What is Meditation? Meditation is an experience of relaxing the body, quieting the mind, and awakening the spirit. The word meditation comes through the Latin “meditatio”, which originally indicated any type of physical or intellectual exercise. The word med means healing.

What is Meditation? Meditation encourages a deepening of consciousness or awareness, and also facilitates a deeper understanding of self and others.

Reasons behind Meditation • Stress Management and Pain Relief • Anger Management • Simple way to relax and clear the mind • Control over Anxiety • Improved awareness, and concentration (creates stillness) • Improve our cognition (ability to think) and helps us to see things more clearly • Develops our sense of self and our spirituality

Meditation. Meditation is now a mainstream practice worldwide millions people practicing on a regular basis. Meditation is the absence of thinking and it is the process of concentrating the mind.

We meditate every day without knowing!!!!! • Day dreaming • Sports/physical activity • Close reading • Listening or playing music • Studying Can you spot the symbol in this picture??? Do you know what it means???

About Meditation There are thousands of meditation techniques that have been developed and practiced for over 5,000 years. Each has specific techniques and skills that can be learned.

Tools Needed for Meditation • Quiet space • Images/symbols • Music/cds • Diary/journal • Candle • Straight backed chair or Matt

Meditation using concentration • Assists with focusing the mind. • This is done by focusing on the breath, image, object or sound (mantra) during the meditation.  • This process allows the mind to achieve clarity and awareness.  To Do Candle meditation- light a candle and have students concentrate on the object talk them through the various aspects of the candle or pick a mantra and have students repeat it over again. Discuss

Receptive Meditation • Assists with becoming more fully present in the moment.  • This is done by being mindful and attentive to feelings, sensation, thoughts, images, smells and experiences without thinking or Reacting to the experience or judging it. (we don’t ask why????) • This helps to gain a calmer, clearer and more non-reactive state of mind and being. 

A Simple receptive meditation is one called Rain. • RAIN is a simple but effective practice to help you use mindfulness to gain a little distance from how things might be affecting you • R Recognise. Just recognise that you have the emotion or feeling • A Allow. Allow the emotion to be present, accept that it's there. No need to get into a fight with yourself over it. Don’t think around it or why it is there • I Investigate. Notice how the emotion manifests itself physically, emotionally and in your thoughts. (bodily sensations, thinking) • N Non-identify. Notice that there is more to you than these thoughts, feelings or physical experiences. You might say, for instance, 'This is not all of me." • This exercise doesn't get rid of your experiences • It changes your relationship with them. That's how receptive meditation helps with many of life's experiences - It changes how you relate to them so that they no longer have the same power to sweep you away. 

Reflective Meditation • Assists with investigating an idea in a systematic way. • Uses disciplined thinking and analysis to reflect upon a compelling question, challenge, idea or project. • Reflects on a verse, a phrase or inspiring idea.  • Brings wisdom and insight into all aspects of our lives. 

Reflective Meditation As Albert Einstein has said, “The important thing is not to stop questioning.” this can be done by looking to nature or reading something or looking at images or listening to music

Generative Meditation • Assists in consciously cultivating and strengthening specific qualities such as: • Patience • Love • Appreciation • Compassion • Humility • Gratitude • Courage  • This form of meditation invites us to actively nurture these strengths of character by thinking, speaking and acting as though the quality is already fully present and alive within us.  • We do this sometimes using guided meditation you will find lots of guided meditations on the Internet.

Benefits of MeditationThe physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual benefits of meditation might include: • higher levels of energy, creativity, and spontaneity • lower blood pressure • increased exercise tolerance • better concentration • decreased stress, depression and anxiety • fewer cravings for alcohol and cigarettes • increased job satisfaction • better relationships with others.

Meditation & Conventional Health There is no research that indicates meditation is harmful or has negative effects whether used alone or in conjunction with conventional Medicine but people have found it helpful with the management of stress and pain.

Importance of Breath For most meditative practices the breath is very important because it is connected to both the mind and the body.  • If we are anxious, frightened or upset our breath tends to be shallow, irregular and quick.  • If we are relaxed, settled or calm, our breath tends to be more slow, deep and regular.

Importance of Breath • Focusing the mind on the continuous rhythm of inhalation and exhalation provides a natural object of meditation. • As you focus your awareness on the breath, your mind becomes absorbed in the rhythm of inhalation and exhalation. • As a result, your breathing will become slower and deeper, and the mind becomes more tranquil and aware.

