Teach your child a simple routine which will empower and enable them to self-regulate and take control of their health and wellbeing. The routine of yoga postures, originating from a Japanese sequence called 'Makko-Ho' and acupressure points taught in this book are simple, yet powerful. Connecting the child to the energies of Eastern medicine and philosophy, which govern our body-mind connection. The theory is interwoven through an engaging story of a dragon called Mak, who wakes up feeling a little grumpy and stiff. He knows what to do to feel a bit 'sparkly' and sets off on an adventure through the Five Elements, stretching his meridians and seeking out the things that make him feel happy.
Mak the Dragon highlights the importance of movement, friendship, reflection and expression in maintaining good mental, emotional and physical health. Children are instructed how to perform the stretches that Mak is doing and invited to assess the before and after effects, with reflective worksheets and mindful prompts which encourage children to draw and write about their feelings.
Written for children aged 5-8, this story and guide is ideal for use at home, in schools, and in community groups. Before a good night's sleep, to shake off the stress of the school run or simply for the fun of it. Wonderful support for all children and grown-ups who wish to offer their child a tool for self-regulation, and open conversations around emotional, mental and physical health. Extra beneficial to children with anxiety and low self-esteem.
