May I Be Safe (Handwashing Song)✌️💕

We originally recorded this song in March of 2020. Now, nearly two years later, we still think it's important to wash our hands thoroughly and mindfully, so we're re-releasing this song as a tool for health and kindness inside and out. Whether you're learning it for the first time, or listening again, we hope you enjoy this song.What if instead of singing Happy Birthday each time we wash our hands, we sing a song that wishes ourselves and our world safety, health, peace, and kindness.We recorded a 20 second hand washing song to sing every time we wash our hands. This song was inspired by the ancient practice of loving kindness or metta meditation. There’s a lot of modern research that says loving kindness is a powerful tool that increases the well-being of both kids and adults.Special thanks to Kurt Gunn for the vocals and guitar. Check out Kurt Gunn at http://www.kurtgunn.com/And thank you to the children of Aldo Leopold Community School for the chorus.Enjoy and please share!Today's Affirmations:May I be safeMay I be healthyMay I be peacefulMay I be kindMay all be safeMay all be healthyMay all peacefulMay all be kindBest Day Yet is an AFFIRMATION podcast for KIDS!Mindfulness tools + Positive Thinking Adventures for a Calm & Confident School Day We practice: 🧘🏽‍♀️ Mindful breathing🐆 Animal adventures💗 Positive Affirmations Get your FREE PRINTABLES that go along with BDY episodes at www.bestdayyetpodcast.comFollow us on social media: Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/bestdayyetpodcastInstagram at https://www.instagram.com/best_day_yet_podcast/Twitter at https://twitter.com/bestdayyetpod Get bonus content on Patreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bestdayyet/support

Best HUG Yet!🤗💕 (Power Episode!)

This is a hugging meditation for kids, based on the practice created by Thich Nhat Hanh.

We better get hugging right away!For this practice you will need a stuffed animal, a pet, a friend, or a family member.If you're in the car and don't have any of those things available, don't worry...because you can hug yourself!Today's affirmations are based on the way we feel when we get a really good hug:I am happyI am lovedI am well protectedToday is going to be a good dayBest Day Yet is an AFFIRMATION podcast for KIDS!Mindfulness tools + Positive Thinking Adventures for a Calm & Confident School Day We practice: 🧘🏽‍♀️ Mindful breathing🐆 Animal adventures💗 Positive Affirmations Get your FREE PRINTABLES that go along with BDY episodes at www.bestdayyetpodcast.comFollow us on social media: Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/bestdayyetpodcastInstagram at https://www.instagram.com/best_day_yet_podcast/Twitter at https://twitter.com/bestdayyetpod Get bonus content on Patreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bestdayyet/support
