Today I learned more about “living deliberately”. In class today, students were to write what they thought “living deliberately” meant. Everyone listened to each others’ ideas and came together to form a final answer. I was surprised to learn all of my other peers had different ideas than me. When I think of “living deliberately”, I think that a person has goals in mind and does everything with a purpose, or a meaning. What some of my other table-mates said surprised me; for one, more than two of them believed that “living deliberately” meant doing what you want and being relaxed about it. When I think of “living deliberately”, relaxation is not the first words that comes to mind. However, once I thought about it more, I realized that “deliberate” does not always connote to rigid. One can do something deliberately but still be relaxed about it. After hearing my peers’ ideas, my own idea changed. Once everyone was finished sharing their ideas, we came together and combined what we all thought as our final answer. Living deliberately is a main goal for this STEMersion. From this STEMersion, I hope to be able to apply the skills I learn and hopefully, live more deliberately, in and out of school.
Today we also did our first yoga session. Kids were allowed to follow along with the video tutorial or just lie and relax. The lights were off which provided a calm environment. Doing yoga and relaxing made me feel very calm and tranquil. Today's yoga session was my favorite activity that we did today. I found it very relaxing and a good way to end the first day of STEMersion. Overall, today was a good day. I learned more about “living deliberately”, and am hoping to apply it to my real life. I also did some relaxing yoga that helped me calm down. Today was a great first day of STEMersion! Below is a picture I took at the pond behind the school. It shows two flowers that I found along the bank.
