All kids can benefit from a self-esteem boost, and even more so if they are navigating one of the many challenges that naturally occur in everyday kid-life. To help with this, I've created this kid-sized version of some of my favorite "I AM" affirmations. I AM affirmations are simple, but powerful. Any words that follow the statement I AM are literally creating the conditions being spoken about, and this meditation is intended to help kids plant their seeds of positivity and resilience.

Hi everyone!

Today we're going to talk about magic.

And even better,

We're going to make some magic.

Think about your favorite magic character for a second.

Could be a fairy,

Or a princess,

Or a superhero.

They can all do some pretty amazing things,

Right?

Where do we think their power comes from?

They all have a special kind of magic.

And what's special about it is that it comes from inside of them.

They are all brave and confident and have their own superpowers inside them,

Just like each and every one of us do.

So today we're going to spend a couple of minutes finding our own magic.

You know what's helpful when we're making magic?

A magic word,

Of course.

You might already know one.

Abracadabra.

We're going to use another magic word that works just like a magic wand to help us bring out our own magic.

Our words are going to be I AM.

Whenever you hear the words I AM,

Remember that whatever word comes after it is what we're creating.

Let's give it a try now.

Let's all close our eyes,

Take a big deep breath in,

And then blow it all the way out.

Let's do it one more time and take a big deep breath in and blow it all the way out.

And now keeping our eyes closed,

Let's breathe normally and listen to some magic words.

I am loved.

I am kind.

I am helpful.

I am smart.

I am safe.

I am a good friend.

I am clever.

I am calm.

I am a problem solver.

I am hopeful.

I am brave.

I am loving.

I am protected.

I am unique.

I am confident.

I am peaceful.

I am good at sharing.

I am me.

I am magic.

I am creative.

I am curious.

I am learning.

I am honest.

I am growing.

I am awesome.

I am patient.

I am healthy.

I am gentle.

I am important.

I am proud of myself.

I am thoughtful.

I am beautiful.

I am strong.

Simple, positive, and good length for short attention spans! I find that a lot of meditations for children introduce the idea of a villain or a negative voice in their head to overcome…. Which to me sometimes plants a negative thought in their heads! This was perfect, no negativity. Positive and imaginative.
