Mindfulness Club

Yesterday at our Mindfulness Club meeting, I had two students engage in sensory work. They used slime, foam, and dough to create Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) sounds and they added things like glitter and LED lights for an added visual effect. ASMR is a pleasurable response to specific stimuli, such as: sounds, imagery, physical sensations, and interpersonal interactions.

At our next meeting we are going to work with LEGOs!
