About this listen
Following the international success of ‘Calm Kids,’ published author and intuitive meditation teacher Lorraine E Murray offers a practical, enlightening, and creative guide for professionals, educators, and parents/carers.
It guides you through a range of practical and mindful activities to reduce anxiety and stress in young people - particularly those experiencing SEN/Autism/ADHD.
The book will provide you with the inspiration that embraces meditation and mindful and intuitive methods to help with self-regulation and relaxation:
- understand how meditation can support brain development, emotional intelligence, and improved learning
- learn how to adapt meditation styles and practices to accommodate children experiencing SEN
- support self-soothing and regulation skills to help children reduce anxiety and stress
- learn how to use meditation and mindful practices to support creative solutions to reduce challenging behaviours
- read about real-life pilot studies illustrating the experiences of families and professionals who trialled these methods.
- explore information to worldwide research that supports the use of meditation for health and well-being
- develop a range of intuitive, mindful, problem-solving methods for the whole family
- understand how to connect the mind, body, and energy of these practices with SEN responses
Lorraine E. Murray is the founder of Connected Kids, a worldwide certified, award-winning training program that produces expert meditation teachers for children and teens (with/without SEN or trauma) - in operation since 2003.
She is also the author of 'Calm Kids' (non-fiction) and 'Robbie and Jess: for anxious children... with hidden superpowers" (fiction - for children with trauma/anxiety)
She has taught thousands of people how to bring meditation into family or professional lives with young people, has practised meditation personally for over 30 years, is a foster parent and a qualified healer and intuitive expert. She is a teacher on Insight Timer, a podcaster, and a blogger.
"This book truly is wonderful for the general population, but Lorraine’s detailed work on challenges that people with autism face and several specific balancing mindful activities make this the best book I have read for helping kids feel their best. For children who struggle with food, she suggests practicing a gratitude meditation before eating where the caregiver and child explore the journey of the food to the plate (imagine the food growing as a plant and thanking sun, soil, and water, as well as the farmer who cared for it, etc.) Kids become less afraid of unfamiliar foods and textures as they think about the effort involved for the food from a seed in the ground to their plates – I’ve seen this work in my own home!”
"We have found the skills our pupils have learned through the Connected Kids approach to be a useful, possibly vital, life tool for now and in the future. In an increasingly complex and stressful world. We have made them an essential part of our curriculum by integrating short mindfulness sessions throughout the day and whenever pupils need to use them. Our pupils have severe learning difficulties, many also with autism, and yet the ideas can be adapted quite easily to each individual’s needs."
