Drawing to Music
Mindfulness • 12m
This exercise practices active listening and connecting our senses to our feelings. Think about how the music makes you feel. Does it make you want to draw slowly or quickly? Does it make you want to use specific colors? Bright ones, Dark ones? What kind of shapes are you thinking of? Does it make you want to use round edges like circles or sharp ones like a square?

This song can help build mind and body awareness in our young friends. Sing along as we feel the energy in our palms, work on our spinal alignment, focus on our breath and use the vibration of "OM'' build the strength of our voices. This is a great activity to refocus and shift gears.
