Hi, everybody.
[0:48]
Miss Kelly here.
[0:50]
Let's practice our school yoga together.
[0:53]
Thank you for sitting in easy pose.
[0:57]
Thank you for sitting up nice and tall,
[0:59]
hands together.
[1:02]
I have a story.
[1:05]
Thank you for your best listening.
[1:10]
So, you know, I have my two kittens,
[1:13]
Freya and Fernando.
[1:16]
I love them.
[1:19]
Now, when I practice my calm breathing, calm
[1:23]
hearts every day, sometimes Freya will rest right
[1:30]
beside me.
[1:32]
Yes.
[1:33]
Remember, Freya is the kitten that has so
[1:36]
much courage and is learning how to be
[1:40]
gentle.
[1:40]
Yeah.
[1:42]
Well, every once in a while, I might
[1:48]
have to sneeze.
[1:50]
And Freya looks at me and she makes
[1:55]
a little noise.
[1:58]
And she runs away.
[2:03]
And I'm thinking, but it was just a
[2:07]
sneeze.
[2:10]
And other times when I'm practicing my calm
[2:14]
breathing, calm hearts, Fernando will rest next to
[2:20]
me.
[2:20]
And I really love when my kittens are
[2:22]
nearby.
[2:23]
And remember, Fernando is the kitten that is
[2:26]
so gentle and learning how to have courage.
[2:31]
But everybody, if I happen to sneeze, I
[2:37]
chew.
[2:40]
Fernando also looks at me, makes that strange
[2:45]
little noise, and also runs away.
[2:51]
Now, is sneezing a big problem?
[3:00]
No.
[3:02]
Sneezing is not a big problem.
[3:05]
I don't know why Freya and Fernando think
[3:10]
it's a big problem.
[3:11]
But I do know that everybody, when we
[3:15]
have our calm breathing and our calm hearts,
[3:19]
we are okay with little problems because we
[3:25]
are peaceful.
[3:31]
Yes.
[3:32]
So, when we're peaceful, we can even solve
[3:36]
little problems.
[3:38]
Yes.
[3:39]
So, please sit nice and tall with me.
[3:41]
Hands into calm hearts.
[3:43]
And let's say peaceful.
[3:47]
Let's be peaceful because that is how we
[3:49]
are learning and having great days, yes, together
[3:53]
at school and everywhere.
[3:56]
Peaceful.
[3:58]
Practicing our calm breathing, calm hearts.
[4:01]
Hands are together, sitting up nice and tall.
[4:04]
And we will sing our hearts are calm
[4:06]
today.
[4:08]
Hands into our calm hearts.
[4:09]
Thank you.
[4:11]
Calm breath in.
[4:13]
And calm breath out.
[4:17]

Everybody take our left hand.

Also, the people around us are smiling more
[5:30]

[5:36]
Let's keep drawing those smiling faces.

[5:56]
Sitting tall.
[5:57]
Hands on two knees.
[5:58]
We make our head circle.
[6:01]
You know, we can make it so tiny,
[6:03]
like our own eyes.
[6:06]
Our eyes can be peaceful too.
[6:10]
Calm breath in.
[6:12]
And calm breath out.
[6:13]
We look at people with peaceful eyes.

And calm breath out.
[6:32]

