Good morning Las palmas celebrity he says and welcome
- 00:05 - 00:10
to another day of mindful mornings where we practice mindfulness
- 00:10 - 00:13
so that we can prepare our minds and we
- 00:13 - 00:16
can prepare our bodies for another day of learning.
- 00:17 - 00:22
Imagine if you were on a roller coaster and as soon as you get off your body
- 00:22 - 00:27
is still full of that energy and then they had to do a math problem really quick.
- 00:27 - 00:30
I think it would be a little bit difficult for some students.
- 00:30 - 00:33
That's why we have to ground ourselves.
- 00:33 - 00:37
Which means we have to come back into the present moment.
- 00:37 - 00:41
We have to come our body to allow our mind to think
- 00:41 - 00:42
so
- 00:42 - 00:46
for today's mindfulness activity where should I move this?
- 00:46 - 00:50
We are going to practice the art of
- 00:50 - 00:55
touch. So that's one of our senses touch.
- 00:56 - 01:00
So I would like you to bring out your hand right in front of you
- 01:00 - 01:05
and get your other finger whichever one you would like to choose.
- 01:06 - 01:08
And I would just simply like you to
- 01:09 - 01:12
touch your hands the inside of your palm
- 01:13 - 01:15
and focus on the feeling
- 01:16 - 01:19
that you are experiencing on your palm.
- 01:23 - 01:27
Just focus on that one sense right now. Touch.
- 01:31 - 01:32
Yeah
- 01:34 - 01:37
the hard part here is we can be thinking about something else.
- 01:37 - 01:40
We can be looking at other things.
- 01:40 - 01:46
We could be listening to noises but I would like you to just come into this moment and
- 01:46 - 01:49
focus on the touch.
- 01:58 - 01:59
What does it feel like
- 02:03 - 02:06
If you're doing it too rough It might be a little hurtful
- 02:07 - 02:10
if you're doing it very softly it might tickle you.
- 02:11 - 02:12
What does it feel like?
- 02:14 - 02:17
We're focusing on just the sense of touch,
- 02:21 - 02:23
two fingers, maybe
- 02:23 - 02:24
three.
- 02:26 - 02:31
And that is just a very short mindfulness activity that you can try now.
- 02:31 - 02:36
I know some of these might feel weird, awkward, kind of silly,
- 02:36 - 02:38
but the more you practice them,
- 02:38 - 02:42
the more your body will get used to doing these kinds of things.
- 02:42 - 02:43
To prepare itself.
- 02:44 - 02:49
Some onto our affirmations where we all remind ourselves
- 02:49 - 02:52
the power we have to create our reality.
- 02:52 - 02:54
We do have choice
- 02:55 - 03:00
and most of the time boys and girls, we tell ourselves the most meanest things.
- 03:01 - 03:03
If we talk to ourselves
- 03:03 - 03:08
or if we talk to our friends the way sometimes we talk to ourselves,
- 03:08 - 03:11
we probably wouldn't have any friends because
- 03:11 - 03:14
sometimes instead of giving ourselves positive feedback,
- 03:14 - 03:19
we really talked down to ourselves and that can really mess up with how you feel.
- 03:20 - 03:21
So repeat after me.
- 03:22 - 03:23
I am
- 03:23 - 03:24
important.
- 03:26 - 03:28
I am important.
- 03:30 - 03:33
I am in control of my actions.
- 03:35 - 03:36
I am
- 03:36 - 03:39
in control of my actions.
- 03:40 - 03:42
I am prepared.
- 03:43 - 03:45
I am prepared
- 03:48 - 03:51
And last one, I am successful.
- 03:52 - 03:54
I am successful.
- 03:57 - 03:58
So everyone,
- 03:58 - 04:03
these affirmations not only help us get motivated for what we want to be,
- 04:03 - 04:10
but it also helps our inner selves have a better sense of who we are, who we want to be,
- 04:10 - 04:13
so that we come to the world with this positive
- 04:13 - 04:16
mindset and we are not talking down on ourselves.
- 04:16 - 04:17
We want to
- 04:17 - 04:19
rule the way we feel about ourselves.
- 04:20 - 04:23
So thank you for joining me today online home mornings,
- 04:23 - 04:24
and I will see you for thursday.
