Good morning and happy Tuesday las palmas Elementary.
- 00:06 - 00:09
Welcome to another day of mindful mornings
- 00:09 - 00:13
where every day you are practicing mindfulness.
- 00:14 - 00:16
Every day you are getting better
- 00:16 - 00:19
at tuning into your own body,
- 00:19 - 00:24
listening to what your body needs and giving it that mindful
- 00:24 - 00:27
moment that will get us ready for a great day.
- 00:27 - 00:33
I know we may have lots of thoughts and exciting news or maybe worries,
- 00:33 - 00:36
but when we're in school,
- 00:36 - 00:40
having a mindful morning is a great way to start the day so that
- 00:40 - 00:44
we can focus on what we need to for that day in school.
- 00:45 - 00:49
It's not that we are forgetting about other things
- 00:49 - 00:52
but for a moment we are setting them aside,
- 00:53 - 00:54
noticing that they are there.
- 00:54 - 01:00
But then going back to saying but right now I have to focus on school right now.
- 01:00 - 01:05
I am with friends and with teachers and right now we are on student mode.
- 01:06 - 01:09
So for today's mindful morning
- 01:09 - 01:11
I would like for you
- 01:12 - 01:14
to gently place your hands
- 01:14 - 01:17
on your thighs, on your legs,
- 01:17 - 01:19
sit up straight in your chair,
- 01:21 - 01:23
close your eyes if you feel comfortable
- 01:25 - 01:28
take one deep breath in,
- 01:30 - 01:31
hold it
- 01:35 - 01:37
and a deep breath out.
- 01:38 - 01:43
So today we are imagining that we are floating on a lake,
- 01:44 - 01:45
a river
- 01:46 - 01:47
or in a pool.
- 01:48 - 01:54
So you're gently going to stretch out your legs if you can just a little bit
- 01:55 - 01:57
if your desk is there.
- 01:57 - 02:01
Hey no attention to it, stretch as much as you can
- 02:03 - 02:04
And imagine yourself
- 02:05 - 02:06
floating
- 02:07 - 02:09
on top of the water.
- 02:11 - 02:13
You slowly
- 02:13 - 02:15
reach your hands up
- 02:16 - 02:18
and you can feel the water
- 02:20 - 02:25
so you place your hands to your sides and imagine
- 02:25 - 02:29
you are feeling the water in between your fingers.
- 02:30 - 02:33
You are gently stroking the water
- 02:33 - 02:34
at your side.
- 02:38 - 02:41
Everything is quiet around you,
- 02:41 - 02:44
except the sound of the water.
- 02:45 - 02:47
Your fingers going through it
- 02:48 - 02:50
and may read the gentle stream.
- 02:53 - 02:55
Is the water cold
- 02:56 - 02:56
warm?
- 02:59 - 03:05
And you gently remove your fingers from the water and place them back on your thighs.
- 03:06 - 03:12
Can you feel the droplets of the water still on your fingers onto your thighs?
- 03:14 - 03:21
We are imagining ourselves floating on that lake or that river, that pool.
- 03:22 - 03:26
And then you slowly dip your toes in that water,
- 03:28 - 03:34
slowly dipping your toes, maybe moving them, wiggling them around. Can you feel it?
- 03:36 - 03:39
Now? We take one deep breath in again.
- 03:42 - 03:43
Deep breath out.
- 03:45 - 03:50
And then as you open your eyes, we are coming back to being in the classroom.
- 03:50 - 03:55
Boys and girls getting ready for affirmations for the day.
- 03:55 - 03:59
So you are coming back into the classroom, opening your eyes
- 04:00 - 04:04
and we are getting ready for affirmations. So, repeat after me.
- 04:05 - 04:07
I am
- 04:07 - 04:08
intelligent.
- 04:09 - 04:10
I am
- 04:10 - 04:11
intelligent.
- 04:13 - 04:14
I am resilient.
- 04:15 - 04:18
I am resilient.
- 04:21 - 04:22
I am
- 04:23 - 04:24
loved.
- 04:24 - 04:27
I am loved.
- 04:27 - 04:27
Okay.
- 04:28 - 04:29
And last one.
- 04:29 - 04:31
I am safe.
- 04:32 - 04:33
I am
- 04:34 - 04:34
safe.
- 04:36 - 04:39
So, that was our mindful morning for today, boys and girls.
- 04:39 - 04:41
