Checking in
The River kids explored how to check in with themselves to see and understand how they are feeling and what might be in the way of feeling great or being in the moment. They made their own customized check-in books where they can go down a physical and emotional checklist or, if they prefer, to spend some time drawing or writing about how they are feeling. They talked about keeping them on their nightstands or in the car or any place where they can do a daily check in. This is such a big step for any of us to take and they did such an amazing job at diving into this - we joked that it's like taking out the trash except for your mind, body and spirit! Part of the check-in is to then find out what reconnects us to good feeling/the present moment. Awesome to see these kids pick this up so easily - stuff that takes us adults years and years!
