Heartfulness-Brighter Minds Programme
When the mind is calm and clear, the heart reveals its secrets.
Fourteen students along with two teachers attended an 8-day value-based programme, Heartfulness, from 18th March to 25th March 2023, at SET Apartments, Shimla. The programme was a joint effort of the Heartfulness Education Trust and the Salwan Education Trust. It aimed to acquaint the students with the principles and techniques of heartfulness meditation and enable them to reflect on their strengths and weaknesses. The programme included various enrichment activities such as Yoga, Nature Walk and Meditation.
Some of the highlights of the programme are:
- Several brain and relaxation exercises were taught to the children.
- Art, music, and dance sessions helped children to express themselves better.
- Journal writing provided a structured outlet for organizing their thoughts.
The Heartfulness program was an enriching experience for students as it enabled them to manage stress and improve their overall well-being.
