Music & Mindset Matters
Flipping Routines into Rituals
Episode 22: Flipping Routines into Rituals
I’m all about making life SIMPLE, JOYFUL and CONNECTED as much as possible these days. I don’t want to just GET BY in life and be an onlooker in my own journey. Don’t get me wrong - this doesn’t mean that everyday life is all rainbows and unicorns!!
What I want to practise each day, and help my children and students to practise is “Having a positive attitude, mindset, outlook” (whatever term resonates with you). To practice ‘flipping’ the story around Routines being ‘suffocating, stressful, too restrictive’ and instead incorporating the sense of meaning and purpose that comes with Rituals. To turn Routines into Rituals! Because there’s magical moments even in the most ‘tiresome’ or ‘boring’ of daily routines and chores…and I‘m determined to keep my mind and heart open and curious to these moments.
And I believe very strongly that I can support Educators and teachers working in the Early Years space to look out for these moments too. Those working with and caring for young children have a fantastic opportunity to use Musical and Mindfulness elements in their daily routines and transitions to create learning environments that have meaning, purpose, great connection and joy. It's what motivates me to keep presenting the online workshop on Thursday 22nd February: “ROUTINES to RITUALS: Using Music & Mindfulness to create calm, connected transitions”.
