Mindfulness & Meditation 1:
Mindfulness and Self-Inquiry

Dear Friend,

Welcome to March and the beginning of our Mindfulness and Meditation journey! This is the third module of our comprehensive Social-Emotional Learning and Physical Education Package.

In this first lesson, we will explore our core values.

Mindfulness Activity of the Week

Core Values

Our values are generally handed down to us from our parents, relatives, or caregivers. We learn them from those whom we trust and those who influence us.

Mindfulness allows us to reflect on our likes and dislikes and why we consider things, people, and experiences as valuable. Over time, experience changes our point of view as well.

Use the Conscious Classroom™ List of Core Values below and check off the values that are most important to you. Discuss the following questions with a friend or family member:

  • Who shares the same values? Who has different values?
  • What does it mean to you if someone values things differently than you do?
  • What steps can you take to seek to understand another person’s values when they differ from your own?
  • How can you foster inclusivity and mutual respect when someone’s values differ from your own?
