I love doing these little lessons and spending time listening to these meditations. It’s an opportunity to refocus, which is especially helpful at the beginning of a week that’s going to have two days of students taking long three-hour tests. Also, I’ve been sick for the past two days so my life has been reduced to some very fundamental bodily functions, and that has a way of influencing ones focus and energy. There are other pressures, of course, and I’m trying to pave the way for my students in my absence. I hope that they do well and don’t trash the room in my absence. Middle school can be an interesting combination of feeling everything deeply and no impulse control. I hope they do well. Going to nap now, after posting this. 😴
