Your assignment is to meditate or utilize some other form of reflection and relaxation to help with mindfulness (Meditate, yoga, quite reflexion, etc). I don't have a set time, but I think you should try for at least 10-15 minutes. There are a zillion videos on youtube that you can use. We did a practice round in 2A, but I want you to do it on your own. After your session, blog about the experience. What form did you choose to use for personal reflection? Did you use a video--what video did you use? Would you recommend it? Did you feel different after the reflexion time? How might this be useful to people?
(Sorry for the late posting--to make it up to you, I hope you like this blog post)

Okay, we are discussing some heavy stuff in class this week....but at the same time, the sun is currently out and it is supposed to be in the 60's this week!!! Taking all of this in, this week's post is related to happiness. Plain and simple, what makes you happy? Feel free to take this wherever you want. @PrachiShah
Describe a person, show, movie, book, etc that was "ruined" for you when you discovered something about the person, plot, author, etc. Where did this come from you might be asking? Well, a lot of places. Thinking about the white savior, hurt The Help for me. This past week, a documentary was released about Michael Jackson that has badly hurt his image and legacy--he was a god to me as a kid: I had the album Thriller on record, tape, cd, and eventually, digital. I owned a copy of Moonwalker--a music video made into a full length movie. In books, the author Junot Diaz was caught up in a #metoo scandal, and his book Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao is a book I had thought so highly of, that I almost put it into IB (not anymore!). Lastly, rewatching Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast with my children has really hurt my initial feelings about the plots of these movies (this has happened with most of the older Disney movies). Okay, I think you get the idea. Sorry if this "ruins" stuff for people, but I find this a fascinating topic.
