This is a hugging meditation for kids, based on the practice created by Thich Nhat Hanh.  Science says that kids who are hugged a lot actually grow smarter, bigger, healthier, calmer, and more resilient than kids who are rarely hugged. Pediatricians recommend that all kids get at least 17 hugs a day! We better get hugging right away!
For this practice you will need a stuffed animal, a pet, a friend, or a family member. If you're in the car and don't have any of those things available, don't worry...because you can hug yourself!
Today's affirmations are based on the way we feel when we get a really good hug:
I am happy I am loved I am well protected Today is going to be a good day

Brand new episode out today and it's all about the cells in our body cheering us on! We wrote and recorded this episode in response to a listener who asked for ways to feel less lonely.
This is our last episode in season 3.  We are taking a break from writing and producing to slow down and be more mindful in our personal lives. Thank you for your patience as we take care of ourselves during this time.

Trillions of Cells Are Cheering You On!

This episode is about building our KINDNESS SUPERPOWERS! It's about being kind to your brother or your sister...which is not always easy to do. Ansel & Annie help practice the affirmations for superpowered sibling kindness and brainstorm ways to be more kind to our siblings.
Todays' affirmations:

 I have the kindest heart
 My words are patient and kind
  I look for the good in everyone, even my sibling
  When it's too hard to be patient, I step away, and I take deep belly breaths
  Even when it's hard to do I choose kind, I choose kind, I choose kind
  I am the best brother
  I am the best sister

You choose KIND (Even to Your Siblings)

This new episode is all about appreciating our miraculous bodies.
Our bodies do a lot for us every day and sometimes we forget to say thank you.
So today we're going to thank our eyes, our ears, our noses, our mouths, our digestive systems, our hands, our legs, and our feet.
Just like you like it when someone takes the time to appreciate you for who you are, your body likes it too.
Get ready, bodies, we're going to appreciate you!
Today's Affirmations:

 My body is one of a kind
 My body is just right
  My body deserves kindness and respect
  I am thankful for my body
