[bright music] - Oh, giraffe should go here.

But then they cover up the dolphins.

What a mess!

And I'm almost out of elephants for the elephant herd.

[Mina groans] Oh, I'm never gonna finish it in time.

- Hey, Mina, wanna see my plant poster?

I finished it last night.

- Nice.

- Oh, did you not finish your animal poster?

Science club starts soon.

- I know, but the stickers are all wrong.

How can a rat be bigger than a giraffe?

[groans] - Calcium?

[tense music] Oh, sounds like you might need to ground it down.

- Ground it down?

- Oh yes.

My grandma taught me about ground it down.

When I have too many things swirling in my head and my mind starts racing, I need to settle those heavy feelings so I can feel my best self.

It only takes a minute, and I think it could help.

- I guess I could try it.

- Excellent, it's all about pushing your feet into the ground.

Like the flowers on my poster taking root.

See?

Step one is to stand very, still like a tree.

- Ah, I don't think I can hold this very long, what's next?

- Ground those feet down.

Feel the bottoms of your feet becoming really strong, like you have roots growing into the ground.

- Okay, here goes.

- Now squeeze your body from your feet all the way up to your head.

Like how a plant gets water from the strong roots all the way to the top of the flower.

Squeeze your ankles, your calves, your knees, your thighs, your belly, and up and up until you're squeezing every part of your body.

[Mina gasps] - Then what?

- Keep squeezing and count to five.

- One, two, three, four, five.

- [sighs] Now let go of the squeeze and let it all flow back into the ground.

[Mina grunts] Oh, let it go, Mina.

- Wow.

Oh, I can ground it down.

After I let go of that squeeze, I feel so much better.

You know, I think I can go focus on my project again.

- That's wonderful, Mina.

You can try grounding it down too.

Just squeeze those feet or your hands or your belly, like we did.

Keep squeezing all the parts really hard, count to five, and then let the squeeze go back into the ground.

Let it all out with a big [sighs], to feel your best self.

- Aha, I did it!

They all fit.

And there's just enough room for, now where was that last baby elephant?

Thank you, CJ.

The herd is complete.

It's done.

- Oh, it looks wonderful, Mina.

- Thanks, I especially like these cute elephants.

[Mina trumpets] - [laughs] I like the dolphins.

[CJ imitating dolphins] [Mina and CJ laughing]
