It is easy for today’s children - who from an early age are bombarded with computer and TV screens plus a whole range of modern stresses - to grow up without knowing how to relax, how to concentrate and how to use their full creative abilities. That’s why this book is so worthwhile. It contains a collection of 52 meditations and visualisations specially written for children, to help them explore their inner world. Ideal for calming down at bedtime, the theme of each meditation is also designed to help the child in daily life and to be able - whatever is going on in the outer world - to find a space of peace and freedom within.
