Welcome to Charm Words,
Your daily reminder to be good to yourself and others.
My name's Zola,
And together we're going to breathe in the good,
Breathe out the bad,
And use words to remind ourselves of our worth.
Listening is a powerful tool that helps not only ourselves,
But those around us.
When we give someone our undivided attention,
We show them that we care about what they have to say.
Today's Charm Words are about making space for different voices and perspectives.
Doing so can improve our relationships with people and also help us learn about others.
Let's do some belly breathing,
Then we'll do our affirmations.
When you breathe in,
Use your nose and keep your shoulders still.
Once your belly fills up like a balloon,
Breathe out through your mouth by just letting go.
In through the nose,
Out through the mouth.
Ready?
Take a gentle,
Deep breath slowly through your nose and breathe out through your mouth.
In through your nose and out through your mouth.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
One more time,
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
Today's Charm Words are,
I am a great listener.
I'll say it first,
Then repeat after me.
Ready?
I am a great listener.
I am a great listener.
I am a great listener.
I am a great listener.
I am a great listener.
I am a great listener.
Awesome job!
By tuning in to what others have to say,
We show that we care about their feelings and are willing to learn new things.
On the count of three,
High five the person closest to you or clap your hands together and high five yourself.
Ready?
One,
Two,
Three.
