LOVE as an ACTION in Middle School
“LOVE has two polarities-conditional and unconditional. Conditional LOVE has expectations, which give us pain and joy. Unconditional LOVE gives us ecstasy, self-fulfillment, self-respect, self-esteem, and knowledge of our higher selves.” We connected to our lineage of teachings at Renfroe Middle, our training ground. Our Step 2 teachers led the way…. We rooted into our legs…

Why fit in when you were born to stand out
Nobody’s perfect. That’s what they all say. But when you’re a teenager, that saying never crosses your mind, especially with girls. We are always comparing ourselves to everyone around us, finding their flaws and comparing them with our own. I had that problem. Every time I looked in the mirror, I didn’t see anything but…

Count On Meditation to Be Your Best Self
It’s true that meditation helps children to feel better, know better and do better. That’s because meditators are in touch with their best self. If we’ve neglected to stay in touch with that part of ourselves, then how can we introduce that self to others?

If your best self feels like a stranger, this meditation will help you tune in to your goodness and integrate that energy into your being

The Light Within – Yoga & Art Activity
This activity came out of a need to define shinning inner light. The
concept seems vague to some kids so I wanted to find a way to connect
emotions with yoga movements in a concrete way. Doing this activity is a
way for kids to verbalize their good qualities. Some kids are very familiar
with their dark sides, and they only hear adults point out what they do
wrong. They have to be able to identify their light sides and what they do
right before they can shine their inner lights. Once they have a few
concrete images to focus on, I think they can shine these attributes as they
do the yoga poses.
