These are great strategies to get the brain on board and linked up for whatever activity is in store and also to teach children some powerful and easy tools for helping their nervous systems to regulate! I also love that there is now a book to recommend to teachers to read and implement in their classrooms! When things like this are written in a book it seems more “real” and powerful for kids to follow. Heidi McLarty, OT Reg. (Ont.). Occupational Therapist Owner – Superior Therapy Connections, Ontario
Finally, a book written to validate and ameliorate symptoms of anxiety that show in everyday life! Written for school-aged kids, this book can help with challenges involving anxiety and sensory integration. As a therapist in the body psychology world, I am often looking for resources that are accessible, effective and organic as many children with anxiety are used to hearing prescriptive advice from adults. Folding fun, easy movements and how they help into a story is a phenomenal resource as it allows parents and clinicians to take a backseat as kids make sense of what they can do to help themselves, by themselves.

Maxine creates a simple, do-able process that young children can easily understand in order to calm their nervous systems and prevent meltdowns. I have been using this process with my daughter, who is seven, with great results. One time through the routine in the morning helps her get started on track and keeps her from having meltdowns. The easy-to-follow instructions in here will help you connect with your kids and teach them (and you!) a great way to calm the body when things are getting stressful. However, I really recommend doing these every morning as a routine, before the stress even hits. Then they know what to do and how to do it before it gets hard during the day. I cannot recommend this book and process enough!
