The Tokoyamiverse 3

Meditation

Requested by Nimbles24

Meditation is a mind and body practice that has a long history of use for increasing calmness and physical relaxation, improving psychological balance, coping with illness, and enhancing overall health and well-being. Mind and body practices focus on the interactions among the brain, mind, body, and behaviour

This exercise with stated benefits was exactly what the students of 1A needed right now

some hesitant and concerned about it when the class seemed to have appeared out of no-where

but when rumours of other classes coming out feeling completely rejuvenated and relaxed to the point of falling asleep without a care in the world bounced around

it was only a matter of time before the class had signed up

and with just finishing a war, this was perfect timing

But when they walked into the room

they were surprised to see who had started this class to begin with

a very familiar raven head, sitting on a black mat, crossed-legged with a simple black t-shirt, shorts, barefoot and a skull-patterned bandana

"oh hey tokoyami, you're the one hosting this thing?" Shoji asked being the one to quickly shake off the shock

"Why yes, I believed that it would be a calming activity after our troubles with the villains and course work, and I wished to expand that to the others of our school" tokoyami explained three scents of incense

lavender, vanilla and ylang-ylang

"That's really manly of you" Kirishima complimented

"appreciated, now if you grab a mat and block we can get started" Tokoyami smiled as he urged the others to start

"Still think this is stupid" Bakugo grumbled as he watched the others do as the raven instructed

"taking time for yourself in a healthy method is not pointless, but I understand if you're not up to the challenge" Tokoymami noted with a dismissive shrug

"the hell you calling me a coward, give me that damm block" Bakugo yelled as he marched to the bird-headed boy, not taking his tone very well

the raven allowed the balancing block to be swiped from his palm, taking slight joy in seeing the blond being tricked so easily

and so when the blond sat down the session began to start

"ok, we will start with simply closing our eyes" Tokoyami began as the lights dimmed

"sitting straight on our block, try to focus the mind in a state of just being" Tokoyami continued calmly

"Once your mind has reached that plain, try to keep it there as we start some breathing exercises....in for 4 out for 5, in for 4, out for 5," the raven said as he too began to breathe in tone with his instructions

these instructions continued for a few more minutes until a familiar voice interrupted the raven's flow

"um, fumi" Darkshadow began

"yes?" Tokoyami asked as he tried to hide his annoyance, he didn't want this class to be interrupted

"I think you overdid it again" Darkshadow whispered back, placing a claw on his shoulder

the raven opened his eyes in confusion only to realise what his quirk meant

all his classmates were on the floor, slumped in one way on their mats dead asleep

"Why does this keep happening?" Tokoyami questioned with a sigh as he got up from his spot

"I dunno Mr smooth as caramel tongue" Darkshadow mocked with a chuckle

"don't call me that" Tokoyami muttered as he didn't like that nickname coming from his quirk

at least he had helped to calm their minds in one way
