Since the course 2017/2018, in CEIP Antonio Machado, we started participating on "mindfulness sessions". 

​

But we want to share the work that our students in the third course of primary are doing. They are participating in a "Mindfulness workshop" in our values subject. The workshop has the collaboration of Nieves Álvarez, who belongs to "Fundación para la Educación y el Desarrollo Transpersonal" (Foundation for education and transpersonal development). The workshop will take 12 sessions which are going to be done in group every Friday.
