Kendama offers a unique and engaging alternative for mindfulness practice by demanding complete focus and hand-eye coordination. This captivating activity not only helps to clear the mind of distractions but also fosters a meditative state through its rhythmic motions and the challenge of mastering intricate tricks, making it an excellent tool for cultivating presence and concentration.
Formerly known as the Sweets Kendama's Foundation, Mindfulness Through Play has embodied this aspect of kendama in their educational programs, which merge fun with mental well-being. These programs not only enhance physical skills like dexterity and hand-eye coordination, but also underscore mental health benefits, offering a novel approach to mindfulness. Through various exercises, it encourages living in the moment, stress reduction, and compassionate play.
