Raise Your Voice - Lift Your Mood! 

As we continue with remote learning and social distancing it's more important than ever to look after our emotional well-being and one of the best ways we can do that is to...SING! The incredible act of singing connects us with those around us, so please, sing with your children! Through singing our mood improves, not only by reducing the stress hormone, Cortisol, but also by increasing our Endorphins and the happy/love hormone, Oxytocin. How amazing is that?! 

So this week, like every week, I encourage you all to sing! While you're at it, why not join me in singing and dancing along to this silly number! Introducing 'Mrs Brownie', see below for lyrics and to watch and learn the dance with me! 

Here comes Mrs Brownie around the bush,

Here comes Mrs Brownie around the bush,

Here comes Mrs Brownie around the bush,

And she opens the door to let herself in.

She goes Oh, Ah and a La-Dee-Dah,

She goes Oh, Ah and a La-Dee-Dah,

She goes Oh, Ah and a La-Dee-Dah, 

And she opens the door to let herself in.

Did you sing and dance along? If you did, then you were definitely smiling!

Keep on singing and know that I'll be singing along with you!
