Sometimes getting to sleep can be a real challenge, and when kids rail against bedtime, parents can feel overwhelmed. During this unique global time, anxiety is running high and many families are finding bedtime to be an extra challenge. Now there’s relief, and it comes in the form of a magical elevator… all the way to Calmland, where kids can drift off to sleep after settling into each progressive calming level.
Take a magical ride down to ‘Calmland’; Designed for kids aged 6-12 (PS: adults love this one too).
Creator and leading mindfulness expert Jeff Warren gives kids the ultimate, fun-filled control during this dreamy Creative Mind Journey…
Do you feel like you have so much energy you're going to explode? Are your parents or teachers pleading with you to please settle down? Well, my little friend, I do believe we must at least entertain the possibility that they have a point. FORTUNATELY, there is a quite amazing and very peaceful place inside us that we can visit called ... Calmland. It's really quite wonderful. Do you want to make a visit? Well then: we'll teach you to climb aboard your very own internal elevator and drop down and down and down. Each level gets calmer and calmer... and guess what? It's YOU who controls all the action. Note: If you like this track, you'll love Colourland - same elevator, opposite direction!.
This story builds: the capacity to move from highly active and agitated states to more calm and settled states, increased self-awareness and emotional intelligence.
INVITATION - WORK THIS JOURNEY INTO WEDNESDAY’S BEDTIME ROUTINE:
We invite you to cue up this 11 minute Creative Mind Journey right before bedtime. Kids should ideally be in bed, or in a quiet space, free from distraction. This story is all about calming down, while riding and controlling a magical elevator… to ultimately get some Deep Zzzzzzzs.
