New Children's Book Delivers Stress Relief for the Whole Family.

Oct. 22, 2012 - PRLog -- Remember when you were a kid? Life was simpler, easy - and now it's all about the stress: Work, exercise, home, meals, oh yes and time and mindset for your own relationships. Kids have it easy right? The truth is kids have stress too - their lives are not always as free from stress as adults might think.

“Children are human beings, so whatever stresses you out is likely to stress them out too,” says Peter Wilson, director of Young Minds – a children’s mental health charity in the UK. “Unlike adults, children are not emotionally and mentally developed enough to cope with these pressures.” So in a sense, they need stress coping strategies even more than adults.

“Stress that is prolonged and managed poorly can result in negative physical, mental, and cognitive outcomes for children and youth.”
Steinberg, L. (2005). Adolescence (7th ed.). New York, NY: McGraw-Hill.

When Linda Tenenbaum’s grandson was 2, she observed him imitating and enjoying her practicing Tai Chi. This inspired her to create a simplified version of moving meditation (Tai Chi Qigong) suitable for young children to enjoy with their significant adults.

As a Tai Chi and Qigong teacher for the past 20 years Linda has created an illustrated children's book with links to free online videos that the whole family can do together.
Parents, Grandparents, Teachers, Caregivers – all ages can get involved with this fun interactive children's book: Breathe: Tai Chi Qigong for Children.
It is available as an immediate downloadable PDF eBook with live links to the videos. http://www.followmetaichi.com/breathe.html
