Empower young children and adults to celebrate the small moments that bring joy to their everyday lives through simple mindfulness activities. My Heart Is Filled When is a beautiful story that will help children see and feel their world is full of wonders when they are connected to all the wonderful things around them-whether it's riding a bike, splashing in the waves, digging and touching dirt in the garden, or scoring a goal in sports.
This story gently reminds adults to slow down and reconnect to life's simple pleasures, just like they once did in their childhood. Cozy up with your child at bedtime; educators can use Lily's journey to spark conversations about gratitude, mindfulness, and embracing beauty in everyday small adventures. This heartfelt story encourages readers of all ages to pause, explore, and cherish the little things that make life unique and help create positive childhood memories.
"Inspired by my own journey, I found my connections of happiness in these little moments-planting and taking care of my garden, cooking for my family, exploring nature, creating art, and moving my body-all of which helped strengthen my emotional well-being. In today's fast-paced world, this book reminds us that true happiness comes from our connections, activities that bring us joy, and the mindfulness we embrace daily."
