  Good morning friends and happy Wednesday.

• 00:03 - 00:07

  Welcome to another day of mindful mornings where we are practicing

• 00:08 - 00:09

  mindfulness.

• 00:10 - 00:12

  Now, what is mindfulness friends?

• 00:12 - 00:14

  It means being fully here

• 00:14 - 00:17

  and focusing on where we are right now.

• 00:17 - 00:20

  It means really noticing what you're feeling,

• 00:21 - 00:23

  what you're thinking, what you want to say

• 00:24 - 00:25

  and what you want to do.

• 00:26 - 00:27

  And noticing the things around you.

• 00:28 - 00:30

  But also noticing what's inside.

• 00:31 - 00:33

  So for today's mindfulness activity.

• 00:33 - 00:36

  As always, we're going to start by taking our deep breath in

• 00:37 - 00:40

  if you like. You can put your hand on your chest, you do not have to

• 00:41 - 00:43

  and you start with your deep breath in

• 00:46 - 00:48

  and out.

• 00:50 - 00:54

  So for our mindfulness activity for today we are

• 00:54 - 00:57

  going to focus on three things we are grateful for

• 00:58 - 01:02

  because sometimes we can focus so much on the negative

• 01:02 - 01:06

  that we forget to look at all the positive things we have in our life

• 01:06 - 01:08

  and all the things we can be grateful for.

• 01:09 - 01:11

  So to practice mindfulness.

• 01:11 - 01:13

  We're also going to think about gratitude.

• 01:14 - 01:16

  So three things you are grateful for

• 01:17 - 01:18

  the first one.

• 01:18 - 01:22

  I want you to go ahead and think about someone you are grateful for.

• 01:23 - 01:26

  It could be anyone at home at school

• 01:26 - 01:29

  at somewhere in the community that you do

• 01:29 - 01:32

  to one person that you are grateful for.

• 01:42 - 01:43

  Got it

• 01:44 - 01:44

  next.

• 01:44 - 01:49

  I want you to think about something you are grateful for that you have at home.

• 01:50 - 01:51

  It could be anything

• 01:51 - 01:55

  it could be as big as you'd like or as small as you'd like.

• 01:55 - 01:56

  One thing

• 01:57 - 01:58

  you are grateful for

• 01:58 - 01:59

  at home.

• 02:00 - 02:04

  Me for example, I am grateful that I have blankets to keep me warm at night.

• 02:05 - 02:08

  So go ahead and think about what you are grateful for

• 02:08 - 02:09

  at home

• 02:15 - 02:16

  and last one friends.

• 02:16 - 02:21

  We are going to think about something that we are grateful for here at school.

• 02:22 - 02:23

  So again,

• 02:23 - 02:26

  it could be a small like having a playground or

• 02:26 - 02:29

  as big as having teachers that care about us.

• 02:29 - 02:34

  So one thing you are grateful for that you have here at school.

• 02:34 - 02:36

  Go ahead and think about that now.

• 02:41 - 02:41

  Mm hmm.

• 02:45 - 02:48

  And as you think about the three things you are grateful for.

• 02:48 - 02:52

  Our moods can change because we focus on the positive and

• 02:52 - 02:55

  we focus on the good things happening in our life.

• 02:56 - 03:00

  So let's go ahead and move on to our affirmations for the day.

• 03:00 - 03:03

  Friends go ahead and repeat after me.

• 03:04 - 03:05
