Mindful Me: Mindfulness and Meditation for Kids by Whitney Stewart

5.0

I cannot sing the praises of this book enough. This book would be helpful to a lot of children I know as well as adults. I like that it includes self-care as a topic. The explanation of what emotions look like physically is very important, it helps a child/young adult understand not just know what they’re feeling but what others are feeling as well. This is important later on in adult life, when you are in many different types of situations. Knowing and understanding what you and others are feeling and how to deal with those feelings is huge advantage. The illustrations are very cute and cartoony and work well with the language of the book. The examples of mindfulness exercises and how they are explained is dead on. They are easy to understand, not overwhelming for even younger children, and accessible to adults as well. Overall, I think this book is a great tool for anyone’s “how to deal with life” toolbox.
