A title reads "TVO Kids presents."

In animation, the opening of the show rolls.

As the sun comes up between the mountains, colourful letters with different mood facial expressions form the name of the show. It reads "How do you feel?"

Akin is in his early teens, with slightly long braided brown hair and wears a light orange sweater and black pants.

Akin walks around a backyard with a wooden table, different objects, a basketball hoop and plants.

Thinking, he says HM. OH SORRY, I WAS PRETTY
LOCKED IN THERE.
I WAS TRYING TO REMEMBER
A MANTRA,
DO YOU KNOW WHAT A
MANTRA IS?
A MANTRA IS A POSITIVE
SENTENCE OR PHRASE
THAT YOU REPEAT TO YOURSELF
OVER AND OVER AGAIN
IF YOU'RE FEELING ANXIOUS
OR STRESSED.
THE ONLY PROBLEM IS, I HAVE A
HARD TIME
REMEMBERING MY MANTRAS.
OH WAIT A MINUTE!

He runs back to the house and comes back holding a small bowl with yarn and beads.

He says I TOTALLY FORGOT THAT A PAL OF
MINE TOLD ME ABOUT A FUN
AND ARTISTIC WAY TO
REMEMBER MY MANTRAS
A POSITIVE MANTRA BRACELET!
ALL YOU NEED ARE SOME BEADS, AND
SOMETHING TO PUT THE BEADS ON.
YOU COULD USE STRING, YARN
OR FISHING WIRE.
PERSONALLY, I'M GOING WITH
A PIPE CLEANERS
BECAUSE I LIKE THE SOFT FEELING
OF IT RUBBING AGAINST MY WRIST.
ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS MAKE
EVERY BEAD, INTO A MANTRA!
LET'S SEE...GREEN FOR 'EVERY DAY
IS A FRESH START'.

He threads a bead and says RED, FOR 'I LOVE MY DOG PATTY
AND SHE LOVES ME'.
YELLOW, FOR 'I CAN ONLY
COMPARE MYSELF, TO MYSELF.'
IF I MAKE A MISTAKE, I WILL
FORGIVE MYSELF.
MY FEELINGS ARE VALID. EVERY
SINGLE ONE OF THEM!
ALL DONE, TIME TO PUT IT ON!
NOW REMEMBER, YOU CAN HAVE AS
MANY BEADS AS YOU WANT.
IT'S YOUR MANTRA BRACELET.
NOW, WHEN LIFE GIVES ME LEMONS,
I CAN LOOK DOWN AT MY MANTRA
BRACELET, TOUCH THE BEADS,
AND REMEMBER POSITIVE
SELF TALK,
AND TURN THOSE LEMONS INTO
DELICIOUS LEMONADE!
TRY MAKING YOURSELF A POSITIVE
MANTRA BRACELET.
THE MANTRAS ARE YOURS AND
YOURS ALONE.
IT MIGHT JUST REMIND YOU THAT
YOU ARE ENOUGH!

Music plays as the end credits roll.
