. . Teaching Meditation We all know that a child should be stress-free for better growth. However, in the last few decades, due to some reasons, children experience lots of pressure in their daily routine in terms of academic, social, and commercial aspects. These pressures may be from within children themselves, as well as from parents, teachers, peers and the larger society. Even a minor hassle like losing their homework can stress them out. They can be mentally and physically exhausted from all these issues, so, for that reason children need opportunities where they can take time out each day to relax and focus. Meditation offers this break and helps kids function more effectively and clearly. Studies have proven that having a regular meditation practice can do everything from alleviating anxiety to lowering your blood pressure, improving concentrating power which is also fruitful for their studies. And many of these benefits can be experienced by relaxing the mind for a mere 5-10 minutes a day. With the help of this project I was able to educate the kids of my locality about meditation and explained to them the techniques of Breath-focused meditation, which is a very basic yet eminently powerful meditation practice. I am thankful to the English Department of Vasanta college for Women for providing me with this insightful assignment. By Deepanjali.
