Today I am not going to school.

It is a holiday!

Today I am not going to watch TV.

There is no electricity anyway.

What am I going to do?

Today I am going to listen to my body!

First, I have to be very quiet.

So that I can listen to my own body.

Yes, now I can hear my breath.

I breathe in and out, in and out.

And I can make my breath noisier. Sssssssssssss!

And softer. Mmmmmmm.

Now I can hear my heart beating!

Doodom, doodoom, dooo dooom.

Can I make my heart go faster or louder?

Yes, by jumping up and down twenty times.

Now see, my heart is beating faster.

If I put my fingers on my wrist, then I can feel my pulse!

I can hear myself laughing.

Haha, haha, haaah, haaa!

I can hear myself crying.

Boohoooo hooo!

I can hear myself clapping.

Clap, clap, clap.

I can hear my stomach rumbling!

Guddu, guddu, guddu.

My stomach is saying, "Feed me!"

My nose can smell cakes baking in mother's kitchen.

And now I want to hear my jaws chewing those cakes!
