Finally! A mindful resource for our little loved ones
Our community understands the powerful impact mindfulness can have in our lives.
However, passing this wisdom to the next generation can feel challenging. There are few resources that teach children about how their minds work or how mindfulness, breathing, and emotional intelligence can support them as they grow and explore the world.
That's where My Brain Books comes in. This beautiful, 4-part picture book series is designed for children ages 5-10, offering engaging lessons on their brains, minds, and hearts.
Each book introduces a new concept, along with practical tips, exercises, and tools to help young readers deepen their understanding.
