introduction
“Cultivating Attention in Activities Part 1,” helps students explore how an impulse, like an emotional spark, can escalate and potentially lead to harmful behaviors. Using the metaphor of a spark becoming a forest fire, the lesson teaches students to use attention skills including mindfulness, heedfulness, and monitoring awareness to catch impulsive reactions at an early stage before they grow out of control. Through scenarios and reflection, students learn to apply these skills to foster greater self-awareness and self-control. The aim is to make intentional choices that align with personal values and promote well-being.
