    Ceci est une MÉDITATION POUR LE COUCHER centrée sur le thème de la BIENVEILLANCE, et située à Grenade, Espagne.

    Les enfants sont guidés vers un moment de détente profonde, confortablement installés dans leur lit à la maison, où ils se concentrent sur leur respiration tout en écoutant une activité audio de temps calme.

    Cette méditation peut être utilisée comme routine du soir avant de se coucher pour les aider à plonger dans le pays des rêves, ou bien avant une sieste.

    La Pratique Respiratoire de ce mois-ci est la respiration du Cercle.
