“Sometimes I find my Mind”
“Parfois Mes Pensées Vagabondent”
“Sometimes I find my mind” is a mindfulness book written for children that takes us on a journey through a child’s overactive and unruly mind. We then bare witness to the mindfulness tools they use to find a sense of inner calm.
Parfois, Mes Pensées vagabondes” est un livre sur la pleine conscience écrit pour les enfants. L’autrice nous emmène dans un voyage à travers l’esprit hyperactif et indiscipliné d’un enfant. Nous sommes ensuite témoins des outils de pleine conscience utilisé pour trouver le calme intérieur.
How this book came into being:
Liam Volke from the west coast and Ashley Thackaberry from Ontario are two meditators who were brought together by a mutual friend, fate, and a touch of magic. They collaborated from afar to bring this book into being during the spring of 2020.

I sometimes catch my mind tumbling down an extra-dimensional wormhole! Here’s where it meets grumbling gargoyles and terrible, trumpeting trolls. Honestly, sometimes my mind feels simply out of control.
