The Learner will practice a body awareness exercise as a relaxtion strategy.
Here, the Learner listens to voiceover instructions to practice a mindful body awareness activity and collect crystals in the Crystal Cave boat. In this lesson, the Learner will be in a virtual boat. At specific (and predictable) times in this sequence, the boat feels as if it is moving slowly through a crystal cave, even though the Learner remains in the same place. It is best that the Learner stay seated during this lesson so that he/she does not lose balance. Please check in regularly to ensure that the Learner is feeling ok with the virtual movement. The Learner begins the experience on a boat in a crystal cave. The Coach taps START. Voiceover instructions are presented to the Learner, but the Coach moves each step of the lesson forward. The Learner begins by finding the crystals that are sparkling. The instructions direct the Learner to do some simple physical activities that involve flexing, holding and releasing muscles. The first set of instructions focuses the Learner's attention on the shoulders. The second set of instructions focuses the Learner's attention on the hands and the third focuses the Learner's attention on the feet. Each set of directions also include instructions for taking deep breaths. Each set of instructions has 4 steps. The banners are advanced via buttons on the Coach’s device. If needed, the Coach can restart the sequence of banners using the "Restart Sequence" button. After the 4th banner, the Coach can tap the button so that the crystal moves from the side of the cave to the Learner's boat. After the first set of instructions is complete, and the crystal has appeared in the boat, the Learner confirms that he/she is ready to move. In order to move, the Learner looks at the front of the boat. If the Learner looks off to the side, the boat will stop. This way the Learner may stop the movement at any time. This lesson ends when the 3rd crystal has been collected.
