585. A Different Princess: a mindful bedtime story

Allie and Anora learn that there is more than one way to play princess. Narrator: Male Story Begins: 5:13 A Different Princess Excerpt: It was a bright sunny day on Ahway Island. The sunlight shone through the windows of a cute little house on a quiet street. The sunbeams sparkled on the waters of the shimmering pond in the backyard, warming up all the froggies and pond fish who lived in the pond. Inside the house, Allie was sitting at the kitchen table, watching the shiny pond as she ate her lunch. Today was an exciting day. Allie was going to Anora Lewis' house for the very first time! Allie had played with Anora plenty of times in groups with their other friends, but today was extra special. She was going to play with just Anora and see her friend’s house and backyard.   Allie loved going on new adventures, and Anora did too. That was one reason why they were becoming such good friends. Allie knew that Anora’s house was right at the edge of the Ahway Island Forest, one of Allie’s favorite places to go with her family. So Allie was especially excited to play with Anora in her backyard. Today’s Meditation: Relax your whole body from head to toe in this meditation.
