I know that the end of the school year can really tough for teachers. There’s so much going on and it’s hard to keep students involved in their schoolwork.

You wish you could do a field trip, but with the district’s recent budget cuts, there’s less opportunities to get hands-on and out in the real-world.

Or maybe you are searching YouTube for interesting videos to show, but you feel that the content: a)isn’t keeping them engaged b)isn’t enriching enough OR c) does not replace the value of real human interaction.

Consider a middle-way! Hire Ms. Merritt Micro-Schooling to be your all-in-one online tutor and journeying companion with a LIVE telecasted field trip to a location of your choice from the South of France. Our 1hr program uses creative ways to get your students involved in a sensory experience of planetary connection.

Can you guess the famous historical figure behind this quote?

We know he was definitely a-head of his time! While he most often covered his hair with a hat, he knew the power of the heart that science shows us today. Research from has discovered the magnetic field of the heart is 100,000x more powerful than that of the brain. Finding and extending in the 6 directions of the heart field is an easy tune up you can do every day, and can teach you how! Just as I need a good compass to show the way, I need a functioning heart-mind to help me to walk towards the more equal and equitable world I want to see by accepting all of who I am in the present moment, whether I am feeling curly or straight. Knowing the power of the heart, just Imagine if one spent 5-10 minutes a day in the morning with intention on the heart, rather than in the head, what kind of world we’d be living in and what kinds of directions we could take.

One Buddha is Not Enough | Amulet Market | Bangkok, Thailand

12/13/2022

Hi everyone! Welcome to Ms. Merritt’s Field Trip channel!

We make content for parent’s and children alike to discover the mysteries of the world and all it has to offer.

I am *by no means* a highly qualified video editor, but I enjoy traveling to new places and sharing with others what I’ve found.

Here is a trip I took in June 2020 to the Amulet market in Bangkok, Thailand, right across from the UNCESCO hertiage temple of Wat Pho.

Things had *just* opened up, after several months on lockdown, in which the amulet market was totally closed down and one could find maybe 1 or 2 vendors was open.

Does that mean NO BUDDHAS? No way! The spirit of Thailand continued on and they all came out of hiding.

Watch the whole video or skip ahead to the highlights of this trip where many surprises were lurking.

14:35 Secret Alley

Sadly, I don’t speak Thai and couldn’t thank all the people I met in this video on that day. So I’m writing to you now - Thank you! And thank you, for giving me a chance to explore your country, as strange an unexpected as it was that I should be in Thailand long enough to go on these adventures, and hopefully I can say it for real, next time when we meet again…

You can learn more about this market and the mysterious Red Fanta by checking out these two articles:

It was over 2 years ago that we went to Bangkok and saw the city by boat to discover its religion and culture of building temples for spirits and the Buddha. Have you ever seen a temple like these in real life?
