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.

Rain Resiliency

Embrace the joys of life along with it's challenges. 

Do you spend time wishing things were different? Some people spend a lot of time and energy railing against the unfairness of life.We may not be able to change some things about our life. Accepting that can go a long way to improving your resilience. Instead of being overwhelmed by adversity, embrace it! 

The challenge this week is to write 5 things daily that you are learning from COVID-19.  I've learned to slow down and focus more on the most important elements in my life. . It has been nice to work on projects and develop my talents. I started working on refinishing and reupholstering furniture. I will post a picture when completed. Have a great week!

Write below some of your things you are learning from COVID-19.

Rain Resiliency

Resiliency is the capacity to bounce back and recover from the difficulties that life throws us.  Past generations may have simply called this a person’s “toughness.”
Some of us are more resilient than others, but we all have resilience deep inside of us. 

I will be sending weekly tips on how to become more resilient. We are becoming more  resilient as we transition from doing work or school to home. Many of us improve our technology skills and learned how to be more flexible.  It seems we have new challenges on a weekly and even daily basis.  With all of these changes, we can be resilient and bounce back.  We can bend with the wind and endure in the storm. 

Tip#1- Be grateful and patient

Learn to be more grateful for what you’ve got in life.  Resilient people remember that things could always be worse. We often take things for granted — food, clean water, shelter. This week's challenge is write or state five things you are grateful for each day!!

    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!!
