At Home All Day - Active And Calm Kids

Dr. Conor Logan's daughter, Sonya Genevieve Logan, guest leads this child-focused meditation.
This is for kids stuck at home and feeling a little 'stir crazy.' Sonya gives them a chance to move and then also brings them down to focus on breathing, focusing, and staying calm.

Transcript

Hi,

My name is Sonya Genevieve Logan.

I just turned six and a half and I like to meditate.

My school got cancelled.

It's okay because everybody's going to be okay.

But I don't like being cooped up in my house.

Or with not all my friends with me.

And sometimes I just need to get some energy out.

So join me.

Stand up.

Put your two feet on the ground.

Now open your hands up high like you're flying to the sky.

Let's just shake our hands and legs a little bit.

Go ahead,

Shake them.

Dance a little bit.

Just even like jumping up and down a little bit times.

Whatever you want to do,

Just move a little bit.

Doesn't that just feel good just to move?

Feels good to me.

Now take a big,

Deep breath in.

And hold it.

Now let it out.

Feels good,

Right?

It feels good to me.

Why don't we do it again?

Breathe in.

And hold it.

And now let it out slowly.

When we do it slowly,

We help us to control our energy.

As kids,

We are all in control of ourselves.

We can be as active or as calm as we want to be.

So let's try being really calm.

And we do that by breathing.

So breathe in.

And hold it.

Breathe out.

And let our minds relax.

And now you might want to lay on the ground.

Go ahead,

Get on the ground.

And just try to be as comfortable as you can.

Breathe in.

Breathe out.

Let's do that a few more times.

Breathe in.

And breathe out very slowly.

Breathe in again.

And breathe out slowly.

And just keep enjoying this music.

And keep breathing.

Keep on enjoying the meditation.

My name is Sonia Genevieve Logan.

And thank you for meditating with me.

I really appreciate it.

Doesn't it feel good?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

That was absolutely awesome!! Little narrator 61/2 year old Sonia captures the attention of my 2 little ones in no time at all. After trying to engage my five-year-old and three-year-old in joining me to calm their unruly energy and outrageous physical behavior with a meditation- they took to none that I tried playing until I played this one! Highly recommend for overly energetic children

Neve, 10 yrs, says she is so cute! Eli, 8yrs, says it was fun! She put a lot of joy in our hearts first thing this morning... thank you so much!

That was so cute may you please do more and she should be proud of her self because she went and was like it’s ok about covid 19 and yeah it’s scary but meditation will slow your mind down. It will be ok

I am so proud of her!

Thank you for sharing such a wonderful meditation! My daughter is 2 and a half and enjoys practicing this meditation with Mommy!! 🙏🏽
