A series of guided meditations to help kids find beauty within, increase confidence, recognise the power of positive thoughts and develop respect for others. Julie Pappas has used all of her teaching experience and wisdom to offer you this gift for your children. It may be the most important thing that you ever do for them... and they will love it! "When my children were very little I used to give them a meditation experience through a bedtime story where they visualised a walk through a forest to find a treasure chest. In the chest they found a bright and sparkling jewel, only to discover that it was their own beautiful self. My children are now grown-up and not interested in meditation. They are different, however. The practice of 'going within' when they were 4-7 years old has given them access to a place of strength and power that they use at times of need. If they ever take up meditation again it will be easy and natural because it has already been instilled. These wonderful meditation commentaries can do this for your child. Use them directly or learn to develop your own bedtime stories from them. Teach your children the skill of meditation. It will protect their minds through inner self-esteem, giving them the power to hold onto their sense of self.
