Overview
- 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.
