Mindfulness Monday: Letting-Go Leaves

Autumn is great time for renewal. Just as the trees shed their leaves, we to can let go of the things that no longer serve us.

What you’ll need:

-leaf cutouts

-sharpies

-double stick tape

Ask students to write down something they want to let go (e.g. stress, drama, anger, etc). Then have them place the leaves on your classroom window.
