Teaching Meditation Skills and Self-Control to Children
Teaching meditation skills to children involves training them to control their attention by first learning to ignore impulses, a key step in meditation. This can be done by engaging in fun activities such as games that require them to focus and restrain impulses, like the 'sniffer gobbler' game. Another step is fixed point gazing, a practice that helps in controlling impulses by focusing the mind on a single point, resulting in improved self-control. The next step involves redirecting the mind's focus to a specific task, like chanting 'home' to enhance the feeling of vibration in the body. By mastering these steps, children can prepare themselves for meditation, which encompasses focusing techniques and cultivating a state of mind conducive to deep concentration.
