Imagine Together

Yo Re Mi combines music, yoga, and mindfulness education to celebrate where we live and where we come from. Today we will explore heritage and home through music, yoga, and mindfulness with an imaginary trip to Mexico with Yo Re Mi – Mexico Adventure.

  • Turn into a boat using yoga positions to travel to Mexico.
  • Say good morning and how are you in Spanish through a colorful sing-a-long.
  • Learn the names of different animals in Spanish.
  • Practice your warrior pose.
  • Finally, take relaxing breaths and stretch as we rest our minds and bodies from our trip.

Exploring other cultures and taking part in family traditions strengthens the bonds between family and community and is a great way to build a sense of belonging.

Take a minute to think about a time you felt you truly belonged.

  • Where were you, who else was there, and what were you doing?
  • What did you feel a part of?
  • How did you experience that sense of belonging in your body?
  • Can you feel any emotional response to that memory of belonging even now?

Here are 3 Steps for Creating Belonging Through Music, Movement, and Mindfulness.
