My name is Oona. I am 7 years old.

I will be in 2nd grade at my school in Knoxville, TN this fall. I like to meditate. I have been meditating for one year. I learned how to meditate in a temple with my friends from Burma.

I like to meditate because it calms me down. Meditation is also yoga. Meditation could be anything, like gardening, as long as you concentrate.

I can meditate for five minutes.
