Show Notes

In this episode, Flurina sits down with 5th grader Lily to talk about mindfulness in real life — on the playground, in the classroom, and in those moments when big feelings take over.

Together they explore simple tools they’ve learned in class: gratitude practices, ways to calm down during a meltdown, and some easy-to-understand neuroscience about what’s going on in the brain and body.

Later in the conversation, a mother and teacher joins to share how these same mindfulness practices are enriching her own life and the lives of her students.

This episode is full of practical, kid-friendly tips to help children (and the adults who love them) regulate strong emotions and become the steady “driver” of their wonderfully complex bodies and minds.
