Slow and Steady Helps Tia Get Ready by Mind Body Align

"As she flies around the labyrinth, the voice in her head continues reminding her about all the things she needs to get done. It starts telling her that she'll never have time to finish everything and that she can't do it."

Tia's to-do list is very long. She has to coach the caterpillar soccer team, help plan a charity race, do her homework, and more! As she zips and zooms around the labyrinth, she can't help but feel overwhelmed by everything she must get done. Instead of being kind to her, her brain starts telling her that she'll never be able do everything on her list! Just as her worries reach their peak, she runs into her friend Tree, who teaches her about WIND. When Tree gets overwhelmed, he uses the WIND method to help him calm down. Tia has to use Tree's advice to help relax her racing mind.

Sometimes, your mind gets the best of you and tells you that you aren't good enough. With Tree's WIND method, just like Tia, children can use this mindfulness-based social emotional learning skill to center their minds, take some deep breaths, and be kind to themselves. Slow and Steady Helps Tia Get Ready uses discussion questions and new mindfulness techniques as it continues this inspiring series for young readers.
