Handout: Mindful Moon Flow
The digital world we live in makes it easy to spend LOTS of time in front of a screen, right?

Yet the statistics are clear— kids and teens who exercise regularly are more likely to develop healthier lifelong habits than those who don’t. So, taking time for your (or your child’s) health now will continue to benefit you (or them) in the long run.
