Shake It Off Page

Think about it. Sit or stand up straight, take a deep breath, and follow along. Life can be messy. A morning at home can be rough. Getting to school and making it through lunch can be challenging, but you have to keep going. You have to shake off those yucky feelings. Your body can help. Shake your fingers. Shake, shake, shake. Shake, shake, shake. Stop. Now your hands. Shake them like you got them all wet. And you want to shake them dry. Just your hands. Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake. Floppy up or down. Side to side. Shake, shake, shake. Stop. Be mindful of your neighbors and get your arms into it. Raise them up. Now shake them off. Upper arms, forearms, and yes, fingers and hands too. Shake, shake, shake. Shake, shake, shake. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, stop. Feeling like you shook off something? You did. Help yourself move forward. Shake off those rough moments. Shake them off and move on.
