about

This meditation explores non-harming, helping, kindness and the truth of our basic human goodness. It provides a framework for children to "promise" or state their intentions to do their best not to harm -- and also to help -- people, animals, plants, the earth and themselves.

You can also introduce finger play into this meditation with the non-harming and helping phrases as follows [start with the right hand]:

--"I will do my best to not harm people" (touch thumb to pinkie finger)
--"I will do my best to not harm animals" (touch thumb to ring finger)
--"I will do my best to not harm plants" (touch thumb to middle finger)
--"I will do my best to not harm the earth" (touch thumb to pointer finger)
--"I will do my best to not harm myself" (point thumb to self)

And then use the same pattern but with the left hand with the "I will do my best be helpful and kind to..." phrases. Children love this!
