Bedtime Stories For Kids Vol .2: A Collection of Over 25 Short Meditation Stories to Reduce Anxiety, Learn Mindfulness, Increase Relaxation, and Help Children Fall to Sleep Fast (Ages 2-12)

You've tried singing lullabies until your throat hurt. You've tried literally boring them to sleep. You've tried fancy sleep rituals that start at sunset and end somewhere around midnight. They want to go pee five times in a row and then they want a drink. They suddenly want to talk about an awkward situation that happened a month ago. Or, if they're younger, they just scream at you until you give up. Your children would get all the sleep they need (and they need a lot). You would finally have time to cuddle with your partner and eat those chocolates that you've been hiding from the kids. YOU would get more sleep, too. The truth is that children's brains are actively growing and developing, and the mechanisms that help them relax after intense stimulation aren't perfect yet - that's why bedtime is such a struggle. Fortunately, science has a simple and elegant solution to the problem: Mindfulness can help whenever there's a monster under the bed, icky broccoli on the plate, a stressful event at school, a boring wait at the doctor's office... and whenever it's bedtime! Mindfulness reduces anxiety, improves sleep, boosts mood, and helps cope with otherwise overwhelming situations. A short mindfulness meditation can be more effective than all the lullabies and bedtime rituals you've ever known! You might think that mindfulness is just a trendy buzzword. However, that can instantly turn a frustrated, anxious, or overstimulated kid into a happy and relaxed one! This spell works on parents, too. Learn a few mindfulness tricks and you'll never lose your temper again! If you think it sounds too good to be true, remember that mindfulness is a scientifically proven concept that's been carefully researched. Why buy this book if you can find mindfulness meditations on YouTube? The stories in the book are uniquely tailored to children's psychological needs and learning style. Besides, bedtime reading is an amazing opportunity to cherish the deep emotional bonds between you and your little ones! So don't hesitate.
