Jenna Bush Hager discussed her bedtime routine with her three children on the Feb. 4 episode of TODAY With Jenna & Friends. She revealed that she whispers secret mantras to each child every night to instill feelings of love and positivity. For example, one mantra for her daughter Poppy is about being loved, which Jenna later recognized was inspired by a book. The conversation also touched on the importance of affirmations and remembering positive encounters with strangers, highlighting the impact of kindness in everyday life.
'For Poppy, it is, 'You were loved. You were loved. You were loved, they all say.' And I thought I made it up, but then I realized I got it from a book,' Jenna laughed.
'That's great. Affirmations are so important and powerful, and I feel like we can sometimes think they're corny, but I'm like, I think we need to hear those things and be reminded of those things.'
'One time a stranger in a coffee shop asked me with intense eye contact, 'How is your day going?' And I was like ... this was such a nice interaction.'
'One time a man shared his umbrella with me and it was pouring rain and he was like, 'Here, you have it.' And I was like, what?! This is the nicest thing anybody has ever done.'
