1
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:09,920
Speaker 1: Hello, little yogis welcome to our meditation. Find a quiet,

2
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,400
Speaker 1: comfy place to sit and let's get started. You'll want

3
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 1: to have a mirror close by, I'll tell you, and

4
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: to use it. Invite mom, Dad, big sis or big

5
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,279
Speaker 1: Bro to join you. This one's going to be fun.

6
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:26,320
Speaker 1: Do you know how to meditate? Of course you do.

7
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: Meditation is just being mindful of what is happening right now.

8
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: And what is mindfulness? It is simply noticing the present moment.

9
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 1: We all meditate every day. It just depends on what

10
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: we choose to focus on today. Let's focus on what

11
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:47,559
Speaker 1: is special about each one of us. That's right. If

12
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: you're listening to this, you are the most special you

13
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: there will ever be. That's something to celebrate. Always in meditation,

14
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: it's important to breathe fresh news air into our bodies

15
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 1: to make room for magic. Close your eyes for a moment.

16
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: Place one hand on your belly and one on your heart.

17
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 1: Feel the rise and fall of your belly as you

18
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: breathe naturally. Now, notice the beat of your heart. No

19
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 1: one else's heart is beating the way yours is. Right now.

20
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: These two feelings mean you're alive. What a gift. Together

21
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 1: let's give ourselves a big breath in. Breathing in through

22
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: your nose, fill up your belly like a balloon to

23
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 1: the count of three, one, two three, Hold it for

24
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: a moment, and breathing out from your mouth, empty your

25
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: belly for a count of three to one. Breathe in

26
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 1: for one, two three, hold and empty your belly for

27
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: three two one. Do this a few times on your own.

28
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: Counting in your head helps create a rhythm of breath.

29
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: When you feel ready, gently open your eyes and place

30
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 1: your hands on your lap. Next, with your eyes still open,

31
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: sit on your bottom and send your legs out long

32
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 1: in front of you. You can lean back on your

33
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: hands if that's comfortable. Your toes should be staring right

34
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 1: back at you. Wiggle your toes and slowly start to

35
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: scan your body from your toes to ankles, up to

36
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 1: your legs and your knees. Notice anything different, maybe a

37
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: scar or a birthmark you forgot you had. When you

38
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: notice something, stop right there and stare at it a

39
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 1: little longer. Look at it with love and try to

40
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: remember the story of how it became a part of you.

41
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 1: If there's nothing you remember about it, just get it

42
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: with love. Thanking it for being a part of you.

43
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 1: As a kid, I played a lot and fell down

44
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 1: even more. I have many scars on my legs and

45
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: knees that remind me of all the care free and

46
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: fearless fun I had when I was your age. Those

47
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,519
Speaker 1: moments are a part of my journey, and they make

48
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 1: me special. Your scars make you special too. Let's keep scanning.

49
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 1: Now we'll travel up our legs to our bellies. Oh,

50
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: look at that. We've reached our belly buttons. This is

51
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: what connected us to our moms and their bellies. We

52
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: all have one, and yet no two are the same.

53
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: Pretty special if you ask me. While we're here, let's

54
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: bring our hands palms face up, give me a thumbs up. Now,

55
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 1: face the inside of your thumb towards you. Notice all

56
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: the tiny squirlies your thumbprint is made of, just like

57
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: your belly button. No two thumbprints are the same. That

58
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: means almost eight billion people on planet Earth and not

59
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:18,239
Speaker 1: a single person has the same fingerprint. Okay, remember the mirror.

60
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 1: It's time to stand in front of it. Pause this

61
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 1: video and find the nearest mirror. Now that we are

62
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: face to face with our own reflection, let's start with

63
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: a smile. Smile back at the beautifully unique, special human

64
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: you see in front of you. Do this with a

65
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: friend or family member to make it even more fun.

66
00:04:53,560 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: Inhale through your nose, exhale, flutter your lips together. Do

67
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: you feel the vibration that your lips send through your

68
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: entire body. Let's do it again. Inhale, exhale, flood or

69
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 1: your lips together. Stare silently at yourself. Notice everything about

70
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 1: your face, eyebrows, your nose, your eyes. Maybe you have freckles,

71
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 1: maybe you don't. Whatever it is, it's beautiful and it's you.

72
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 1: Prepare to repeat after me. I am special. There is

73
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: no one who can be me better than me. My talents,

74
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: my heart, my bravery, my love, it is all so

75
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: so unique. I am a gift to the whole world.

76
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 1: You did awesome. Thank you for simply being you. I'm

77
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 1: so grateful to share this planet with someone as special

78
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: as you are. Choose to have a beautiful day. Choose

79
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 1: to have a beautiful year. Choose to have a beautiful
