Serenity is a feeling of peacefulness and calmness, even though you might be in a stressful, challenging or difficult situation.

Research on children raised with an understanding of serenity is continually growing.

Not only are parents teaching children practices that help children explore calmness, thoughtfulness, and reflection, but childminding centres and schools are also.

Children are taught serenity in various ways, such as when their environment is clutter-free and organised, they feel safe and secure.

Additionally, they feel calmer when they have quiet time to think and reflect without distractions.

Consequently, benefits result in reduced anxiety and stress, improved social skills, and health benefits like sleep quality.

Google Trends states that 15% of Australians practice meditation, and meditation is more prevalent in Australia than in any other country.

Meditation encourages deep breathing and stillness.

In the stillness, contemplation happens, and thoughts come to mind about how to respond to whatever you are dealing with.

Learning to listen to yourself and your instincts and trust yourself is essential for children – and adults.

Teach your child to trust their gut feelings and ask themselves questions to guide them in the right direction.

Serenity is a feeling of peace and calm despite what’s happening around you.

It’s making conscious decisions and choices about how to react and behave.

Serenity is not ignoring your feelings and emotions but not letting them rule you.

When a child, or any person, has a good understanding of self-awareness, they can regulate their emotions, have self-confidence, and impact their mental health positively.
