Frequently Asked Questions

Mindfulness is paying attention, on purpose, to what’s happening right now without judging it. When you are mindful, you create wellbeing in your body. You will learn lots of fun ways to practice paying attention as you use your Breathe Move Journal.

The journaling in the Kids Super Journal is about noticing what you are thinking and feeling in the moment (mindfulness) and writing or drawing about it. There is no right or wrong way to notice and no right or wrong thing to journal about.

These are some of the research-backed benefits of journaling and mindfulness for kids (and adults!):

• Improve engagement and meaning in the classroom

• Improve working memory and cognitive functioning

• Increase self-regulation and boost mood

• Change grey matter in the brain

• Improve symptoms of PTSD

• Foster the ability to find meaning in trauma and create positive life changes after a traumatic event

• Decrease rumination and promote action

• Reduce stress and anxiety

• Strengthen the immune system

• Promote self-awareness

• Reduce symptoms of depression

• Reduce physical symptoms related to health issues

In addition, Journaling for Kids can:

• Create a healthy, safe outlet to deal with “big feelings”

• Improve writing and reading skills

• Enhance verbal and written communication skills

• Provide a safe outlet for feelings or thoughts that are challenging or uncomfortable to express

• Learn to identify and explore their emotions, especially “taboo” emotions like anger or hopelessness

• See both positives as well as negatives

• Gain insight into their motives and the motives of others

• Plan out difficult conversations in advance
