Heidi, Cherry & Vaya Have A Bubble Bath - Children's Meditation Story

Are you ready to meditate with Kari?

Make sure that you're laying down and you're comfortable in your bed and everything is just right in your room.

You're ready to relax and let go of your day.

Vea suggested to Heidi and Cherry that they have a bubble bath.

Believe it or not the cats had never had a bubble bath.

Vea had heard that bubble baths were very relaxing especially if you use lavender oil an essential oil in your bath so it smells yummy as well as it's warm and bubbly and snuggly.

Cherry and Heidi were not very convinced but they said they would give it a go so that Vea could show them a bubble bath.

Vea put lots and lots of bubbles in the bath maybe a little bit too much.

She also put lavender oil in so it smelled really nice.

They lit some candles and had candles placed around the bathroom only in safe places nowhere near curtains or anywhere where anything could catch on fire.

They were very careful about the candles and then all three cats slipped into the bubble bath.

Cherry said OMG OMG I don't get it I don't get it all the bubbles are like sticking on me they're going up my nose they're going in me ears I don't get how this is supposed to be relaxing at all it smells nice Vea very nice I do like the lavender but I don't like the bubbles.

Vea said just lay back and try and relax Mia's heard that it's supposed to be very relaxing Cherry started laughing she looked over at Heidi and Heidi had got bubbles all over her glasses and she couldn't see anything Heidi said I can't see anything everything's white.

Cherry said you've got bubbles all over your glasses.

Heidi take your glasses off you can't have a bubble bath with glasses on I know that and I don't know absolutely anything about a bubble bath but I do know that you're not gonna be able to see anything especially all these bubbles I think Vea's put too many bubbles in.

Vea are we supposed to have this much bubbles?

There were a lot of bubbles like the bubbles were three times deeper than the water the bubbles were like overflowing over the bathtub there were so many bubbles.

Vea said me me thought that you were supposed to have lots of bubbles.

Cherry said I have an idea I know what we can do and then she put bubbles all over her face.

Ho ho ho said Cherry.

Ho ho ho Merry Christmas.

Vea started laughing.

Oh you're Santa?

Yeah so Cherry I'm Santa ho ho ho Merry Christmas everyone now Merry Christmas I've got you a bubble bath and you're supposed to be enjoying it.

Ho ho ho she blew the bubbles off her chin.

Vea put bubbles on her chest and around her bottom and said she had a cloud bikini.

Both Heidi and Cherry thought that was very funny.

Heidi put bubbles in the shape of an ice cream cone on the top of her head and said what am I?

Cherry said a white hat.

Vea said an ice cream.

Heidi said yep I'm an ice cream.

Cherry said oh yeah I see it I see it yeah you do look like an ice cream I get it the bubbles are the cone and your head is the ice cream yeah very funny no not really oh I don't think I like it I'm trying Vea I'm trying but these bubbles are under my arms they're under my back legs I've got bubbles on my tail I've got bubbles on my ears I've got bubbles on my whiskers I've got bubbles everywhere and they're not very clean are they?

I mean they're clean but do they make you clean these bubbles or do they just like bubble on you?

