What Is Mindfulness? According to the Oxford Dictionary, mindfulness is a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique.

Okay, after reading quite a few articles about mindfulness, I came upon two resources that I liked (and there are many more). The purpose of being mindful is to manage stress - which most people are experiencing right now.

First: The Benefits of Mindfulness
As you read the first resource article, I hope you find value and/or benefit for your life and what you are going through.

Second: Lake Orion Schools - Mindfulness Videos
A wonderful resource to help everyone of all ages - from Stephanie Harris, a mindfulness instructor in Lake Orion, Michigan. She has put together a series of mindfulness videos for elementary and high school students and special ones for adults too. The videos are available on the school district website. ( when you are on the page, scroll down until you see the first video March 25; this one is geared towards the parents.)

These are extraordinary times, ones we didn't choose, so stress is at higher peaks. Try and do whatever you can to bring your levels down and enjoy the moments you've been given. In a way these are gifts of time, that we didn't have before. Use them wisely.

We're all in this together. Let's make today a great day and tomorrow too. Pray for those on the front lines and be thankful for everything, no matter what.

Have a blessed day and stay safe!

Love,
Marlene
