Start your journey across the monkey bars. Feel the bar in your hand and tighten your grip as hard as you can. Feel the tension and the pain. Then, release the bar and feel the relief from the lack of tension. Do this 4-5 times.
Think of something positive or that makes you happy every time you move to a new rung on the monkey bar. See how many positive and happy thoughts you can come up with as you slowly swing your way across the bars.
