Branches Programme: 8 week follow on course
Moving on from the initial MiSP course foundation programme, this next 10 week programme further cultivates students’ sense of kindness, openness, compassion and non-judgement required to live a life where they are kinder to themselves and those around them. We hone further mindfulness techniques such as awareness of the senses, visualisation and reflection as well as ‘mindfulness in action’.
Blooms Programme: 10 week final course
Moving into this final branch of the Mindful Tree programme, young people will have completed the Roots (MiSP) foundation programme, as well as the Branches programme where the focus was on cultivating greater kindness, openness and non-judgmental for themselves and for those around them. The Blooms programme focuses on overall resilience of the group and any particular needs that the group has mentioned they would like further guidance on. This could be anything from mindfulness techniques which cultivate a greater sense of focus and goal setting to increasing students’ sense of creativity and open-mindedness to dealing with difficult situations, people and emotions such as frustration, anger, impatience and regret. Mindfulness techniques used in this final course include awareness of breath, awareness of all the senses, awareness of thoughts, various visualisation techniques, noting technique, mindful movement and mindfulness in action.
