Download or read book I Can Do Anything I Can Be Anything Mindfulness for Kids written by and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-02-24 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It can be stressful being a kid today. This interactive book invites children to colour, think, write and draw and let out their emotions that sometimes they don't want to bother their parents with. This encourages them to talk to their parents and express their emotions in healthy ways that help them to become healthy and balanced adults. It is all about what a person believes is POSSIBLE for them - It's NOT about where they have come from. It's where they are going! They are the future!It can be difficult for kids today. The modern world evolves at a faster pace every year.We WANT the very best for our kids, yet sometimes we don't realise what pressure society puts on them. They often hold in stress and anxiety, often not wanting to worry their parents, and we wrongly assume they are without stress at early ages. Scientific breakthroughs now show kids experience many 'adult' emotions from an early age. They often don't want to worry their parents so hold it all inside.As they grow and learn, their active minds act like sponges absorbing all information that comes their way. Often it is a source of amusement as they repeat pretty much everything they hear. This is part of their brain's development and helps in learning and retaining information. Often what we don't realise is that some of what is being learned and copied is damaging to their self worth and individual identity. It is SO important for these beautiful bright young souls to be able to express themselves fully. A study by leading British psychologists, has proven that many boys between the ages of 4 to 10 can only express anger, leading to aggressive behaviour, in later life. From early ages this is often expressed in war games, which are often encouraged. They are not, often, encouraged to release their fears and stresses by talking or writing down their feelings in a journal. Allowing them to talk about how they feel on a daily basis, helps release unhappiness and stress, allowing them time to grow, play, learn and be the best they can be, to become healthy and balanced adults.Many girls have been found to put excessive importance on looks over emotions in this age of the selfie. They too need a release for all that stress and anxiety.This book is aimed at children between 5 and 10 years old, to get them to interact, write, play, colour in, think and most importantly of all RELEASE all that is troubling them.It IS valuable time away from the mobile/cell phone, iPad, laptop, computer or latest gadget.Please buy this little book for them to interact with. It has been made with love for all the Worlds' children who ARE the future of our WORLD!

Download or read book My Two Feet on the Ground written by Leanne Costello and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2020-06-08 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leanne has long been interested in the power of meditation and has studied Reiki and crystal healing. Late in 2017, Leanne awoke one night reciting the first few lines of this book and knew instantly they needed to be built on and shared with the world. Using random scenarios from the average child’s school year, the rhymes inside contain subtle and uplifting messages for young and old on mindfulness, and provide encouragement, food for thought and basic tools on how to stay positive, present and grounded. Mindful.org describes mindfulness as being the basic human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing and not being overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us. Add to that self-belief, peace and positivity and we could be living in a more harmonious society. That is all wonderful, but where do you start? Being aware of what you are experiencing inside and out is a good place, and Leanne hopes her little book develops in its readers a sense of optimism and connectedness in their daily lives, as well as comfort.
