Hi everybody, welcome.
[0:49]
Miss Kelly here.
[0:51]
We practice our school yoga together.
[0:55]
Have a seat.
[0:56]
Easy pose.
[0:58]
Wonderful.
[0:59]
I see so many people ready.
[1:00]
Sitting down on the ground, crossed ankles, sitting
[1:04]
up nice and tall, hands together.
[1:10]
I have a story.
[1:13]
And thank you for listening.
[1:17]
I went for a walk in this beautiful
[1:21]
park.
[1:22]
Oh, I just love to go on a
[1:26]
walk in the park with the trees, with
[1:30]
the plants, with the flowers.
[1:33]
I also saw some wonderful things as well.
[1:41]
I saw a bunny.
[1:46]
I saw fish in the pond.
[1:51]
I saw little bees on the flowers.
[1:57]
I saw birds flying.
[2:01]
And I saw a goose sitting in the
[2:07]
grass, goose in the grass.
[2:11]
And then kids were nearby to me.
[2:19]
They looked over at the goose.
[2:24]
The most wonderful thing happened.
[2:28]
Everybody, those kids did not run over towards
[2:35]
the goose.
[2:36]
They did not make a lot of noise.
[2:40]
I watched those kids walk so carefully and
[2:46]
quietly closer to the goose, not too close.
[2:52]
And I saw those kids sit down so
[3:00]
wonderfully and peacefully nearby to the goose.
[3:08]
It really was a wonderful thing to see.
[3:12]
Everybody, please sit tall with me, hands into
[3:15]
calm hearts, calm breathing, calm hearts.
[3:19]
Help us to be peaceful with others.
[3:25]
Please say peaceful with others.
[3:30]
Like the kids in my story.
[3:33]
Oh my goodness, they peacefully sat nearby, not
[3:38]
too close, but nearby to the goose.
[3:42]
They were peaceful.
[3:43]
The goose was peaceful.
[3:45]
That's what we like, everybody.
[3:48]
And when we are peaceful with others, yes,
[3:53]
we open our learning.
[3:55]
We can learn so much more.
[3:56]
We're thinking better.
[3:57]
We're feeling better.
[3:58]
We're learning better.
[4:00]
So let's practice our calm breathing, calm hearts.
[4:03]
Here we go.
[4:04]
We will sing our hearts, our calm.
[4:09]
Hands into calm hearts, calm breath in, and
[4:14]
calm breath out, and calm breath in.
[4:20]
And calm breath out.
[4:22]
Good.
[4:23]
Let's sing together.
[4:25]
Calm breath in.
[4:40]
Good.
[4:40]
Calm breath in, calm breath out.
[4:44]
Excellent.
[4:45]
Easy pose, sitting tall, hands on two knees,
[4:48]
left hand.
[4:50]
Oh, our circle today, our arm circle is
[4:53]
like a goose's egg.
[4:55]
Calm breath in, and calm breath out.
[4:58]
Let's make it a little bit smaller today.
[5:01]
Goose's egg.
[5:02]
Calm breath in, and calm breath out.
[5:06]

[5:25]
And we're making a circle.
[5:27]
How about like a golden goose's egg?
[5:33]
Calm breath in, and calm breath out.
[5:38]
Golden goose's egg.
[5:40]
Calm breath in, calm breath out.
[5:44]
A little bit smaller.
[5:46]
Calm breath in, calm breath out.

[6:00]
Little fish's eyes swimming in the pond.
[6:04]

[6:09]
Calm breath in, head is back.
[6:12]
Calm breath out, head is forward.
[6:15]
Good, everybody.
[6:16]
Calm breath in, calm breath out.
[6:20]

Today we're learning another school meditation.

And then say, calm breathing, calm hearts.
[15:32]
And just like all of our school meditations,
[15:36]
we know it helps us to have calm
[15:39]
breaths.
[15:42]
Choosing peace with others.
[15:46]
It helps us to have calm hearts.
[15:51]
Peaceful with others.
[15:54]
So smart to be peaceful with others.
[15:57]
And then great learning.

[16:10]
And calm breath out.
[16:14]

Hi everybody, welcome, Ms. Kelly here.
[0:52]
Let's practise our school yoga together.
[0:56]
Sitting in easy pose, sitting up tall.
[1:01]
If you want to be tall, you know
[1:03]
you have to sit tall.
[1:05]
Hands together.
[1:08]
We learned that calm breathing, calm hearts help
[1:16]
us to be peaceful with others.

Everybody, let's make our hands into calm hearts
[1:21]
and let's say peaceful with others.
[1:27]
Now, we have to practise being peaceful.
[1:34]
Why do we need to practise being peaceful?
[1:39]
Because if we are frustrated, if we are
[1:46]
angry, if we are sad, everybody, we don't
[1:51]
think very good.
[1:53]
No.
[1:54]
We don't feel very good.
[1:56]
When we practise calm breathing, calm hearts, practise
[2:01]
being peaceful, remember, we are more peaceful with
[2:06]
ourselves, yeah, not sad, not frustrated, and we
[2:13]
are peaceful with others.
[2:16]
Well, we think so much better, we feel
[2:19]
so much better when we are peaceful with
[2:22]
others and ourselves.
[2:25]
So, let's practise.
[2:29]
We will sing our hearts are calm today.

[5:12]
We like to be peaceful with others, and
[5:16]
we need to practise being peaceful.
