Mindfulness for Teenagers
Today’s teens face a unique set of stressors from social media, parents, schools, and society. From trauma and bullying to expectations and responsibilities, teens have to deal with stress coming at them from all angles.
To top it off, teens aren’t quite adults yet. They haven’t learned how to properly manage negative emotions, high-pressure situations, and responsibilities. Mindfulness teaches them not to ignore their emotions. Instead, it trains the mind to take a step back and process situations and thoughts before deciding how to act.
Mindfulness essentially teaches teens how to respond to situations thoughtfully instead of reacting impulsively. This technique is especially beneficial for teens who often face:
- Increased responsibilities from school, college applications, and extracurricular activities
- High-pressure expectations from parents, teachers
- Emotional break-ups, arguments with friends, and stressful social situations
- Emerging symptoms of mental health conditions like depression, anxiety and other mood disorders help teenagers to understand their emotions and how to manage them.
