Nature Flow: Book 1

Award-Winning Children's Wellbeing Book – Purple Dragonfly & Page Turner Book Awards

Infused with beautiful artwork and poetry, Nature Flow takes you on a journey of mindful movement through nature! With simple, easy-to-follow guidance and gentle cues, Nature Flow invites you to discover the ancient arts of mindfulness, yoga and qigong and learn practices that foster wellbeing and a sense of connectedness to nature.

Flowing with beautiful illustrations that spark the imagination and charming poetry to delight the senses, Nature Flow is a nourishing practice that can bring calm and joy into each day. These easy-simple practices connect breath, body and our mind - helping children learn how to develop their self-awareness, care for their wellbeing, and connect to their inner world and the world around them. This is a nature-filled book for children of all ages, parents, educators, and communities - a resource that can begin a lifelong journey of wellbeing. It fosters concentration, focus, and attention, offering children life-long tools to support their emotional regulation and mental wellbeing.

In the classroom, Nature Flow can be used in short bursts - just like our Mind Fresh Moments teacher training guides - to create moments of calm, reset, and embodied awareness throughout the day. It complements existing wellbeing initiatives and is ideal for mental health and wellbeing leads, teachers, and anyone looking to offer children grounding, movement-based practices that support self-regulation and resilience in a classroom-friendly format. Practice anytime, anywhere: as part of the morning routine, during a school day, at bedtime, or as a mindful movement & nature-filled activity.

Reviews:

Mimi Kuo Deemer - Author of Qigong and the Tai Chi Axis: Nourishing Practices for Body, Mind and Spirit

“Nature Flow takes its readers on a gentle journey of body, mind and spirit. With each beautifully illustrated page, young readers are invited to explore nature through simple qigong exercises such as separating clouds, embracing trees, flying like wild geese, or shaking like a wild horse. These intention-led practices can awaken their imaginations, allowing them to root into the gardens and forests of their bodies, or soar high into the spirit of their skies. Using mindful instructions and easy-to-follow movements, Nature Flow will introduce ways to energies and rebalance children in compassionate, grounding ways.”

“...I want to get one for every single classroom. In my school, we have calming corners in every class where students can take a breather and reflect. They’re utilized at the child's choice and they have resources and tools to help them self-regulate and THIS book is perfect for that. It is inspiring and equips children with skills that will help them for the rest of their lives."

"It is so beautiful... I can't wait to use this with my kids in the classroom"
