Good morning my friends and happy thursday, Welcome to today's Mindful mornings.
- 00:08 - 00:12
Now I'm aware we only have two days of school left.
- 00:12 - 00:15
So as the school year comes to a close,
- 00:15 - 00:18
I think it would be a very great idea
- 00:18 - 00:23
to practice mindfulness by reflecting on how this year went
- 00:24 - 00:24
normally.
- 00:24 - 00:30
Mindfulness means being in the present moment, letting go of your worries,
- 00:30 - 00:33
letting go of the future and just thinking about
- 00:33 - 00:36
the present moment and where we are right now.
- 00:37 - 00:40
But in order for us to make good choices,
- 00:40 - 00:44
smart choices, healthy choices for us right now,
- 00:45 - 00:46
we also have to know
- 00:47 - 00:52
that the lessons that we learned from the past can really help us make those
- 00:52 - 00:58
really great choices now and prepare us even to make better choices in the future.
- 00:58 - 01:01
So I'd like to take this moment friends
- 01:02 - 01:04
for us to think about
- 01:04 - 01:06
how the year went.
- 01:06 - 01:09
So we're gonna start by taking our deep breath in,
- 01:12 - 01:14
fill those lungs with air
- 01:17 - 01:19
and let it go release through your mouth.
- 01:21 - 01:22
We're going to let go of
- 01:23 - 01:25
any tension in our bodies.
- 01:26 - 01:29
We're gonna make sure our bodies feel free
- 01:29 - 01:30
and loose.
- 01:31 - 01:33
We're gonna make sure our bodies
- 01:34 - 01:35
feel calm.
- 01:38 - 01:40
You can take another deep breath in
- 01:41 - 01:41
and
- 01:41 - 01:42
out
- 01:43 - 01:45
if you'd like, You can close your eyes
- 01:46 - 01:48
if you don't want to. You do not have to
- 01:49 - 01:51
I will close my eyes
- 01:51 - 01:53
and asked the question,
- 01:54 - 01:56
was there something this school year
- 01:56 - 01:58
that you did really well.
- 02:00 - 02:02
Something this queer
- 02:02 - 02:06
that you think that you did very, very well.
- 02:07 - 02:07
Hmm,
- 02:19 - 02:20
no.
- 02:20 - 02:26
Was there someone this school year that you think you were very kind to
- 02:27 - 02:29
think about that person
- 02:29 - 02:31
this school year that you think
- 02:32 - 02:34
you were very kind to?
- 02:35 - 02:35
Mhm.
- 02:38 - 02:40
What kind of things did you do
- 02:41 - 02:42
that were kind
- 02:42 - 02:43
to that person?
- 02:44 - 02:46
What were those kind of things?
- 02:48 - 02:48
Mhm.
- 02:54 - 02:57
Will you be able to do those kind things next
- 02:57 - 03:01
year to that same person or too many other people also
- 03:03 - 03:04
do you want to continue
- 03:05 - 03:07
to do those kind things for others?
- 03:08 - 03:08
Mhm.
- 03:13 - 03:15
Let's see. What did we learn this year?
- 03:15 - 03:18
What is one thing that we can think of that we learned
- 03:19 - 03:19
this year?
- 03:31 - 03:32
No,
- 03:32 - 03:38
we think how well this year went or what ways we want to improve for next year.
- 03:38 - 03:44
So being mindfulness can also been reflecting on how things are going so that
- 03:44 - 03:49
we can see how we can improve because there's always room for improvement.
- 03:49 - 03:51
Friends, we can always get better at things.
- 03:53 - 03:53
So
- 03:54 - 03:56
now that we've done that reflection,
- 03:56 - 03:59
I'd like to thank you for joining us on mindful mornings this year
- 03:59 - 04:03
and I can't wait to see what's in store for us next year.
- 04:03 - 04:05
And I hope you enjoy tomorrow's Mindful
- 04:05 - 04:07
mornings where we have another guest speaker.
- 04:08 - 04:10
