  Good morning friends and happy Wednesday.

• 00:04 - 00:10

  Welcome to today's mindful mornings where we are practicing some mindfulness

• 00:10 - 00:14

  and mindfulness means keeping your calm body

• 00:14 - 00:16

  noticing everything around you.

• 00:17 - 00:19

  Making those great choices.

• 00:19 - 00:24

  Thinking before we say and act and do

• 00:24 - 00:27

  so for today's mindfulness activity.

• 00:27 - 00:29

  I thought we could start with some plucking

• 00:30 - 00:31

  but first

• 00:31 - 00:35

  go ahead and take your deep breath in to prepare your body.

• 00:36 - 00:38

  Deep breath in

• 00:39 - 00:40

  and

• 00:40 - 00:40

  out.

• 00:43 - 00:45

  This is always a good way to start

• 00:45 - 00:49

  anything friends because you are preparing your body for what is to come.

• 00:49 - 00:52

  So for our mind from this activity like I said,

• 00:52 - 00:55

  we will be doing some plugging because I have

• 00:55 - 00:58

  been hearing around a lot of students worried that

• 00:59 - 01:01

  about testing,

• 01:01 - 01:05

  worried about all the homework and assignments and all the

• 01:05 - 01:08

  things we have to learn and be tested on.

• 01:08 - 01:11

  And it's getting us really nervous.

• 01:11 - 01:14

  It's making our brain really think

• 01:14 - 01:16

  about that fixed mindset.

• 01:16 - 01:18

  We're thinking about the ideas

• 01:19 - 01:23

  that we can't do things or that we're not smart enough.

• 01:23 - 01:27

  So I'm gonna go ahead and pluck those away from you right now so that

• 01:27 - 01:33

  we can turn into our growth mindset where we say things helped me learn.

• 01:34 - 01:37

  I make mistakes but that helps me get better.

• 01:38 - 01:41

  I don't know this yet but I am still learning.

• 01:41 - 01:48

  We want to have that growth mindset. So prepare yourself for me to pluck away

• 01:49 - 01:52

  all those negative thoughts that you may have.

• 01:54 - 02:01

  Remember to take your breath, take your deep breath in as I am plucking away

• 02:02 - 02:05

  those thoughts of I can't do this. MS Lopez!

• 02:06 - 02:09

  The thoughts of I'm not smart enough.

• 02:10 - 02:11

  This is too hard.

• 02:12 - 02:14

  I am just too stressed.

• 02:15 - 02:16

  I don't want to do this anymore.

• 02:17 - 02:20

  We're plucking away all those thoughts

• 02:21 - 02:24

  so that we can make space in our mind Friends,

• 02:24 - 02:26

  for the thoughts that say

• 02:27 - 02:28

  I will improve.

• 02:29 - 02:30

  I'm on the right track.

• 02:31 - 02:33

  I can keep trying.

• 02:34 - 02:35

  I will try my best work.

• 02:36 - 02:39

  So the last few

• 02:39 - 02:41

  plucking away

• 02:42 - 02:45

  really open yourself up

• 02:45 - 02:47

  to the idea

• 02:47 - 02:48

  that I'm

• 02:48 - 02:49

  bringing away

• 02:50 - 02:52

  and taking away all

• 02:52 - 02:54

  of those negative thoughts. Friends

• 02:55 - 02:59

  and let's move on to our affirmations for the day,

• 03:00 - 03:01

  repeat after me

• 03:02 - 03:04

  And the more

• 03:31 - 03:34

  those positive affirmations we add,

  the better we will do now that we have

• 03:36 - 03:41

  all those negative thoughts taken away. We make space for those positive ones.
