DIY Art Activity: Mindfulness Jar

Mindfulness is the practice of being fully present in time and space, and being aware of our surroundings without being reactive or overwhelmed by them. You can achieve this mental state by focusing the senses and emotions on the present moment. This practice involves acceptance, which means there is no judgement of right or wrong, good or bad; when you are mindful, things simply are.

This kind of serenity might be hard to imagine, but it’s something you can experience anytime. You can even find unique ways to experience it with your family. Try creating a Mindfulness Jar. This is a simple and fun activity to do with kids or adults of any age. It can serve as an introduction to the practice of mindfulness or just be a visual metaphor for the interplay of life’s chaos and stillness.
