My first published article for WE Forum Group in NJ on mindfulness in schools. Introducing affirmations, meditation practices, breath work, and restorative yoga has been a game changer in our personal wellness class at SPFHS.

Most athletes get discouraged or angry after making mistakes. If they only knew how much they could improve by learning from failure. This is why you need to stay positive and take advantage of every learning opportunity that you get!

Thanksgiving Eve: one of the most popular drinking nights of the year. Be sure to arrange for a designated driver to keep you and your party safe this holiday.

As a former 3 sport athlete with 2 knee surgeries, yoga has been a game changer for both my mental & physical health. Introducing yoga to players isn’t just important in protecting our athletes now but for their lifetime. Excited to jump into this @athletes4yogahq training!

@NicolePignatel1 @EWRSDK12 You are too kind! It was such a pleasure to be apart of this team - with Coach Larkin, the FH girls, and all of our FH families!!

[Coach Boyce @msaboyce]

The theme of this year at @EWRSDK12 is JOY & I couldn’t think of a more fitting word to describe my first season as an assistant coach for girls field hockey. We ended last night with a win for both V & JV levels and sent off our incredible head coach, Coach Larkin!

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

Four positive things you can do while injured:
1. Take rehab seriously.
2. Focus on other areas of your game, such as your technique or mental game.
3. Be a leader and help your team however you can.
4. Find more balance in life by focusing on your family, faith, and hobbies.

A good day to be a Ram! Varsity FH with a 4-3 win, JV FH with a 2-0 win over Steinert… and some rainbows for a backdrop!

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

Coaches can’t give a player confidence, but they can give them the opportunities to develop some! They can help them learn the value of preparation, how to reframe their negative thinking & how to overcome adversity & obstacles. Three crucial abilities in developing confidence!

[USA Lacrosse @USA_Lacrosse]

"You couldn't call lacrosse a sport. It's more than that."

Chief Oren Lyons Jr. is one of the most treasured icons in the sport's history. Today we honor #IndigenousPeoplesDay and celebrate "The Creator's Game," which was given to us by the Native people.

[Konscious Youth Development & Service @KYDS_NJ]

We celebrate with gratitude the rich culture, wisdom, & resilience of those native to this land. The journey for justice, innerstanding, and mutual respect must be embodied daily, not just today ☮️🕊️

We loved these affirmation cards in our yoga elective class! We used them for our affirmation meditation this past Friday!

[Coach Boyce @msaboyce]

After two tough losses this week, tonight was a great 4-0 win for our JV field hockey girls over Peddie School! Congrats to our field hockey seniors on their senior night! The scoreboard doesn’t always reflect the hard work put in! No matter the score, so proud of these girls!

[Andrew K @CoachKurzawski]

Too many kids have been taught that the goal of HS sports is to achieve an ATHLETIC scholarship - here’s the truth: the goal of HS sports is to learn how to be a better person, better teammate, better communicator & to enjoy being a teenager...something you can’t get back.

[Coach Boyce @msaboyce]

First 3 books of the school year…
• The Competitive Buddha by Jerry Lynch
• The Art of Communicating by Thich Nhat Hanh
• Accessing the Healing Power of the Vagus Nerve by Stanley Rosenberg (finally finished this one)

Up next: The Mindful Coach by Jerry Lynch

[bendwithboyce @bendwithboyce]

Thank you RVFC for having me & most importantly for all you selflessly do each day to protect & serve our community. Special shout out to my father, a member for 40+ years & former chief. Proud to be your daughter & grateful for the opportunity to give back to your community.

[bendwithboyce @bendwithboyce]

Yoga, breathwork & functional recovery are vitally important for our first responders. Providing them with tools to regulate their nervous system is important not only to their quality of life & well-being but to their safety & the safety of those they protect each day.

[Coach the Coaches @WinningCoaches]

PLAYERS: You can't always control what happens to you but you can always control how you react to your situation. Don't wait for things to come to you. Take advantage of opportunities. You can either make excuses or MAKE THINGS HAPPEN.