[6:34]
Hands on two knees.
[6:34]
And shoulder circles back and around.
[6:37]
Calm breath in.
[6:39]
And calm breath out.
[6:41]
Good.
[6:42]
Calm bodies to the front.
[6:44]
Calm breath in.
[6:46]
And calm breath out.
[6:49]
All right.
[6:49]
Let's sit extra tall.
[6:51]
Who has their peaceful, calm hearts overhead?
[6:55]
Calm breath in.
[6:57]
And calm breath out.
[7:01]
Thank you for sharing peaceful, calm hearts.
[7:04]
So, let's bend our bodies a little bit
[7:08]
side to side.
[7:09]
Hands on two shoulders.
[7:11]
And let's say calm hearts are peaceful.
[7:18]
Here we go.
[7:20]
Calm hearts are peaceful.
[7:27]
And again.
[7:28]
Calm hearts are peaceful.
[7:38]
Calm hearts are peaceful.
[7:44]
Thank you.
[7:44]
Sit tall.
[7:45]
Calm breath in.
[7:47]
And calm breath out.
[7:50]
And hands are down.
[7:53]
Now, we are going to imagine that we
[7:56]
are flying a helicopter.
[7:59]
We're going to be the pilots.
[8:02]
Do we need to be focused?
[8:04]
Yes.
[8:05]
Do we need to be peaceful?
[8:07]
Yes.
[8:09]
So, when we are in our helicopter, let's
[8:12]
imagine the color of our helicopter.
[8:16]
How about today?
[8:19]
Orange.
[8:21]
Shiny orange.
[8:24]
And what color are our pilot calm hearts?
[8:30]
Raise hand.
[8:30]
Teacher will call on someone to give us
[8:32]
the color of our pilot calm hearts.
[8:40]
Excellent.
[8:41]
Now, where are we going?
[8:43]
Please raise hand.
[8:44]
Teacher will call on one person.
[8:46]
Where are we going in our helicopters?
[8:54]
Good.
[8:55]
And we go because we want to help
[8:57]
being peaceful and helping.
[8:59]
How about we help all doctors and nurses?
[9:05]
Yes.
[9:05]
They help us and so many.
[9:08]
So, let's go help the doctors and nurses.
[9:11]
Now, we are going to stand in a
[9:15]
moment and we are going to move carefully
[9:19]
and say calm hearts are peaceful.
[9:27]
Here we go.
[9:28]
Let's stand.
[9:31]
Okay.
[9:33]
Helicopter pose.
[9:35]
We're ready.
[9:36]
We need a little more room.
[9:39]
So, take your arms out and move over.
[9:41]
Give your neighbor room.
[9:44]
Okay.
[9:44]
Arms and hands are down.
[9:46]
Step one.
[9:48]
Feet a little bit apart.
[9:49]
Stand nice and tall, everybody.
[9:52]
Calm breath in.
[9:54]
Calm breath out.
[9:57]
Step two.
[9:58]
Take our helicopter blades carefully to the side.
[10:03]
Calm breath in and calm breath out.
[10:08]
Okay.
[10:09]
Remember, we're going to say calm hearts are
[10:14]
peaceful.
[10:16]
Show me careful flying.
[10:19]
Let's go together.
[10:21]
Calm hearts are peaceful.
[10:29]
Calm hearts are peaceful.
[10:38]
Again.
[10:39]
Calm hearts are peaceful.
[10:46]
Land our helicopter so carefully.
[10:51]
Lots of wonderful, peaceful, calm hearts.
[10:54]
Good.
[10:55]
Calm breath in and calm breath out.
[11:00]
Arms and hands are down.
[11:03]
Please have a seat in easy pose.
[11:12]
Very good, everybody.
[11:15]
Let's practice our school meditation.
[11:19]
One of the best things for us to
[11:21]
practice.
[11:23]
When we practice our school meditation, it helps
[11:26]
us to have calm brains.
[11:28]
Everyone say calm brains.
[11:33]
Now, we think better.
[11:36]
We do with our calm brains.
[11:39]
We do.
[11:40]
We're thinking peacefully.
[11:43]
And our school meditation helps us to have
[11:45]
our calm hearts.
[11:46]
Everybody say calm hearts.
[11:48]
And we feel peaceful with calm hearts.
[11:54]
Yes, that feeling of peacefulness helps us to
[11:59]
have best learning.
[12:02]
Best learning.
[12:05]
All right.
[12:06]
So, we will practice spelling the word calm,
[12:12]
remembering our calm hearts the whole time and
[12:17]
how wonderful they are.
[12:19]
Peaceful.
[12:20]
Here we go.
[12:21]
C-A-L-M.
[12:27]
Sit tall.
[12:28]
C-A-L-M.
[12:34]
C-A-L-M.
[12:40]
C-A-L-M.
[12:46]
C-A-L-M.
[12:51]
C-A-L-M.
[12:51]
C-A-L-M.
[12:59]
C-A-L-M.
[13:04]
Calm hearts.
[13:06]
C-A-L-M.
[13:12]
C-A-L-M.
[13:18]
Good, everybody.
[13:20]
Calm breath in.
[13:21]
And calm breath out.
[13:24]
Very nice.
[13:25]
And hands are down.
[13:28]
So, in my story, my two kittens, Freya
[13:39]
and Fernando, what do
[13:48]
I do that they do not like?
[13:55]
Okay, I sneeze sometimes.
[13:58]
I mean, everybody has to sneeze.
[14:02]
I don't know why they think it's a
[14:04]
big problem.
[14:05]
Is sneezing a big problem, everybody?
[14:08]
No.
[14:09]
So, if we have our calm breathing and
[14:15]
our calm hearts, we are okay with little
[14:22]
problems because we are, word starts with the
[14:27]
P, peaceful.
[14:30]
Please sit tall with me.
[14:31]
Please say peaceful.
[14:34]
All right, we think better.
[14:36]
We can solve those problems.
[14:38]
We can have great days of learning with
[14:40]
our wonderful, peaceful, calm hearts.
[14:45]
So, lift our calm hearts.
[14:47]
If we're going to be peaceful everywhere we
[14:48]
go today, do your best.
[14:50]
You can do it.
[14:51]
I know you can.
[14:54]
Let's have great learning.
[14:57]
Peaceful learning.
[14:59]
Let's end our class.
[15:00]
Calm breath in.
[15:02]
Calm breath out.
[15:04]
And calm breath in.
[15:07]
Smiling, calm hearts.
[15:11]
Thank you, everybody.
[15:14]
We practice our calm breathing, calm hearts every
[15:17]
day.
[15:18]
Smiling, calm hearts.
[15:20]
