Welcome to our mindfulness page.

In the Christian tradition, calming the mind has been seen as a way of allowing 

God to speak. 

During the last couple of years many of us have experienced feelings of anxiety and stress. It can feel like we can’t catch our breath. 

We invite you to close your eyes, relax your body and breathe in and out. 

Below you’ll find simple ways to help to relieve stress and be present in the moment. 

Thanks! 

 Sensory Stickers and Fidget Toys


From clicking a pen, twirling hair, or tapping their feet, many people may fidget without realizing it. Fidgeting isn’t a bad thing, it can provide stress relief, self-regulation, and improve concentration for students with anxiety, ADHD, ADD, or other learning differences. Sensory stickers have a texture and provide a convenient way to manage sensory needs, whether you touch, scratch, or trace the textured surface or as a guide for mindful breathing.

Fidget toys and sensory stickers allow students to get the stimulation they need to complete their work without bothering their peers. 


Common places people put their sensory stickers:


  • On a tablet.
  • On a water bottle.
  • On a notebook or planner.
  • Next to the trackpad on a laptop.
  • On your desk.
  • The back of your phone.

Deep Peace - An Old Gaelic Blessing

 Deep peace of the running wave to you,

 Deep peace of the flowing air to you,

 Deep peace of the quiet earth to you, 

Deep peace of the shining stars to you,

Deep peace of the gentle night to you, 

Moon and stars pour their healing light on you,

 Deep peace of Christ the light of the world to you.
