For many, the thought of working with children can be a scary prospect. In my experience, working to support teenagers is one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever had the privilege of doing. Is it always easy and straightforward? Of course not. But is it worth it? Absolutely! One thing I always remind those I work with who are looking to support the youth generation is that it’s not necessarily the content that we need to adapt for our teens, but it’s the way in which we deliver that content that makes ALL the difference.

As mindfulness teachers, many of us will refer to Jon Kabat-Zinn, the ‘father of contemporary, western mindfulness programmes’. His secular mindfulness is now taught in health settings, schools and workplaces across the world. Jon Kabat-Zinn actually learned mindfulness from several Zen Buddhist teachers, including Thich Nhat Hanh. In an essay in 2017, he said that ‘the mainstreaming of mindfulness has always been anchored in the ethical framework that lies at the very heart of the original teachings of the Buddha’. Rachel says: Our teaching can be greatly enriched by sharing this ancient philosophy that still holds so much value for our lives today.

What do I mean by Mindful Yoga? It is Yoga more concerned with perceiving sensation and our response to it. Very different from western type gym Yoga more concerned with striving and performance. This Yoga exotica may look good on Instagram but has little to do with discernment. Both performance and exercise have important places in our lives but what we call mindful yoga sets out to reduce suffering and to do that we have to be able to discriminate sensation and respond appropriately.
