Hello las palmas and welcome to Another day of Mindful
- 00:03 - 00:04
mornings with MS Lopez.
- 00:05 - 00:07
I am school counselor and I'm so glad that you
- 00:07 - 00:08
are joining us today.
- 00:09 - 00:11
It has now been a week that we have been
- 00:11 - 00:12
practicing mindfulness.
- 00:13 - 00:15
Remember to be patient with yourself as it takes a
- 00:16 - 00:17
lot of days to develop a habit.
- 00:18 - 00:21
And mindfulness is one of those trickier ones because there's
- 00:21 - 00:24
so many things that distract us during the day that
- 00:24 - 00:26
stop us from being in the present moment.
- 00:27 - 00:29
So that's what mindfulness is, remember.
- 00:30 - 00:33
It's not thinking about our past or future or all
- 00:34 - 00:36
the thoughts that maybe going on in our mind of
- 00:37 - 00:40
things that happened this morning or last night or even
- 00:40 - 00:41
the week before.
- 00:42 - 00:45
We're practicing ways to get us to be in the
- 00:45 - 00:47
present moment so that we can focus on what we
- 00:48 - 00:49
need to learn for the day.
- 00:50 - 00:53
So there are many ways to practice mindfulness And today
- 00:53 - 00:57
I am choosing our mindfulness jar, I made this a
- 00:57 - 00:59
few years ago and it has helped me practice that
- 00:59 - 01:02
mindfulness and helped me calm down in those moments of
- 01:03 - 01:04
anger that we all have.
- 01:05 - 01:08
So I go ahead and shake up my glitter mindfulness
- 01:09 - 01:13
star and I just watch all the glitter calm down.
- 01:18 - 01:20
Sometimes I take a deep breath while I watch the
- 01:20 - 01:20
twitter go down.
- 01:23 - 01:43
Or sometimes I just simply watch and as we watch
- 01:43 - 01:45
the letter go down we can see all of our
- 01:45 - 01:50
thoughts and worries just like the letter fading away and
- 01:50 - 01:53
were able to focus on the present moment you ever
- 01:54 - 01:55
want to make a mindfulness jar with me?
- 01:56 - 01:56
Let me know.
- 01:57 - 02:01
So let's move on to our next section of mindful
- 02:01 - 02:05
mornings with our I am informations where we remind ourselves
- 02:05 - 02:08
that we create our own reality and we can become
- 02:08 - 02:12
whatever we want to become by simply stating it by
- 02:12 - 02:13
bringing it into reality.
- 02:14 - 02:17
Yes of course we need to follow some actions and
- 02:17 - 02:18
behaviors to make it true.
- 02:19 - 02:21
But by saying it we start that process.
- 02:23 - 02:23
So repeat with me.
- 02:24 - 02:25
Number one I am friendly.
- 02:28 - 02:32
Number two I am smart, I am smart.
- 02:34 - 02:40
Number three I am wise, I am wise and last
- 02:40 - 02:43
one go ahead and repeat this one really loud.
- 02:43 - 02:44
I am a learner.
- 02:45 - 02:46
I am a learner.
- 02:48 - 02:50
We're all learners, boys and girls, whether you're in first
- 02:50 - 02:53

- 02:53 - 02:55