Try some of these meditation experiences and see which ones you enjoy best...............journal your experiences and the learning about yourself......hopefully by the end of these exercises you will enjoy meditation and make it a regular practice in your daily life. • Mindfulness meditation • Guided meditation • Meditation on music • Meditation using symbols and colour Here are some slides that will give you ideas........ There are lots of guided meditations available from you-tube

10 Ways to Practice Mindfulness Everyday By following the main elements of mindfulness – combining awareness of your breath with focusing on the activity at hand – you will be able to experience every moment as fully as possible. Here are 10 ways to practice mindfulness everyday!

Practice Mindfulness Everyday 1 As you awaken in the morning, bring your attention to your breathing. Instead of letting your mind spin off into yesterday or today, take mindful breaths. Focus on your breathing, and sense the effects of breathing throughout your body. • 2 • Instead of hurrying to your usual routine, • slow down and enjoy something special • about the morning: a flower that bloomed, • the sound of birds, or the wind in the trees.

Practice Mindfulness Everyday 3 On your way to work or school, pay attention to how you walk or drive or ride the transit. Take some deep breaths, relaxing throughout your body. • 4 • When stopped at a red light, pay attention to • your breathing and enjoy the landscape around • you.

Practice Mindfulness Everyday 5 When you arrive at your new destination (work, school, etc.) take a few moments to orient yourself; breathe consciously and calmly, relax your body, then begin. • 6 • When sitting at your desk or keyboard, • become aware of the subtle signs of physical • tension and take a break to stretch or walk • around.

Practice Mindfulness Everyday 7 Use the repetitive events of the day - the ringing telephone, a knock on the door, walking down the hall - as cues for a mini- relaxation. • 8 • Walk mindfully to your car or bus. Can you • see and appreciate something new in the • environment? Can you enjoy walking without • rushing?

Practice Mindfulness Everyday 9 As you return home, consciously make the transition into your home environment. If possible, after greeting your family or housemates, give yourself a few minutes alone to ease the transition. 10 • As you go to sleep, let go of today and • tomorrow, and take some slow, mindful • breaths.

A labryinth is… An ancient symbol that has been rediscovered and adapted for use today. Found in ancient cultures, traditions and countries (China, Ireland, India, England, Scandinavia, France, Crete and others). A symbol of wholeness, healing, and inclusion. To do Give each student a drawing of a labyrinth begin with some basic breathing exercise, put on some music and have them reflect on their own journey through the labyrinth by walking their steps with a pencil. You can play some nice music. Labyrinths as Meditation

Labyrinths As Walking Meditation Some think of walking a labyrinth as a metaphor for life’s journey - a journey to your deepest self, where you come back into the world with a clearer understanding of yourself. Used for walking meditation that assists in: • finding peace and clarity • managing stress • decision making • self-exploration and reflection Walking a labyrinth provides the opportunity to: • examine personal goals • assess talents and abilities • make decisions • evaluate your life’s progress - personally and professionally

Circles and Mandalas Circles are believed to be very powerful in mandalas: • Circles appear in cultures throughout world history • Nature - flowers, snowflakes, trees, sun, moon, etc. • Architecture • The circle is a symbol of wholeness, continuity, connection, unity, harmony and the cycle of life.  • Unlike other shapes, the circle flows and has no hard edges or angles.  • Circles are believed to help individuals focus inward.

Place the people who are closest into the me circle and work outwards. (play some music to help with this exercise) Following the exercise have students look at why they placed people in certain circles...if they were to change any of the relationships what would they be/why/how. What would they change/not change........... Use appropriate questions to do this. Circles Meditation on connections Begin with a basic breathing exercise Give students a sheet with the circles and ask them to list all people involved in their life (be specific) Then ask them to use the circles to categorise people according to who is closest

Coloring Mandalas • If you choose to draw or color a mandala it will tap into your creativity without any need for artistic expertise. • The process of drawing or coloring can sooth and nourish you. • Coloring mandalas is a great way to start using mandalas in your everyday life.

Coloring Mandalas Here are some tips on how to get started: • You will need crayons, colored pencils, paints, pastels, markers in various colors. • You can download mandalas from the internet. Here are just a few web sites that offer downloads: • Coloring Castle • 30 Minute Mandalas • Mandala Project • Free mandalas • Find a quiet and comfortable place where you will not be interrupted. • Take a moment to relax your mind and body. • Take three deep breaths. With each breath breathe in love and let go of any tension and fear or anything that has been bothering you.

