Description
What if children could learn to understand their emotions, trust their inner wisdom and face life’s challenges with greater confidence?
Discover Connected: Discovering Your Inner Guides, an inspiring and practical guide to emotional wellbeing, mindfulness and self-discovery by Dr. Seema Desai, beautifully illustrated by James Ballance.
Growing up can bring many emotions, challenges and unexpected situations. Learning how to recognise, understand and respond to those feelings is an important life skill, yet one that children are not always taught.
Connected offers young readers a fresh and accessible way to explore their inner world, helping them understand that they already possess valuable qualities and strengths to guide them through life’s ups and downs.
Through engaging explanations, thought-provoking questions and practical activities, children are introduced to their Inner Guides, including Curiosity, Creativity, Empathy, Hope, Balance and Strength.
The book encourages readers to recognise their emotions, develop self-awareness and use simple techniques to approach difficult situations with greater calm, confidence and understanding.
Readers will discover ways to:
Recognise and better understand their emotions
Develop empathy, kindness and compassion for themselves and others
Explore mindfulness, meditation and reflective practices
Build confidence and emotional resilience
Connect with their inner strengths and positive qualities
Approach challenges with curiosity, creativity and a fresh perspective
Written in accessible, engaging language, Connected combines practical guidance with illustrations and opportunities for reflection, making important emotional wellbeing concepts easier for children to understand and apply.
Perfect for:
Children developing emotional awareness and self-confidence
Parents and carers supporting children’s emotional development
Teachers introducing emotional literacy and wellbeing
Schools exploring PSHE, mindfulness and social-emotional learning
Families looking for practical ways to improve communication and understanding
Readers of all ages interested in personal growth and emotional wellbeing
Unlike traditional children’s storybooks, Connected provides a practical toolkit that can be revisited whenever children face difficult emotions or challenging situations.
An uplifting and accessible resource that encourages children to become more empathetic, confident and thoughtful individuals, helping them build a stronger connection with themselves and the world around them.
