This children's meditation was inspired by the rock hyraxes (we call them "dassies") of South Africa that have the habit of soaking up the sunshine on the rocky cliffs where they live. It teaches children to first become calm by focusing on the breath, and then they are gently led through a short visualisation, becoming mindful of feeling grounded, warm and safe. There is also an accompanying story available for this meditation, titled "Bedtime Story: Sitting Still Like A Dassie".
