“Similar to the last session, we would like you to work on 2 things:

• The first one is continuing to keep your mindfulness practice journal like what we have been doing for Session One. (Take-Away Activity 2.11.1 – Mindfulness Practice Worksheet)
• The second one is to continue to keep a log or journal to reflect on how you have been able to apply some of the CHAMP skills in dealing with your stresses or challenges. (Take-Away Activity 2.11.2 – CHAMP Application Worksheet)”

Facilitator reviews instructions on handout with participants.

Take-Away Activity 2.11.1 – Mindfulness Practice Worksheet

Mindfulness can be practiced anywhere and anytime.

• It simply means doing ordinary things mindfully – it can be brushing teeth, taking a shower, eating breakfast, taking a walk, or talking to a friend, etc.
• Doing it mindfully means you give 100% of your attention to doing this task.
• Sitting mindfullness practice can help us to get grounded and develop mindful concentration. You may access a guided mindfulness exercise – (Clouds in the Sky) – developed by CAAT at https://youtu.be/JyFqi6e9ZgY
• When you first begin to practice mindfulness, reflecting on the experience may bring joy and insight.

We invite you to take a few opportunities to practice mindfulness on your own over the coming days. You can use this worksheet to make notes about your activities. Please bring this sheet with you to the next session for group sharing.

Do you find yourself responding to challenges, or experiences that contribute to stress and suffering differently? In the following table, please record how you have applied CHAMP learning to respond to challenges.
