Meditation With Children
Ages 5 and up
May 2011, Fr Laurence Freeman taught meditation to children of St. Theresa School in Houston, Texas, USA. Third graders talk about their experience with the meditation.
"I felt God in my heart. I liked it. It felt good. It was so peaceful. We used Maranatha a word from a prayer to help us. Anyways it was really quiet. It took me to me to my heart. I haven’t really felt that way before".
"I thought of God and some of my family. I also pray in my mind to God. I had a great time mediating and spinning some time with God. I am going to meditate with my whole family" .
