Back-to-School To Do: Mindfulness and Empathy

Back-to-School To Do: Mindfulness and Empathy

It's that time of the year when summer feels like it went way too fast and the school year feels like it’s coming way too soon!

While you take in the last of the unscheduled summer days and contemplate where to locate last year's backpack, consider two additional items to put on your child's Back-to-School To Do list: Mindfulness and Empathy.

In a nutshell....

Mindfulness is an awareness I have about what's going inside for me. My thoughts, feelings, surroundings, sensations.

Empathy is an awareness I have about what's going on inside for you. Your thoughts, feelings, surroundings, sensations.