Coloring Mandalas • Lay out all of your coloring utensils and simply start coloring. Don’t give much thought to the colors you choose or if they match, let your instinct choose. There is no wrong way to color. • Once you are finished coloring in the mandala take a moment to look at it. Notice the colors, the shapes and how they make you feel. • You may find that writing about your experience and recording your thoughts may be helpful.

Transcript: Free Read PowerPoint Project Judith Rumelt, better known by her pen name Cassandra Clare, is an American author of young adult fiction. Main Characters Summary Prominent literary item Will Herondale-Will has dark hair and ocean blue eyes. Will is rude and cruel because he believes everyone that loves him will die. He believes this because a demon put a 'curse' on him. Tessa Gray- Tessa has blonde hair and grey eyes. She is very witty and enjoys literature. Recommendation of book Setting Jem Carstairs-Jem has silver hair and eyes, due to the drug he was tortured with before his family was killed. He plays the violin and is very kind, caring, and lovable. The most unique thing in Clockwork Angel is that there are supernatural occurrences such as demons, shape shifters, witches, vampires, and werewolves, etc. I definitely recommend Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare. I recommend this book because it uses great figurative language, such as "The machine walked like a man." Also, "There was a boy standing in front of her. He couldn´t have been much older than she was-seventeen or possibly eighteen. He was dressed in what looked like workman´s clothes-a frayed black jacket, trousers, and tough-looking boots. He wore no waistcoat, and thick leather straps crisscrossed his waist and chest. Attached to the straps were weapons-daggers and folding knives and things that looked like blades of ice. In His left hand-slim and long fingered-was bleeding where she had gashed the back of it with her pitcher. But that wasn´t what made her stare. He had the most beautiful face she had ever seen. Tangled black hair and eyes like blue glass. Elegant cheekbones,and long, thick lashes. He looked like every fictional hero she´d ever conjured up in her head. Tessa Gray goes to London to live with her brother. When she arrives Tessa is captured by twin sisters dubbed 'the Dark Sisters'. She was tortured and forced to use her gift of shape shifting for evil until Will Herondale rescues her. He then takes her to the institute, a place for shadowhunters to be cared for. Tessa meets the residents of the institute, Charlotte Branwell, the head of the institute, Henry Branwell, Charlotte's husband and inventor of a many great inventions, Jessamine Lovelace, girly and against all things shadowhunter, Jem Carstairs, a kind but very ill shadowhunter. Presentation Themes Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare Most unique thing in the book Presentation by Canaan Hall Clockwork Angel takes place in the institute, and the Dark Sister's home. The institute is an old church with very many rooms for passing visitors. The Dark Sister's house is large but sparsly furnished, in Tessa's room there is a bed with restraints, a mirror, and a nightstand with a few books. The themes for Clockwork angel are; you always need friends that you can trust, don't judge someone by their looks you don't know what they are going through, and even someone you wouldn't expect could be the hero. Cassandra Clare One prominent literary item in the book is personification. Personification is used throughout Clockwork Angel, such as "The machine walked like a man." Another example is, "The door creaked with a noise that sounded like a scream."

Transcript: Templates The key to generic programs a simple code! Output? Answer Namespaces Namespace is a feature added in C++ and not present in C. A namespace is a declarative region that provides a scope to the identifiers (names of the types, function, variables etc) inside it. Multiple namespace blocks with the same name are allowed. Templates Templates Templates are powerful features of C++ which allows you to write generic programs. In simple terms, you can create a single function or a class to work with different data types using templates. Advantages: Readability Flexibility Re-usability Function Template FUnction Templates A single function template can work with different data types at once but, a single normal function can only work with one set of data types. Normally, if you need to perform identical operations on two or more types of data, you use function overloading. However, a better approach would be to use function templates because you can perform the same task writing less and maintainable code. Example Sometimes, you need a class implementation that is same for all classes, only the data types used are different. Normally, you would need to create a different class for each data type OR create different member variables and functions within a single class. This will unnecessarily bloat your code base and will be hard to maintain, as a change is one class/function should be performed on all classes/functions. Class Template Class Templates Example virtual functions virtual functions Virtual functions ensure that the correct function is called for an object, regardless of the type of reference (or pointer) used for function call. They are mainly used to achieve Run-time polymorphism. The prototype of virtual functions should be same in base as well as derived class. They are always defined in base class and overridden in derived class. It is not mandatory for derived class to override Example Pass by reference Pass-by-reference means to pass the reference of an argument in the calling function to the corresponding formal parameter of the called function. The called function can modify the value of the argument by using its reference passed in. Does not copy the arguments. The formal parameter is an alias for the argument. References cannot be NULL.
