Breathe With Me: Using Breath to Look After my Tinana, Hinengaro, and Wairua
 
Themed around the Te Ao Maori principles on Nga Atua, gratitude, nature and mindfulness.
 
A fantastic book to read with your young learners to start the day, especially for a morning mat time routine to get everyone to pay attention and a great start to the day.
 
Included in the book are simple meditative breathing exercises for children to use at home, school or anywhere. 
 
It encourages the use of Māori stories (Pūrākau) aligned to Te Ao Māori principles to engage and connect with children to help them calm their breath while experiencing different feelings/emotions throughout the day. 
Your breath is a taonga (treasured gift and tool) that you can use anytime to calm you.
Breathing is easy to do and can help relax your mind, body and spirit.
You can be on your way to a happy day.

A great addition and a MUST for your resource collection for your morning, afternoon or evening meditative quiet time routine.
