Spring Discovery
This spring, we’ll gather in the forest to play games, tell stories around the fire and explore nature!
Join us for any of the Kestrel Sundays!
Together, we’ll safely explore nature and build lasting friendships with each other and stay in the village where the children have enriched their life each spring camp.
Children walk away from Kestrel feeling at home in nature and at home in themselves.
Each day begins with a morning circle where thanksgiving, songs and games bring us further into our bodies. The days are filled with nature-based games that expand our awareness, storytelling from skilled instructors and visiting elders, songs inspired by nature’s beauty, exploring the forest and looking for mysteries, sculpting clay, and wandering the caves. At the end of the day, with leaf and flower crowns on our heads, our faces painted and smiles on our faces, we’ll return! Kestrel is where your child will:
Play and explore the beautiful outdoors.
Experience and practice a variety of wilderness skills and native technology.
Practice awareness, quiet mind, animal farms, curiosity, exploration, telling the story of the day and gratitude.
Face personal and group challenges tailored to build awareness, self-confidence and group unity.

Some scientists will say it is impossible to read minds. They will also tell you that you can make educated guesses on what a person might be thinking or feeling. Perhaps there really is nothing mysterious about the power to read minds. Perhaps it is simply human sense based on observation and educated guesses after all, but that's really a useful ability to learn.
Learn body language. How a person moves and holds their hands, and even what their eyes are doing are actually telling about what is going on inside their head. For example, pupils (瞳孔) tend to grow larger when you are interested in or excited about something. If you are talking to someone and making eye contact, finding their pupils are large and round, chances are that they are not feigning interest in the conversation. Someone biting their nails is probably nervous. Someone
who folds their arms across their chest when they are not cold is probably trying to put a barrier between you and themselves.
Learn to mentally put yourself in another' s place. Scientists have recently discovered that your brain has neurons (神 经元) that become active when you watch someone do something the same as we did the action ourselves. So when you are able to open yourself to understanding how other people are feeling, you can figure out reasons and predict future actions, reactions, even thoughts.
Sometimes you can use Extra Sensory Perception (ESP) (超感觉力) to read someone's mind. This does not mean you will literally be able to read their mind like a book. Instead, you will receive impressions or feelings, which are difficult to explain.
To improve your ESP abilities, take up meditation (冥想). Because meditation helps enable you to purposely put your brain in a state of relaxed awareness, where you will be more successful in reading people and receiving impressions.
Practice and combine all of these steps. You will soon find yourself able to read people's minds. 24. What is the passage mainly about? A. The ways of reading people's minds. B. The steps of learning body language.
C. The necessity of learning to read people’s minds. D. The relationship between mind and body language. 25. What does the underline word \A. Expressing.B. Pretending. C. Finding.
D. Declaring.
26. Why can you read someone's mind when you mentally put yourself in his/her place?
A. You suddenly have the ability to understand his or her feeling. B. Your imagination ability and your past experience are combined. C. Some neurons m your brain improve your observation ability. D. Your past similar experiences make some neurons in your brain active. 27. How does meditation help with mind reading? A. By making educated guesses on minds. B. By learning to make eye contact. C. By changing ESP abilities for the better. D. By strengthening impressions received.

\is taking the son to a soccer game, and the other parent is taking the daughter to her swim meet. Then there's art class, baseball practice, extra tutoring, and more! By the time the family meet up for dinner, everyone is exhausted.\
All the rushing makes for a short temper. \they lower their own self-esteem as well as losing the respect of their children,\says Dr. Carl Pickhardt \parents think it shows they' re serious about what they're saying, they are really just showing helpless desperation at not getting their way. \
These days what kids are learning at school and from the outside is a lot greater than it used to be even just a generation ago.
\problem is that stress-relieving activities - reading, taking walks or hot baths, watching the sunset and other activities are not even part of most kids' experience any more, \
\are so many more social-interaction opportunities in our computer age, but not all of them promote
meaningful connections, which is another potential outlet for stress, \
One way to relieve stress is a simple technique called \ balloon breath\ It's a
great way for everyone to become calm so that they can respond thoughtfully rather than just react.
