Meditation for children, it is the key to raise offspring with a sense of focus and well being. It is an endeavor of creating a harmonious balance of the physiological as well as psychological growth of the child .It alleviates stress and anxiety, frustration, fear, anger, restlessness, and many more symptoms that the children suffer in the fast paced life.
Sahajayoga meditation is a creative way to meditate and build bonds of joy with our friends. We will experience the benefits of daily meditation through simple and fun techniques.
What does Sahajayoga mean?
Dear children, Sahaj means simple and yoga means connection with god. We know we all are the children of god then we should have the connection with god, but how?
It’s very simple; we will have the connection with god through meditation.
First of all we should know our “subtle system”.
Our subtle system consists of three channels .The sun channel, the moon channel and the lotus. The moon channel is located along the left side of our body and controls our feelings. The sun channel is located along the right side of our body and controls our actions. The lotus channel is located along our spine it controls time.
We also have seven flowers (or energy centers) starting from the bottom of our spine all the way to the top of our head. Each of these beautiful flowers has a special quality and super powers that you can feel when you meditate. These flowers have a particular way to communicate with you. They send messages to your hands because each finger has a relationship with them.
At the bottom we have the main important thing known kundalini who is our mother. To whom we can ask for our sorrows for our studies and for many other things. She will help us.

The first center is Mooladhar there God Ganesha is staying. We know about god Ganesha he is very intelligent. Now we will see story of “GANESHA AND THE CAT”
Ganesh is the son of the Mother Goddess, Parvati, like all children, he was sent to school to become clever.
On the first day, he learnt the first three letters of the alphabet: A, B, C, He was very exited when he came to his mother saying, Mum, Mum, play with me. But Mum was busy. She ask him to play by himself in the garden, Ganesh went into the garden, and there he saw the neighbor’s cat, Ganesh said Cat, play with me. We are going to play the game of school. I am going to be the teacher, and you will be my student. I will teach you the alphabets.
In wobbly writing he wrote on the broad “A B C” Then he pointed at “A” and said to the cat, “Repeat after me, A……. “The cat just went Meow”. Ganesh said , Cat is not very clever ,Repeat after me, “A B ,The Cat went Meow, Meow………Ganesh was getting annoyed with the cat . He said Cat! You must learn the alphabets properly, otherwise I will be angry with you! He then pointed at the letters on the board and said, “Repeat after me ,A B C……… The Cat went Meow, Meow………Ganesh felt very annoyed and told the cat off, waving his finger at it. The cat did not like being told off, and ran away feeling sad.
Ganesh decided to go back into his house. When he returned, he was surprised to see mum looking very sad, Ganesh asked, “ Mum, Why do you look so sad? Parvati sad, Come here my boy, and tell me, what were you doing just now? Ganesh said I was just playing in the garden with the cat, Mum asked, “Were you angry with the cat?” Ganesh thought oh oh ! he replied, “just a little.”
The mother goddess said, “Listen to me my boy, and listen carefully. This is the most important lesson you will learn in your life. I, the Mother Goddess, am the mother of the whole universe, and live in everything. It is me who lives in the cat, so when you are angry with me my boy. Do you now understand why I feel sad? Ganesh now understand. It is God alone who lives in all living thing. So if we hurt or harm anything, We hurt God. From that day, Ganesh would never hurt any living thing.
When this mooladhar chakra establish within us we will get the quality of Ganesh.
The second center is “SWADISHTHAN”
We know the whole universe has been created by God. Who did this great task?
The deity “ BRAMHADEV SARASWATI” .
After establishing this center within us we can draw picture easily, we can learn dancing painting, quickly.

When this chakra enlightened we feel peace within us. We will be always happy.
The Goddess” Laxmi Narayan” resides in this chakra.
The goddess of satisfaction and peace.
The “HEART CHAKRA”
Goddess” Durga” resides in our heart. It gives us courage and we became courageous person.
“VISHUDDHI CHAKRA”

The “SAHASRARA CHAKRA”
This is the important center in our body through which we can feel cool vibrations on our body. Here resides the “Adishakti” “Shri Mataji”. Here we connected with the power of God.
Now we see how to meditate and established these chakras within us.
KUNDALINI
Dear children, Everybody has a spiral energy called Kundalini that looks like a golden star inside of us and it is located in the lower part of our tummy. The Kundalini is very friendly and intelligent because it knows us very well and takes care of us like daddy and mommy do. Meditating with the Kundalini is the most beautiful experience that Mother Nature can give us.
Now let’s see how to meditate?
Sit quietly on the ground.
Put our right hand on your heart and say this wish out-loud 3 times: I am the spirit.
Put your right hand on the top on your head and move your right hand clock-wise seven times and say the following wish out-loud 7 times:
“Mother Kundalini, please wake up and take care of me.”
Put back his right hand on your lap and be quiet for a bit so the Kundalini can start rising.
To finish put your left hand on the top of his head keeping some distance from the head and if you can feel a cool breeze coming out from the top of your head. Then try with your right hand. Does you feel a cool breeze there too?
Now your Kundalini has awakened. If you want to repeat the exercise you are welcome to, however it is not necessary once it has been done once. You need to meditate daily to nourish the Kundalini and keep it healthy.
There are some techniques to clean our chakras.
We highly recommend cleaning the chakras of you each day by foot soaking .
Here are the items you need to get:
- A chair
- Towel
- A plastic bucket
- A jug
- Salt
How to do the foot soak
? You can do the foot soak treatment anytime of the day, especially if you child is a big down, tired or very active and restless. We also advise doing the foot soak before you goes to bed.
? Fill the bucket with enough water to cover the ankles. You can try using lukewarm water if you is a bit down or tired. If you are very active and restless use cold water. However, the most important thing is that the temperature is comfortable.
? Fill the jug with water.
? Add two handfuls of salt to the bucket. The salt water used for soaking the feet is particularly good for cleansing the Swadhistana, Nabhi and Void chakras.
? sit in the chair, raise his Kundalini, give a bandhan, put your feet in the bucket and meditate. During the foot soak keep your eyes open so that your chakras have a complete cycle to clear out.
? To make this experience enjoyable you can sing this song. As you sing the song make clock-wise circles around your chakras. This helps them to clear out more quickly. Remember to start cleaning your flowers from the bottom to the top of your head.

Please pour the water from the bucket into the toilet and rinse the bucket with fresh water. We also recommend to use the bucket and the towel exclusively for foot soaking.
