Making a BIG SPLASH!


Our newest title recently launched and it's making a BIG SPLASH! 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reviews are coming in!!

This is what Leigh Ann had to say,

"This is my first time reading a yoga story, and I couldn't have started with a better one. Revolving around Hawaiian culture, this story tells us of two brothers who save a shark, but then break a rule within their village. Their father seeks help with their punishment via the Shark God, and not to ruin it, but it does have a happy ending.
The book starts with a quote from the Dalai Lama, followed by a letter to parents, and then leads into some quick instruction on the Hawaiian language. The story begins, and with some beautiful illustrations throughout, takes us on a wonderful Hawaiian journey. Not finished yet, the book then leads us through Loving-Kindness Compassion Meditation and ends with 4 pages of yoga poses that coincide with the story.
I love everything about this book. It is packed, cover to cover, with so much, and I am here for it. I can't wait to get a physical copy of it in my hands to share with my family."

Mel and I took a trip to Hawaii several years back, we were both captivated and enthralled by the magnificence. We gave a yogic twist to this terrific tale in honor of the people and customs of the islands and feedback like this is more than a little heartwarming!!

This Yoga Storytelling Adventure takes us on a captivating journey to Hawaii, where two boys free a shark struggling in the sand. In celebration the boys beat the High Chief's drum, which is kapu, forbidden. What will happen now?

In this timeless tale, courage, perseverance, and compassion are exemplified. Although intended for ages 4 to 8, SHARK LOVERS and kids of all ages will be enthralled. 

Included is a Hawaiian word guide to help develop an appreciation of a different language, and best of all, a full description of yoga poses make the story come alive as you go on A Yoga Storytelling Adventure!

We'd love to hear from you too! Grab your FREE eBook June 9 and 10, and kindly leave a review when you have a moment. One or two sentences will do!

Mental Health Awareness

 


May is mental health awareness month, and we are passionate about story and yoga’s ability to promote not only literacy but also health and well-being.

Yoga is a skill that will support your kids for life. If you have never practiced yoga, now is the perfect time to give it a try. You and your kids will benefit. Sharing story and yoga with your kids will build a bond that you will be ever so grateful for.

Our stories offer social emotional learning skills, mindful movement and imaginative play! Parents and kids play and have fun together as well as learn to be still and quiet.

Listening to wisdom stories, practicing yoga, simple breathing exercises and easy meditations are all beneficial habits that will last a lifetime. They support happiness, health, and relationships!

Children are natural yogis; most kids are flexible and willing to try new things. Let it be fun and something that feels good for both of you. Yoga is non-competitive, anyone can practice.  

Yoga is different than other forms of exercise. Strength, flexibility, and balance are developed as are body, mind, and emotions. Research has found that yoga supports mental health issues like anxiety and depression, even ADHD.

Yoga helps children become calm, confident, and compassionate. In a noisy and chaotic world, yoga helps focus the mind, body, and emotions. Create a space where you can practice together without judgement or expectation.

Learning how to relax, breathe, and release tension is a life skill we all need, they help us to deal with life situations. We all know that mental health is just as important as physical health!

Celebrate Mental Health month and grab the eBook, Peace and Quiet, for FREE May 23 and 24.

Spring into Homeschooling!

Homeschooling or considering homeschooling?

We are thrilled to announce Mel’s upcoming podcast interview with Bex Buzzie on The Homeschool Advantage.


Listen here https://realedtalk.podbean.com/   

If you homeschool or are considering homeschooling you won’t want to miss this.

Bex Buzzie is a teacher, coach and educational course content creator from San Diego, California. She connects homeschoolers to vendors, curriculum content creators, coops and more. The Homeschool Advantage is here to give you the leg up in a world that is slightly upside down.

For several decades now there has been a huge exodus from the public school system and it will probably continue. Tons of resources are available, and parents may feel overwhelmed as they research suppliers.

The Homeschool Advantage works as a liaison. Parents can connect with the creator of content and see if what they offer resonates with them. A win-win!

We know parents as educators are innovators themselves and are continuously looking to expand their curriculums. We hope we can help them to fulfill their mission with a fun way to incorporate social emotional learning, mindful movement, and imaginative play into the homeschool classroom with A Yoga Storytelling Adventure.

Parents and teachers are discovering ways to use story and yoga creatively in the classroom with our FREE 10 page Resource Guide filled with tips.

All 3 eBooks will be FREE for this promo March 2 and 3
