I have been super busy. My choir Christmas concert is next week and we are not ready. Because of all the stress i found out today that my blood pressure is high so i am trying to find ways to relax. Anyone have any good ideas?
Easier said than done, but here's my trite advice: "Don't sweat the small stuff and it's all small stuff." Really, it does no good to worry about not being ready. Do what you can to get them ready and then let it happen. They will respond to your praise as to what they're doing well more than to your stress of not being ready. And ... Pray. P - R - A - Y !!! I know angels have sung with us in church concerts so why not school? ;) Like I said, easier said than done. (Are you worried about what others might think when the kids aren't ready? That it reflects on you? I think that's what a lot of stress comes from--worrying about what 'others' think. If that's the case, let go of that worry and just do the best you can. You cannot control how they perform. Again, I think kids best respond to positive praise of what they're doing well.) Best of luck. It WILL be beautiful!!! I wish I could be there. Love ya!!!
