Preparations

Make sure the children have found a quiet spot to meditate. This could be in the classroom, or in the playroom or gym hall. They can meditate lying down or seated, with their eyes open or closed. The most important thing is that they feel comfortable in whatever position they choose.

Meditation on Wheatfields 

Explain: These paintings by Vincent are called Wheatfield Under Thunderclouds and Wheatfield with Crows.

We’re going to meditate with Skylar. It might help you relax. Find a good place to sit or lie down and listen carefully to what Skylar says. Skylar will tell you exactly what to focus on.
