Do You Need to Take a Peace Walk?
Practicing social distancing can be difficult at your age, especially when you want nothing more than to be with your friends. It can also be difficult because it means that you and your siblings are together all day, every day. I wanted to remind you of our powerful peace walks. Perhaps you need to take a peace walk with someone and then put things behind you and move forward. The document here will help remind you of the steps
Social distancing might even have you in your feels and you realize that the struggles you were having with someone at school are really small and insignificant compared to Covid-19. I encourage you to go on a peace walk with that person via phone or Facetime and put differences behind you. If you do go on a peace walk (whether it be with a friend, parent, sibling, or cousin), hop on down to complete the form below. If you complete the form by this Wednesday, then your name will go into a drawing for a free pizza to be delivered to your family :). So what are you waiting for?

Are you taking care of you?
So what are you doing each day FOR YOU? ilearn @home, chores, your friends, your family, your responsibilities and your pets are all important. But none are as important as YOU. If you don't fill yourself up each day then it is difficult to give of your time and energy. Even if it is just for 10 minuets, you need to take care care of you, sharpen your saw. This is crucial in becoming your best self and moving the mountains in your life. Head on over to the Mindfulness page or look at the list above for starters!
