Choose Hope

We had many events cancelled, but one thing that cannot be cancelled is HOPE. We can choose to have hope everyday in our relationships with our family and friends, personal aspirations and dreams, and world in large. I am so impressed with the students from Black Ridge and Hidden Hollow. I have met with students through video conferencing, phone, and email during the soft closure of school. You have so much hope and bring me hope for the future!

The challenge this week is to write our hopes and dreams on paper. If you would like, make a paper boat with your hopes and dreams. See the paper boat animation below.

Mindful March

It is the second week of Mindful March! This month, I have been teaching mindfulness and breathing techniques on how to relax the mind and body. We will continue the mindfulness theme until April.

This week's challenge is to start a mindful practice or breathing activities each day for 3-5minutes! You can do this by focusing on taking deep breaths. For example, imagine that your body is like a balloon filling up as you breathe in, and emptying as you breathe out. Let your ribs expand out to the sides, like a balloon, expanding and then let the air out, like a balloon that is emptying. The balloon expands and then the air goes out. I like to count to 4 as I do this activity. Then, I count to 4 as the air goes out. Try the strategies below to help prevent worrying!!
