The most impactdul, conscientious stories for both children and parents. Very interactive, powerful energy healing for both, powerful lessons and outcomes guided. Great tools for both children and PARENTS. Easy read and easy to follow. I love the beginning of coming back into the breath ✨️ and the little exercise at the end to summarize your journey together. ✨️ these are the teachings that should be apart of every school system. These are the tools needed for our families, society and expands outward too. Wow imagine a school system around the planet that has this as their daily curriculum, teaching them about energy exchange, and tapping into the energy field of your heart, soul and connecting with all things in this manner. I bought these for my granddaughter and we sat with my daughter and neice and we read over 7 books in one sitting and at my granddaughters will. My daughter is giftingba set to the school in hopes they will integrate these precious expansive stories in their curriculum. The artwork is incredible truly merging with science and spirituality no religious undertones, pure consciousness throughout. I ❤️ what the other cocreated and many more 🙏🏽. Thank you for sharing your wisdom tapped in and sharing it with the world. . All of the books are extremely impactful so I don't have a favorite. Truly the best gift for children and the person that reads them the story, know that the reader is receiving more than could imagine, especially if they are working through their own emotions, lessons or hardships. Breathe and RECEIVE ❤️

My Daycare Children Love them ALL
If you haven’t already ordered, I recommend starting with The Hug Who Got Stuck. This was the book that lead to my 10 book purchase! These books are amazing! They keep the children intrigued and excited. They look forward to the end of each book to do the exercises and they really loved getting a sticker too! I have recommended these books to all of the providers I work with (I’m a licensed in-home provider for military children). These books are great for all children and even adults!

My 4 year old is obsessed 🙌
So glad to have found this series of books for my little one. These books echo how we feel about the world. This one tells the story of what it means to be human-we are born with a bright light that slowly dims as the heavy clouds of everyday life in our society begin to cocoon around us. After trying all the "mainstream" things to bring his light back, they finally realize a holistic approach is needed. What a fantastic way to teach children that we are more than our body parts-we are bright, brilliant, complex beings who need nurturing and support to thrive. Seriously, my son sleeps with this book now and clearly identifies with the character. I almost want to give away all his mainstream books now and just start building a Conscious Stories library for him. In this age of information overload, selecting the right media for my kids is so important. If you are a crunchy mama, spiritual in any way, if you honor your child's individual soul journey, or are just striving to teach your kids wakefulness, these are such a blessing.🧡🧡🧡
p.s there is a great little bonus breathing exercise at the beginning of each book that we have been doing throughout the day that really calms and centers my son. He has some ADHD behaviors so this is huge for him. he's even been trying to meditate on his own🧘♂️
... while fostering deeper connection with your children.
