Mindful Moments Cards / Lynea Gillen

This beautifully illustrated deck of 50 cards with short contemplations invite children and adults alike to thoughtful reflection and self-awareness. Through practice, we can imagine new possibilities, learn to direct our thoughts in positive directions and have greater control over our lives.

For what we think affects how we feel and what we do.

Supporting the social-emotional learning activities and principles laid out in the award-winning book Yoga Calm for Children, and used in Yoga Calm teacher training workshops, Mindful Moments Cards cover a wide range of experience, emotion and imagination. Some help us remember positive events in our lives. Others help us imagine successful futures. All help develop mindfulness, focus and relaxation skills.

Great for home or classroom use. Ages 4 and up.

Sample Cards

Remember a time when a friend listened to you. Who was that friend? How did that make you feel?

Imagine a time when you wanted to befriend a frightened or shy animal. Think of how still you became, and how you carefully encouraged the animal to trust you.

Remember a time when you felt very strong in your body. What were you doing? Who was there?

Think of your favorite tree. Now imagine that you can plant that tree in a special place. Go to that place, dig a hole and plant the tree. Imagine that you can see into the future and watch the tree grow tall.

The cards come with a sheer silver drawstring bag for easy storage.
