Slow Stone

Directions

Imagine you are a stone sitting along the side of a pond basking in the warmth of natural sunlight. You hear frogs in the distance. A child comes along, picks you up, and throws you in the air. You feel free and wildly excited as you soar throught the air and into the pond below. You land in the water and a warm sensation surrounds you. You slowly sink lower and lower, becoming enveloped by the warmth. A fish swims by as you slowly sink deeper and deeper. You completely relax your senses as your weight sinks down into the earth below, until the soil covers you like a warm blanket. You feel safe, connected, and at peace. You have found the place where you have always belonged. Deeply inhale through your nose and slowly exhale out your mouth. Now gently open your eyes.

Finish

By completing this exercise, you get to give a player of your choice a point.

False

Statement

Mindfulness is always easy.

Reasoning

Stressful situations arise and willpower fades. You may not be aware of when toyr body is having a psychal reaction to stress or you have spent a lot of time worrying. Mindfulness is also being aware of when you personally need to reconnect to the moment and invest more time in the here and now.

TRUE/FALSE CARD

Objective

answer correctly

Answer

True

Statement

Mindfulness helps people use more of their brains when angry.

Reasoning

When you get angry, the Frontal Lobe of your brain loses the ability to make wise decisions. If you use mindfulness techniques, this will slow down your thought process. You have the power to bring your awareness to your surroundings and you can quickly regain control of yourself.

VISUALIZATION CARD

Brushing Your Teeth

Directions

Imagine that you are standing in front of the sink in your bathroom. Pick up your toothbrush and feel the dry bristles, hard plastic, and handle in your hand. Turn on the cold water. Focus on the water as it flows through each bristle. Notice the sound of the water as it rushes past the brush and down the drain. Pick up your toothpaste and observe the texture as you squish it and gently squeeze it onto your toothbrush. Bring the toothbrush under your nose as you smell the burst of minty scent. Bring the toothbrush to your teeth. Feel the pressure against the enamel. How does the wetness feel on your gums? how does it feel when you rinse the water between your teeth? Spit out the last mouthful of water and take a deep breath in. Doesn't your breath bring joy into this moment?
