Main description:

The books in this set centre around the mindfulness practice of being with emotions and experiences - allowing them to be - as opposed to teaching strategies to manage or fix them.

Beginning 2020, all pupils in primary school will be taught about the importance of mental wellbeing. This resource provides the perfect starting place for these conversations.

No training or understanding of psychology is needed to use the books. They are uncomplicated, relying on the simplicity of listening and open-ended creativity.
