Conscious Check-Ins
Integrity
Know Your Values
Each week features three Conscious Check-Ins, drawing from Conscious Classroom’s foundational practices of breathwork, mindfulness, meditation, movement, and journaling. Designed for just 1, 3, or 5 minutes, these simple, actionable practices support educators and students in bringing greater awareness and intention into everyday life.
Try our one minute breathwork practice, our 3 minute meditation practice and our 5 minute movement practice to support you through any challenge. This daily work will help you ground your mind and your body to help you regulate and reset. These resilience practice will provide skills for you and your students to not avoid challenging moments but to move through them with Self awareness and intentional action.

Breathwork
Breathe Into Your Values
Take It With You: Choose one value to carry into your day.
Sit or stand comfortably. With a long, slow inhale, silently ask, “What matters most to me?” With a long, slow exhale, notice a value that comes to mind, such as kindness, courage, honesty, or respect.
Continue breathing slowly and evenly, allowing your inhale and exhale to be similar in length.
minutes
Mindfulness
Notice What Matters
Reflect: What does this moment reveal about what matters most to me?
Bring to mind a moment when you felt proud of how you treated yourself or someone else. Notice the emotions and physical sensations associated with that experience.
What personal value were you demonstrating? Identify the quality that made this moment meaningful.
Take a moment to journal your thoughts.
minutes
Meditation
Your Inner Compass
Reflect: What three values do I want to embody each day?
Sit up tall and soften your gaze. Imagine yourself at your very best. How do you speak, listen, respond, and treat others?
Visualize moving through your day embodying three qualities you value. Notice how it feels to act in alignment with those qualities.
Silently affirm, “My values guide my choices.”
Take a moment to journal your thoughts.
