“Footprints of Mindfulness on the Soft Earth” follows Livian on a transformative journey through a peaceful, softly wooded forest. Along the way, she discovers the power of mindfulness through various lessons inspired by nature. Each chapter explores a different mindfulness practice—like earth walking meditation, focusing on the senses, and grounding techniques—that children can use to become more aware of their emotions, calm their minds, and navigate their feelings with resilience and empathy.
The book’s gentle, nature-inspired approach encourages children aged 5 to 10 to become more self-aware, develop confidence, and learn the importance of being present in each moment. From listening to the hum of insects to observing the patterns of the trees, Livian’s journey teaches children the value of mindfulness in all aspects of life. Through clear, simple exercises, young readers are guided to understand their emotions and develop tools for emotional wellness. With a focus on emotional resilience, empathy, and personal growth, this book is an essential tool for fostering mindfulness in young minds.
