Teachers, save “Mindful Recess: A Rainbow Walk” to assign it to your class.

Let's go on a Rainbow Walk! This is a simple, fun way to practice mindfulness using our sense of sight. Focusing on the world through a single sense is a powerful way to bring our body and mind into the present moment. In this practice, we use our keen sense of observation to slow down, notice and appreciate what is right in front of us!
