For 1½ hours, 10 girls from the Singapore Girls' Home stepped out of their daily routine to do something quite unusual - handstands, feet-stomping and paying attention to breathing in and out.
They were part of the first "mindfulness" session organised by the EtonHouse Community Fund, an independent charity of the EtonHouse Education Group, in October last year.
