Hello friends and welcome to Wednesday's Mindful mornings, my name
- 00:04 - 00:07
is MS Lopez and I am your school counselor and
- 00:08 - 00:14
we will be practicing mindfulness today by focusing on the
- 00:14 - 00:15
color purple.
- 00:16 - 00:20
So remember mindfulness is all about being in the here
- 00:21 - 00:24
and the now it means being present, it means focusing
- 00:25 - 00:27
on where you are right now.
- 00:28 - 00:30
So I know a lot of us maybe having thoughts
- 00:31 - 00:35
about things that happened yesterday, things that happened last week,
- 00:36 - 00:38
things that happened on the playground and a lot of
- 00:38 - 00:41
those things may be keeping us from focusing on our
- 00:41 - 00:43
academics on our school work.
- 00:44 - 00:47
So I'm hoping that with mindful mornings we can help
- 00:47 - 00:49
you get started on a really great day by focusing
- 00:50 - 00:52
your attention on being in the present moment.
- 00:53 - 00:58
So mindfulness today we will practice by looking around the
- 00:58 - 01:01
room and noticing everything you see.
- 01:02 - 01:03
That is the color purple.
- 01:05 - 01:09
So go ahead and do that now look around you
- 01:10 - 01:10
and see everything.
- 01:11 - 01:12
That's the color purple.
- 01:31 - 01:33
Well I found lots of things that are the color
- 01:34 - 01:37
purple in my counselling centre because that's my favorite color.
- 01:38 - 01:41
So I'm hoping hoping that with that activity you are
- 01:41 - 01:43
able to focus on where you are right now.
- 01:44 - 01:44
Boys and girls.
- 01:45 - 01:50
And next on our mindful mornings are affirmations where we
- 01:51 - 01:53
remind ourselves that we have the power to create our
- 01:54 - 01:54
own reality.
- 01:56 - 01:58
So repeat after me.
- 01:58 - 02:00
I am proud.
- 02:01 - 02:03
I am proud.
- 02:06 - 02:07
I am a helper.
- 02:08 - 02:10
I am a helper.
- 02:14 - 02:20
I am a friend, I am a friend And the
- 02:20 - 02:21
last one.
- 02:21 - 02:27
I am a good person, I am a good person.
- 02:28 - 02:32
So repeating these affirmations, boys and girls will help us
- 02:32 - 02:34
become the things that we want to be.
- 02:34 - 02:37
So, thank you for joining with me, joining me today,
