Good morning my friends and happy Wednesday.

Welcome to today's Mindful morning where we are practicing the art of mindfulness
- 00:09 - 00:12
and what does mindfulness mean? My friends
- 00:12 - 00:15
it means being fully here?
- 00:15 - 00:18
We're focusing on where we are right now.
- 00:18 - 00:20
We're thinking about our choices.
- 00:21 - 00:23
We have our calm body
- 00:23 - 00:25
and we're really really thinking
- 00:25 - 00:28
about what we're going to do in this moment.
- 00:28 - 00:33
We are not thinking about yesterday or the things that
- 00:33 - 00:35
are going to happen at recess or at lunch.
- 00:36 - 00:40
We are living our moment right now and we are focusing on what we need to learn.
- 00:42 - 00:46
So to do that friends we have to be prepared to be in the great mindset.
- 00:47 - 00:53
I have my growth mindset wall behind me and I want us all to stay
- 00:53 - 00:56
with that growth mindset to a growth mindset
- 00:56 - 00:59
means we continue to believe in ourselves.
- 00:59 - 01:02
Even if we don't understand something now that
- 01:02 - 01:04
doesn't mean we won't understand it later.
- 01:05 - 01:07

- 01:19 - 01:21
give your brain some oxygen
- 01:24 - 01:25
and go ahead and let it out.
