What it is

The first episode of Sesame Street's Monster Meditation web series, made with Headspace, was released on 15 April 2020. Mr. Andy of Headspace leads Cookie Monster through a short meditation to build patience. The episode was later adapted into the book Being Patient with Cookie Monster.
