ACTIVITY OF THE DAY:

GRATITUDE MEDITATION

MATERIALS NEEDED

❖ Eyeband

PROCEDURE:

Tell the students they will be sitting for 21 minutes and tell them to close their eyes (they can wear an eye band if they want). Once everyone has their eyes closed, guide them through the meditation. Start by telling: Allow any thought, person or situation to come to your mind. If it is a positive thought, a person you love or a situation that you cherish, feel deep gratitude for it and see it go away. If it is a negative thought, or a person you don't like, or an unpleasant situation, feel gratitude for that too and bless it. Anything that comes to your mind, bless it with deep gratitude.
