The speaker's two children are participating in a two-month yoga challenge. The purpose of the challenge is to strengthen their bodies and become more flexible. The speaker explains that different types of meditation can be done using the senses, such as gazing at a lamp or listening to audio. The speaker also discusses the importance of the touch sense and how it affects every cell in the body. They explain the endocrine system and how positive affirmations can have a positive impact on the body. The children now meditate on their bodies and listen to music while doing yoga. The speaker considers this a successful way to teach their children about meditation and positive affirmation. Be Blessed by the Divine, My two children have taken up two months yoga challenge. Every day they practice and record certain set of asanas and send it to their teacher. One day while they were doing, I asked them, What is the purpose of you doing this asana? And end of the second month, what is your expectation after completing your challenge? My son is elder and he is 13 years old. He answered saying, We might get strengthened and we will be more flexible. My younger one, she couldn't answer because she is too young to answer such questions. Then I asked, What is meditating upon your body? My son said, Why do we meditate upon body while doing yoga asanas? While it is only to strengthen your muscles and make you more flexible. Then I asked him, When you do Om Pranayam, you are activating your defense organ that is your mouth. And while you do Nadi Suti Pranayam, you use your nose to meditate on your breath. And when you use your eyes, I told him there is some meditation like gazing on the lamp or looking at the mirror. There are different types of meditation where you use your eyes to meditate. And also there are some audios we can hear and meditate upon. So you have four types of meditation for the four sense organs. But what about the fifth sense that is the touch sense? The touch sense is not only for the skin, but it's also for each and every cell inside our body, inside our organs. He wasn't convinced enough. So I started explaining him about the endocrine system. That is the glands, the seven chakras we have in our body. As he is in standard eight, he understood what are the glands and the importance of each and every gland. But I told him when you do this asana, your this chakra gets activated. So when you're doing asana, if you meditate upon your body, your organ, or sending a positive affirmation to your body, to your organ, it gives a positive result. Then finally he got somehow convinced. I gave him an example of how positive thought or changed a person who suffered from cancer and how they have got survived from cancer. And finally he was convinced. And now we play music while they do yoga. So they do relax and meditate upon their body. And this is the story of how I taught my children how to meditate upon their body and send positive affirmation, positive signals to their body while doing yoga.
