425. Goodnight, Roses: a meditation and calming story

Anora and her Mom go to the Botanic Gardens to say 'goodnight' to the roses for the season. Hello everyone!  We hope you enjoyed our new stories this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “Goodnight, Roses,” and we’ll be back with a new story on Monday! Narrator: Female Story Begins: 9:41 Goodnight, Roses Excerpt: Anora woke up feeling very excited. It was a beautiful morning in very late summer. Soon, it would be autumn, and the leaves would start to change from green to  beautiful yellows and oranges and reds. But while flowers still bloomed and the weather was still fine, Anora’s Mom suggested they go together on a special trip to the Botanic Gardens. Anora and her Mom both loved the Botanic Gardens. For as long as Anora could remember, she had been visiting the gardens with her family. Mom told Anora that before Anora was born and when she was till inside Mom’s tummy, Mom had visited the gardens and imagined teaching Anora about all the amazing plants when Anora was old enough. Today’s Meditation: Imagine floating on a cloud, and relax into the feeling of lightness.
