Turner Contemporary's video: Mindful Soundscapes Part 1 - Creative Mindfulness

How much can you notice when you really pay attention to your senses? Practice mindful listening in a guided listening exercise, and translate what you hear into a visual soundscape! You will need: A comfortable seat, a pen or pencil, and your choice of art materials - paint, pastels, pens, etc. Before we start listening, bring yourself to the present moment and join in with this colourful breathing exercise. You may want to stand for this warm up. In support of the recovery curriculum, the Creative Mindfulness series has been designed as a school resource to help students relax, recuperate, and refocus in class, as well as to inspire creativity. We encourage teachers to use these videos in the classroom as a lesson starter for any subject, to begin or end the day, or as a creative prompt for art lessons. Each of the 7 activities have been broken down into step by step chapters you can join in with. The resources are suitable for KS3 students, but students and adults of all ages can use these resources to find a moment of creative calm. Videos presented by artists Ted Rogers and Holly Hunter.
