Description
Abdominal deep breathing (DB) has been used in conjunction with paying attention on purpose to the present moment as a mindfulness tool to help students develop skills for managing emotions. While studies are emerging that investigate outcomes of mindfulness practices with adolescents, how to implement such practices, and students’ reactions to them, requires further research. This study examines a DB intervention in a year 10 science class where the teacher implemented DB exercises in each science lesson. One main outcome reported in this study is that the time to adapt to the DB exercises and experience its effectiveness varied for individual students. Gleaned from our presence in the classroom and speaking with the teacher and students, we suggest nine recommendations for implementing DB exercises in Australian middle years classrooms.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
