💌💘 Kindness Month is almost over. We hope that you are getting the message about passing kindness on. When we do kind things for people, they feel so good about what we did that they often do kind acts for others. As kindness is passed on from one person to another, an outward ripple effect is created, like a raindrop that falls into water. In this way, one Random Act of Kindness can be passed on and on, bringing happiness to many others. 💌 Anthropologist Margaret Mead once said, “Never believe that a few caring people can’t change the world. For, indeed, that’s all who ever have.” We also can’t forget about being kind to ourselves. We also have to make sure we take care of our mind and body so that we are the best version of ourselves to be kind to others. 💞💓 This week, let’s make sure we are being kind to ourselves. Thanks to all the students and staff for helping to make this a great month! Now, let’s all work together to pass the kindness on throughout our school and into our community. 💞Monday, February 24 ▪️Challenge: “Practice 4-4-6 Breathing. Breathe in for 4 counts, hold it for 4 counts, exhale for 6 counts. Repeat.” ▪️Flo Kindness Tour: Sunset Hills Elementary 💞 February 25 ▪️Challenge: “Unplug from technology for an hour or more. Use the time to relax, read, or spend time in nature.” ▪️Flo Kindness Tour: Holloman Middle School 💞February 26 ▪️Challenge: “Start a gratitude journal and write down three things you are thankful for each day.” ▪️Flo Kindness Tour: Stepping Stones Pre-K 💞February 27 ▪️Challenge: “Set up a ‘calm corner’ in your space where you can go relax and de-stress.” ▪️Flo Kindness Tour: Yucca Elementary 💞 February 28 ▪️Challenge: “Practice saying kind things to yourself. You are capable of amazing things!” #MakeKindnessTheNorm #kindnessmonth #BekindtoYourself
