There was a dog on the beach.

A curious, tiny alien in his tiny ship is flying along the long space road, searching for a brand-new home. He sees a rocket flying around and wonders where it's going to go. The tiny curious, tiny alien follows the rocket and wonders what he will find.




The rocket he followed led him to a bright blue circle. The tiny alien wonders what could be on it. He gets a great idea. This could be his brand new home and chooses to end his flight.





The tiny alien finds an odd man in the sand. So he asked the odd man what he was doing in the sand. "Are you sleeping? Are you sitting?" asked the tiny alien. "No, I am not sleeping or sitting" said the man, "I am meditating." said the odd man. But the tiny alien did not understand. The tiny alien was confused and wanted some help.






The man said that he was a Buddhist, it was his practice. But the tiny alien still did not get it. The man told the tiny alien that meditating is like watching bubbles pop. You don't chase after any bubble or try to catch it. Instead, you just watch them pop and float away. This helps your mind feel calm because you're not having lots of thoughts. (“How Buddhist Meditation Can Help You Live More Mindfully”)



The tiny alien was glad he met the odd man, and flew away to a new land. He learned about odd man, who was a Buddhist and sat in the sand. He practiced meditation to rest his mind. Now the tiny alien finally understood, the odd man in the stand was really cool. He flies off in his tiny ship to find something new that could peak his interest.



As the tiny alien flies through the skies. He spots something with his three eyes. The tiny alien spots a lady, pulling her leg high over her head. Curious to see what the lady is doing, the tiny alien lands and stops it's viewing.





"Greetings!" said the tiny alien, "what are you doing?" The strange woman in a strange pose said she was doing yoga. But the tiny alien did not know what that was. So the tiny alien asked, "is that like meditating." The strange lady stated nicely, "No, I am Hindu and I practice yoga." But the tiny alien was did not understand. "But why?" asked the alien, who was so curious.





The lady explained, "Doing yoga poses is like stretching and playing pretend. When you hold these special positions, it's like you're pretending to be a tree or a cat. This helps your body become more bendy and strong. And guess what? It can even make you feel happier!" (Google Arts & Culture)
