Hello,
My friend.
Before you start your day,
Let's take just a minute together.
You can sit,
Stand,
Or even wiggle a little,
Whatever feels good.
And now let's play a game.
Imagine there's a tiny glowing light right in the middle of your chest.
Can you see it?
It can be your favorite color.
This is your confidence light.
Let's make it grow.
Breathe in slowly,
And your light gets a little bigger.
And breathe out,
And it glows a little brighter.
Let's do that again.
Breathe in,
Grow your light.
Breathe out,
Let it shine.
One more time,
Big breath in.
Now that your light is strong,
And it's filling your whole body,
Let's give it some power words.
Repeat after me,
I am brave.
I am kind.
I am kind.
I can try new things.
I don't have to be perfect.
I am a good friend.
I can handle my day.
Now,
Imagine your light going with you to school,
Walking with you,
Sitting with you,
Helping you all day long.
And anytime you feel nervous,
You can take a breath and find your light again.
All right,
Let's take one more deep breath in,
And out.
And you,
My friend,
Are ready for an amazing day.
