Wellness Day

Today was Wellness Day at school. Emmy’s class went for a walk outside.

Miss Hamm stopped near some trees. “ Let’s do yoga! ” she said.

Emmy watched Miss Hamm stretch. “ Raise your arms, everyone, ” Miss Hamm said. “ And reach for the sun. ” Everyone stretched their arms.

“ Now let’s meditate, ” Miss Hamm said. Everyone sat down. “ Relax, ” Miss Hamm said. “ And take deep breaths. ”

Miss Hamm smiled. “ Life can be stressful, ” she said. “ Meditation helps you feel calm. ” Emmy took a deep breath and smiled.

At home Emmy wanted to help her family. Harry was working on homework. “ Homework is stressful, ” she thought.