But I know what though I have noticed that it's quite loud if you really really really really really really really really really really really really quiet listen be quiet everyone shh be quiet everyone got really quiet and listened they could hear the bubbles popping in the bathtub just like tiny little hundreds and hundreds of bubbles popping at once I like that said Cherry I like that sound that's quite relaxing if you laid back and just listen to the bubbles popping and smell the lavender I can see it working but to be honest I don't think I really like it there Vea said me thinks we should just lay back and listen allow the candlelight to relax your body allow the lavender to relax your senses we need to relax and this bubble bath is supposed to do that give it a try me thinks we should just give it a try Heidi said okay I'm willing to try she got comfortable with a little bath pillow behind her head and laid her paws on the side of the bath and closed her eyes Cherry said all right yeah that does look comfortable all right I'm willing to give it a try she got comfortable with a little bath pillow laid down on her part of the bath and put her paws and her arms up on the side of the bath and closed her eyes they are did the same thing all three of them laid there listening to the bubbles popping you know said Cherry you know if you use your imagination and you just look at the bubbles look at them look at them everybody look at them just look at them it looks like we're in the sky you know when you want to play and you're flying over the sky and you look down and all you see is like marshmallows or like snow cuz sky from the clouds over the clouds when you're flying over the clouds not in the clouds over the clouds when you're playing over the clouds and you look down it looks like sky well no it looks like snow like you're you're floating over a snowy field or like snow on trees or or it could be marshmallows like when you open a bag of marshmallows and you just push your head inside the bag of the marshmallows and all you can see is fluffy white marshmallows that's what this looks like so look look look everybody look look at the look at the bubbles are in the bathtub and imagine imagine that we're on a cloud and we laid on a cloud and we're relaxing on the cloud and you're not falling through the cloud no and it's not a gray cloud no it's not got lots of rain in it no it's just a normal cloud and you're laying on the cloud and you and you're relaxing your body and and it's nice and warm just like this bathtub this bathtub's nice and warm and you're laying on the cloud can you imagine it via can you imagine laying on the cloud via said hmm me me can imagine I did can you imagine it can you imagine laying on the cloud as if you're floating in the sky on a fluffy white cloud oh you can imagine that you're laying on the snow yeah you're laying on the snow and it's really cold and it's fluffy and white and it's really cool cuz it's snow can you imagine that graphic imagine that you're not in this warm bath imagine that you're laying on the snow and it's really cold and you tell she's cold and your legs are cold and you and you and your tail's cold and your heads cold and you know this cold and everything's cold and if you tried really hard you could you could you could freeze could you imagine that you're frozen frozen like a frozen fish or frozen like a frozen lollipop like a frozen lollipop or you could be frozen like a I don't know like a an ice block oh I know what we could do we could imagine that we weren't just cats we could imagine that we're polar bears yeah white polar bears big white polar bears and we're on the snow and we're running across the snow imagine running on these bubbles don't you think that would be awesome Heidi don't you think that would be awesome Heidi said yeah they said oh yeah me me likes that idea yeah let's be polar bears I've always wanted to be a bear there's so much more interesting than just a cat I mean cats are awesome I know I'm absolutely awesome I'm like the best thing ever in the entire world but if I had a choice I think I would like to be a polar bear so close your eyes everyone close your eyes or open your eyes and just stare at the bubbles and imagine that you're a polar bear on the bubbles and you're running across the snow maybe you're chasing someone and you're gonna eat them if you catch them maybe oh no that doesn't sound very nice no don't do that that's not relaxing maybe you're just running on the snow because you just like to run on the snow and your big white heavy polar bear paws are bouncing down and banking on the snow the snow is flying everywhere and and and and I don't know what else maybe we have a baby polar bear with us maybe we're mommy polar bears yeah we could be mommy polar bears and we have a baby polar bear with us and the baby polar bears running behind us and we're running and running and running a really really running and running and running and running running and then we see a hole in the snow and we dive into the hole and swim under the water everybody dive down and get into the under the bathtub for a minute and pretend you're swimming like a polar bear.

Heidi,

Cherry and Veya all ducked underneath the bubbles and swam around underneath the water for a second and then all popped back up.

Oh dear!

And then and then and then and then and then and then we catch fish maybe underneath the ocean and then and then maybe we can like I don't know keep coming back up into the hole and taking a big breath and then going back down and catching a more fish and even more fish and then and then we realize it's really cold.

Heidi said it's really cold I'm going to imagine I'm in the warm bubble bath.

Oh yeah that's a good idea so Cherry that'll make us nice and warm.

All three cats laid back again and relaxed as if they were in the bubble bath and they were in the bubble bath so they didn't need to use their imagination.

Veya said hmm I am very relaxed I think I do like bubble baths.

Cherry said you know I don't think it's that bad it's not my bestest favoritest thing but I don't think it's that bad.

Heidi said I like it yes I like it.

The cats got quiet and laid back just closed their eyes,

Smelt the lavender listen to the bubbles hundreds and thousands of tiny little bubbles popping one after the other pop pop pop pop pop pop pop pop pop pop pop pop pop pop pop as if they were laid in a bowl of Rice Krispies popping pop pop pop pop pop pop it happened to be very relaxing they stayed there for the longest time in the bubble bath.

The end.
