"The Big Love in My Little Heart" - 5 Minute Meditation for Children Facing Hardships

Mini Meditations for Kids

"The Big Love in My Little Heart" - 5 Minute Meditation for Children Facing Hardships: This mindfulness and breathing exercise is meant to help children when they are experiencing times of disruption, unease, or general anxiety.
Life can be heavy. When we are faced with unknowns, it is easy to become fearful. Finding the love in our hearts can help to bring a sense of calm and peace to our world, even if just to the world within us. That love can then ripple out to the world around us, wrapping it in a blanket of peace.
Mindfulness is an important theme in 'The Paper Girls Show'. Together with "Making" and "Mistakes", they create the "3 M's of The Paper Girls Show", which serve as the series' pillars.
"Make things Mindfully – don't sweat your Mistakes", as our mantra goes!
The goal of this series is to help guide children through mindful breathing techniques, visualizations, and positive affirmations to self-soothe and use throughout the day when needed.
