This week we begin a new unit on Gratitude. When we acknowledge the blessings in our lives, we begin to know how rich our lives are. The focus for the first lesson is being grateful for ourselves, and expressing gratitude for the big and little things in our lives.

This is our last lesson on Being Resilient. A part of being resilient is the ability to adapt and adjust to change. Change happens all the time. When we resist change, it can cause stress and problems. In this lesson, we will explore adaptability and tools we have for adapting to change in our lives. Our first Unity principle says: “There Is Only One Power and One Presence In The Universe – God, That Is All Good And Active In Everything, Everywhere.” When we remember that God is always with us, it makes it easier to manage change.

This week our focus is acknowledging that we are stronger than we sometimes think. We will also look at what negative self-talk we tell ourselves and how we can change those thoughts into positive self-talk.

This week our focus is understanding what change is and how we manage. Change is a constant in our lives and the more we allow ourselves to adjust to the ebb and flow of life, the more joy, peace, and happiness we will attain. No matter what occurs, we have the power to overcome it, learn from it, and to grow.

This week we begin a new unit on resilience. Resilience is the ability to face, overcome, and become strengthened by the challenges we face. We all face challenges but by being resilient, we can more easily overcome them without being overwhelmed. Unity’s first Principle tells us that God is in all things and is everywhere, even within us helping us grow stronger each day. The Prayer for Protection is a good reminder that God is always with us, helping us to grow stronger.

This is our final lesson on Diversity and Inclusion. This week, we explore unity in the world. We will begin to understand what that means and how we can be a part of it. We are individuals and are all one in Spirit. Our thoughts, prayers and actions do make a difference in our Oneness.

We continue our unit on Diversity and Inclusion focusing on identity this week. We will explore what identity means and explore our individual identities, and how we express it.

There are many things that contribute to what we believe about ourselves and others, primarily society and culture. This week we will look at some of the different beliefs about God from various religions. Having knowledge and understanding about others can be an important part of inclusivity.

Without being aware of it, we tend to make assumptions, label, and categorize people based on their race, economic level, etc. In this lesson, we will learn how to identify that we are labeling others as a beginning for having a better understanding and respect for each other and our uniqueness.

This week is our last lesson on faith. We will review what we have discovered about faith, and we will explore and continue identifying ways we can put our faith into action.

This week, we return to our Virtual Adventures lessons. Our lesson this week is about exercising our faith. We will explore how we grow in our spiritual understanding, and how we put our faith into action.

The focus this week is exploring what we have faith in. We tend to associate faith with our spirituality. We actually have faith in many things, such as when we sit down the chair will be there, the sun will rise tomorrow, etc.

This unit explores faith and invites us to consider what it is that we have faith in. Our focus for this lesson is understanding what faith is. Believing and trust are very closely related to faith. We will explore the concept of believing, trust, and faith and how they relate to each other.

This is our last lesson on feelings. It is not only important to know what we are feeling, but to be able to identify what others may be feeling. But how do we do that? This week, we explore the clues that can help us identify and empathize with what others may be feeling.

In this lesson, we continue to learn about feeling identification and add coping strategies. Beyond knowing what we are feeling, we need strategies we can use to manage our strong feelings.

The purpose of this lesson is to understand and explore mixed emotions. Making sense of mixed emotions can be a challenge for any of us (grown-ups too!). We sometimes think we should only feel one specific emotion. However, much of the time there is a mix. Being able to identify our mixed emotions is a very valuable skill that helps us to better understand ourselves, and can improve our interactions with others.

Everyone has to deal and cope with their emotions. In this unit, we learn how to identify our feelings, tools for coping with feelings, and identifying the feelings others may be experiencing. This week's focus is recognizing and naming a variety of feelings.

As we wrap up our self-awareness unit, we expand our understanding of who we are by focusing on sharing our gifts with others and how we share.

This week we continue our exploration of knowing and understanding who we are, which is important to our being in harmony with Spirit. Students will explore how their thoughts and beliefs create their life. We will look at how powerful thoughts are and how we can use them for good.

Knowing who we are deepens our relationship with the Spirit within. In this lesson, we will come to know that we are all very special and innateIy divine. In the activities this week students will continue to explore their true self, focusing on their needs and values and what brings them joy.
