Learn how to overcome fear, conquer your anxiety, and build self-confidence when you are trying something new with this karate yoga story,
Katie's Karate Class
!
In this kids anxiety book, join Katie on the way to her first karate class. She feels self-conscious about starting something new and meeting new people. Katie's brother demonstrates the yoga principle by encouraging Katie to change her negative thoughts of karate by thinking of something completely opposite, like being happy in yoga. Though technology has brought the global community closer together, it seems to have somehow given children more fears. They see and hear more than ever before-and the content isn't always developmentally appropriate. Also, some children just tend to have a harder time starting something new. This sense of fear and anxiety can trickle into all aspects of their lives. For some kids, that fear is debilitating. Hopefully, this "thinking the opposite" strategy can become a part of your coping therapy toolkit, as one more way to reduce your child's fear and anxiety in order to find calm and peace in a busy, sometimes-uncertain world. This kids yoga book can be added to your preschool learning activities, mindful moments, play therapy story time, calm down corner, collection of social emotional books for kids, emotional regulation books for kids, as an anxiety relief tool, part of your brain breaks in the classroom, circle time, counseling sessions, social emotional learning activities, self regulation strategies, mommy me yoga, preschool yoga exercises, or kindergarten yoga breaks. This beautifully illustrated children's book about emotions, self confidence, and self esteem is aimed at 4 to 7 year olds (preschoolers, PreK, kindergarten, 1st grade, and 2nd grade). Parents and caregivers can also read this children's yoga and wellness book at home during transition times, after school, or at bedtime. Yoga and mindfulness books for kids are suitable for children of all abilities, including children with autism, ADHD, anxiety, depression, anger management issues, or other additional needs.
