Mindfulness for Kids: A guide on how to make an altar of your own so you can connect with positive energy and your true self

Have you ever wondered "what is an altar"?
 
Chances are, you already have one or more altars in your home or room, but you hadn’t realized that’s what they are!
 
A lot of times the word altar can bring up an idea of religion or something that's connected to a church or a temple. But, it doesn’t matter at all what culture or religion you are, it's just a way to express your creativity and connect with your true spirit!
 
Welcome to episode 4 of Chakra Talk! In this episode, I’m sharing everything I know about different types of altars, and how they’re simply a space to connect with your true self. It can be something as simple as a collection of family photos, or special items you really love.
 
I’m giving you the history of altars (which dates back millions of years), tips on how to make an altar of your own, how to use one to help you feel better on the days you need it, and ideas of what to include in a traveling altar to give you a sense of home wherever you are.
 
This tool is sure to make your everyday life a little more magical! It can be a large space or a small one, it doesn't matter at all as long as it has good energy and feels like somewhere you'd like to go to over and over again. 
 
I hope you build your own inspirational space and that it connects you to positive energy and your inner power.
 
Always remember you have the power inside of you to make all of your dreams come true!
 
Dream big, magical one!

If you want to share a picture of your altar with me, (it's absolutely optional because it might be something that you want to keep private) I’ll be happy to look at them!

Mindfulness for kids: Explaining “What is Spirit?” to a child

You know those moments when you feel really joyful and purely happy?
 
Those feelings come when you are connected to your spirit.
 
What is spirit, you may ask?
 
Since you can't see it, it makes it difficult to describe, but every spiritual tradition and religion has some connection to spirit.
 
Welcome to episode 3 of Chakra Talk! In today’s episode, I am guiding you in understanding your spirit! It’s the core truth of who you really are. 
 
It’s where your passion, joy, and true happiness live. I’ll be adding some more tools to your toolkit by helping you uncover ways to connect with spirit, and what it feels like when you’re disconnected from it. 
 
I’m recommending special tools like a Happy Place meditation you can do, how to use the Chakra Kids Oracle Card cards, and Camp Chakra Kids- which is filled with all kinds of activities, projects, meditations, and exercises that help you connect with your true self. 
 
You can use these tools to help you follow your heart and inner voice- so that you're fully connected to spirit when you need it most.
 
So, until next time, always remember that you have the power inside of you to make all of your dreams come true.
 
Dream big, magical one!

Mindfulness for Kids: How to teach your child about the mind-body connection

Did you know that what we think in our minds affects how we feel, and how we feel in our bodies affects how we think?
 
Have you ever had butterflies in your stomach before you had to perform, or has your throat felt tight when you’ve had to speak in front of a group of people?
 
The way we think and how we feel are intertwined, and those are some examples of your mind-body connection.
 
Welcome to episode 2 of Chakra Talk! Today, we are talking about the second part of the mind-body-spirit connection: the body! There is scientific proof that your mind and body are connected, and there are some very magical tools you can use to help yourself feel connected and calm when you need it most. 
 
We are discovering what a body scan is, and how to use our breath to feel calm. I also reveal one of my favorite ways to move big feelings out of your body, so you feel good and free!
 
Always remember you have all of the power inside of you to make all of your dreams come true!
 
Dream big, magical one!

Hi There Chakra Kids!

Hi there chakra kid!!
 
I’m so happy you’re visiting The Chakra Kids Podcast!
 
Do you ever wonder why the grownups around you practice yoga, fill the house with shiny crystals, light candles, or sit in silence for a loooong time- but when you ask them why they do these things- they can’t always explain it to you?! 
 
Well, the adults in your life love you sooo very much and that's why they sent you here!
 
They want you to discover all about the magic of the Universe, but sometimes they have a hard time explaining all these magical tools and ideas to you, so they sent me to show you the way!
 
Hi! I'm Carly- I'm a licensed, intuitive therapist (kinda like a Magical Wizard) that helps kids like you connect to your inner power, listen to your heart, and share your voice- so you can grow up living the life of your dreams.
 
Think of me as your mystic guide! I'll not only help you discover the tools you'll need to navigate your path- but also when and how to use them!
 
Some of my favorite tools we’ll be using are mindfulness, essential oils, healing energy crystals, yoga, and Chakra Kids (those are my friends that help me show you how powerful you are)!
 
Here at Chakra Talk, we will be talking about how to uncover your magic, and how to take the challenges in life, and turn it into peace and calm.
 
I’ll introduce you to special ancient and mystical tools to help you on your quest of being and becoming the happiest human you can possibly be!
 
So, grab your favorite snack and get cozy, (invite your grown-up to share in the fun), because magical, mystical adventures are about to begin!
 
Dream big, magical one!
 
Carly
