Book
The magic of meditation : stories and practices to develop gratitude and empathy with your child / Marie-Christine Champeaux-Cunin and Dominique Butet ; translated by Sherab Chödzin Kohn ; foreword by Matthieu Ricard.
"This mindfulness meditation primer is really two books in one. The first is a guide for parents to the basics and benefits of meditation for children in terms of health, managing emotions, and promoting success in school. The second is a concise practice program for children, featuring Yupsi, the magical dragon. The tales of Yupsi, which are infused with a sense of adventure as well as compassion and empathy, provide a fun and engaging entree to the practice"-- Provided by publisher.
