Staying in the moment through activity can be just as effective as quiet, seated meditation. Physical and focused activities such as rock climbing, trampolining, skipping and running, can be enough, due to the repetition, to keep us in the 'here and now'. Activities such as *gloop and clay manipulation, can also provide the necessary sensory stimulous to enable stillness of the mind. As a stress ball can provide an adult with the 'release' to maintain focus, a fidget toy or textured cushion, may provide enough of a distraction to develop concentration - or the recipe to concentration. By recipe, I refer to
if this, (the recognised texture)
then that (the act of concentration).
*gloop - cornflour and water
