Guided Meditation for High School Students

The five count breath

Throughout the day we often need a brief moment to stop and reset. Mindfulness encourages us to use our breath to anchor us in the here and now… anywhere, anytime. High school students, especially, should find this technique can bring a little calm and clarity into their day.

Observe your thoughts to stay focused

High school students often have trouble paying attention and staying focused. With them in mind, this meditation is about awareness of thoughts. The goal is not to push thoughts away, or cling to them, but to simply hold them lightly by observing them. Through learning to observe thoughts, we are less likely to get caught up in them and more able do the things that really matter.
