Mindfulness Monday: Mindful Coloring

Today’s activity was Mindful Coloring. I shared a variety of fall and Thanksgiving themed coloring pages with my students. Not as many students participated today, which is unfortunate because the level of dysregulation in my classroom was palpable. I find this to be very common around this time of year. I find myself struggling to stay mindful and my students can sense it. I am making a conscious effort to work on regulating my own emotions and stay committed to my own mindfulness practice so my students can reap the benefits.
