Week 4 · Hello, Sikhi · Day 4
Waheguru & Naam Japna
Naam Japna means lovingly remembering Waheguru. It’s the second of the three pillars, and it’s something you can do anywhere — in the car, on a walk, before sleep.
Today's idea

Talk together
Ask: "How does your body feel when your mind is quiet?"
Younger kids: one minute is plenty. Older kids: try it again at bedtime.
