Week 1 - Introduction, How to use the book

Welcome to the “My Space to Be” Book Club!

I am so excited you have decided to join us. If you haven’t officially signed up through the Google Form please take a moment to do that here. It helps me get a grasp of the angle I should take the content to best serve you.

1st things 1st: I am Carrie Rice. A little background on me, I am a mother of 3. Two tweens and a teenager. I am married and live in the same city I was born and raised in. I went to college for Secondary Education with concentrations in Social Studies and Health Education. Since then I have continued my education with a 200 hr yoga certification and 95 hr children’s yoga teacher certification. I started and ran 3 successful businesses, 1 of which was a yoga studio…. But my heart has always been in education.

Currently I am a program assistant at an elementary where I run the Regulation Room. I specialize in Emotional Identification and Emotional Regulation. It’s the best job.

I’m thrilled you have purchased my book and want to dive deeper into the activities with me! Ready to get started?

This week’s videos will take you through:

• Step 1: Buy the book

  • AND THANK you for that! This was a passion project for sure and I’m super excited to share it with you.

• Step 2: Learn how to use it, how to build habits with it.

  • This is not a book I want you to read through then set on a shelf and forget about it. It has spiral binding for a reason and no it is NOT cheaper to print it that way. It is because I want it to be a companion. Something that you can take on the go and use daily, like a journal.

• Step 3: Jump in!

The video below is your activities for this week, or your “homework”. These are fun and creative this week. Set aside a little time to do them as part of a self-care practice or a family activity!

That is it for your 1st week! See you back here again next week for Week #2 of the Summer Book Club.
