Meditation is found in all religious traditions. In Christianity it is the heart of the contemplative teaching of Jesus on prayer. In recent years its recovery in the mainstream of the church’s life at all levels, has led to the formation of a strong global community. One of the most significant developments in the world of Christian Meditation is the way in which children and young people are embracing this form of prayer.

Meditation, in the Christian tradition, is often called the prayer of the heart. Meditation builds community and you are invited, through this website to become part of this world wide community. 

The health benefits of mindfulness meditation for adults are far-reaching, and many of these positive benefits may extend to child practitioners as well. Research has linked the practice of cultivating a nonjudgmental awareness of the present moment to lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol greater  emotional stability.

We Teaching Children Meditation and Mindfulness

In today’s high-tech, fast-paced world, it’s pretty easy to become over-stimulated. Busy schedules directing us to go, go, go and electronic devices constantly in our hands, sucking us into scattered digital directions make inner-peace a fleeting want. Enter tension and fatigue. This is true for us, as adults, so imagine children as they absorb the energy of their parents and of the environment which they live in. Then, we send them off to school, where they are expected to concentrate and focus. We all love our children and want the very best for them, so why not consider a tool that can help them become more mindful and better able to cope with all that is tossed into their world?

Meditation (or mindfulness practice) is a beautiful way to stay grounded. It teaches us to be in the present moment so that we can savor the good times while better managing the trying ones. It helps us to stay connected with our true essence, building our sense of self-love and worth. As an adult, to be able to accomplish all of the above is a pretty remarkable feat. Imagine learning these tools as a young child and then being able to use them your entire life! What if an entire generation of children were blessed with this gift? While mindfulness is catching on and currently being taught in a handful of schools across the country, it is largely up to the parents to teach this powerful tool.

These tips that I’m about to share are my own experience as a parent and what has worked in our family and they are geared towards younger children, but much of it can apply to older kids as well. (If you are an adult looking to learn more about mediation, you may want to.

Meditation with Children (Parents & Teachers)

Introducing Mindfulness Meditation to Young Children

Lead by example. As a parent, it is most important to first develop your own meditation practice and then show your children the way. They will naturally become curious as they so often want to emulate the behaviors they see in their parents and others whom they look up to.

Ask them for examples of different experiences: when something made them really happy, or really sad, a time they felt upset or their feelings were hurt, a time they felt scared. Give a few of your own examples to show them that we all feel this same array of emotions on a regular basis. Even young children, who seem to have such simple lives, still have a lot to sort through and deal with. They may share some emotions such as: happy on a fun family adventure, upset when mommy or daddy wouldn’t let them do what they wanted, sad when a family member or pet became ill, or feeling hurt when a friend in school said something mean. For children that are a bit older, the standardized testing system seems to be a source of worry. 

Meditation can help settle the overwhelming feelings and bring them to a calmer place in their thoughts. Being able to get outside of the whirlwind to just observe instead of being engulfed is truly a powerful gift.

Teaching kids meditation  can go a long way in helping them boost awareness and control their moods.

“The magic moment where they understand mindfulness is when they can catch themselves not paying attention. That’s their chance to control their impulsivity,

It helps them stop themselves from doing things like jumping on the couch or whacking their younger brother.”

The focused awareness on the present moment, generally cultivated through a meditation practice can help to curb kids’ impassivity.

Give Meditation to your Children

As we start educating the child’s intellect, we should also teach him meditation. Just as the child comes to understand science, he should simultaneously understand religion. As his head grows brighter let his heart also grow full of light. Let him not grow up only to know about, let him grow up also to be. Let it not be only his possessions that grow, let him grow too! Let not only his exterior expand, let his interiority also have a depth, just as the trees rise up in the sky but their roots go deep underground. The deeper the roots go underground the higher the tree rises in the sky….

Give your children meditation as well as thinking. Thinking will help them to be successful in the world, and meditation will help them towards success in the divine. Give them thought to sharpen their intellects, give them meditation to nurture the sacred in their hearts. 

Benefits of Kid’s Meditation

Meditation helps children in a variety of ways.

It helps reduce stress, strengthens the immune system, can improve relationships at home & at school , decreases aggressiveness and anxieties, improves behavior and attitude, improves focus, memory & concentration and promotes inner peace.

Kids’ meditation has also proven effective in helping kids release negative thoughts and behaviors and in building self-confidence. We all want our children to be stress free. Mindfulness and meditation are fantastic tools that kids can learn at an early age which will help them throughout their lives.

Because of the wonderful benefits of meditation, more parents are deciding to try  meditation with their children and finding that it really does help their children become more peaceful. Not only that, but because of the rise in self-esteem, children who meditate also are connecting with their inner self easier and listening to that wise inner wizard.

When kids are able to do this, they truly start to feel their rightful place in the world, relationships improve, and peer pressure is much less of an issue and kids are learning the value of experience without being overwhelmed by it.

Using  meditation regularly, children decrease their stress over body-issues, school-related stresses, anxieties and worry. Children learn not only how wonderful they truly are, but they also learn to release that stress and anxiety with various techniques used in the guided meditations.

Many parents are not aware of the amount of stress kids are under. But in a world filled with electronics, shopping and wanting to keep up with the Joneses, kids really need a space where they can take time out and define what they want to do in their lives and explore their True Self.

A University of California, Los Angeles study found second- and third-graders who practiced “mindful” meditation techniques for 30 minutes twice a week for eight weeks had improved behavior and scored higher on tests requiring memory, attention and focus than the non meditators.

Another study of more than 3,000 children in the San Francisco Unified School District found a dramatic improvement in math test scores and overall academic performance among students who practiced transcendental meditation, a form of mediation that promotes relaxation and “an awakening” of the mind. The study also found a decrease in student suspensions, expulsions and dropout rates.

And other recent studies have demonstrated the ability of “mindfulness” techniques, especially those used in meditation  reduce impulsiveness, control emotions and ease stress.

Children today are certainly more stressed out than their parents likely realize. One in five children said they worried a lot or a great deal about things going on in their lives, and more than 30 percent admitted to such stress-related symptoms as difficulty sleeping, according to the American Psychological Association’s annual Stress in America report. Yet, the same report found that only 8 percent of parents were aware that their children experienced any stress at all.
