Week 3
Meditation Monday
Happy Monday! I don't know about you, but I get a little antsy sometimes having to stay home. When I notice I start to lose control of my thoughts, I remind myself to STOP and BREATHE. Just breathe. Watch this video to learn a simple breathing exercise I like to use to slow myself down and return to a calm state.

thoughtful thursday
Prompt:
"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." - Michael Jordan
Think of a time that you failed at something. What valuable lesson did you learn and how did it motivate you?
This is a great time to keep a writing journal of your thoughts everyday! Grab a notebook, use the 'Notes' app in your phone, share with a friend or family member...or share with me! Use the link below to answer this week's writing prompt (only Ms. Valle can see your answer).
