Creative Movement: Nurturing Minds, Nourishing Souls

The curriculum blends scientific insights with holistic practices, with studies in epigenetics highlighting the benefits of mindfulness training to enhance social-emotional skills. These skills, from attention to empathy, not only reshape classroom and home environments but also improve academic performance. Each session of Creative Movement follows a harmonious rhythm, starting with pranayama breathing exercises and delving into Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and mindfulness lessons.

Lower Campus students have learned to create their sanctuary of peace and foster physical and mental well-being by practicing yoga. They also engage in group activities and discussions to foster connections beyond the classroom. This month's focus was guided meditation, a transformative journey exploring meta-loving kindness—practice extending benevolence to oneself, others, and the world. Through repetition of mantras like "May you be happy, may you be safe, may you be well," students cultivate compassion and soften frustration.

Under Mrs. Steinhart's expert guidance, Creative Movement has become a sanctuary where children discover themselves and learn to navigate life's complexities. It serves as a beacon of tranquility, nurturing minds and nourishing souls for a lifetime.
