Hi Diamond Ridge families! I wanted to share something exciting and near and dear to my heart. Each Monday the whole school participates in a one minute mindfulness exercise- where we all slow down, take a breath and focus on a positive thought. It has really taken me out of my comfort zone(because I don’t love hearing myself over the intercom), but I love the response I have gotten from teachers and students. Please ask your child what they are supposed to do when they focus on their breathing (we put our hand on our heart and one on our stomach, and close our eyes). Ask them if it helps them to let go of negative thoughts or to be kinder to themselves and others. I would love it if this becomes a practice in your homes too- it’s a great tool right before bed or first thing in the morning to set an intention for their day.
