Spirit Animal Meditations - Album for Children

"Spirit Animal Meditations" is a meditation series designed for children. We released the first set of meditations in August 2020, with the 2nd set released later that November. The first album consists of three tracks- "Mother Bear", "Loving Dog", and "Magical Rabbit". The 2nd album was Ocean themed, consisting of- "Peaceful Whale", "Happy Dolphin", and "Wise Sea Turtle". 

These meditations were created with hope that they would bring a little peace into people's lives. With everything going on in the world, there's a lot of stress and emotional issues coming up, and we felt like creating something that would help people tap back into a calmer state. Originally they were created for children, but adults can enjoy these meditation journeys as well. We encourage parents and children to do the meditations together, it can be a relaxing time to share with each other. We hope you enjoy, and may it bring a bit of peace into your life.

"I had a stroke of inspiration to do something different than the usual art I create, and the idea of recording a guided meditation came to me. Because of all of the stress and upset that has been going on in the world for many sometime now, I know a lot of us are needing a way to get calm, regain some clarity and just breathe! Adults are surely stressed, but life has been very hard on children as well. A guided meditation seemed like a good way to offer a space for some relaxation and centering to take place. Kai suggested I use the animal themed meditations she had written awhile ago. These were written with kids in mind, though adults can enjoy them as well! I had a good time narrating Kai's lovely journeys with the Mother Bear, the Loving Dog, and the Magical Rabbit. Avery's audio ambience adds a calming background music. I am very pleased with how these turned out, and I feel this was a project I was called to do during this difficult time. So please enjoy these, whether you are a child or adult. I encourage parents to participate in the meditations with your children. We wish you all love, courage and clarity in these changing times." -Arianna

“When you meditate and connect to something greater, you can create and then memorize such coherence between your thoughts and feelings that nothing in your outer reality—no thing, no person, no condition at any place or time—could move you from that level of energy.”― Joe Dispenza
