From the Publisher

Empower with foundational life skills

Teach your littles (and remind yourself) about the importance of self-care and mental health!

Join Alana and her faithful sidekick, GuRoo, as they explore how to navigate life when feelings are BIG. During this adventure, we learn alongside Alana as we connect to our breath, slow down, and understand that feelings come and go. The most important lesson is that we can work through all feelings!

Meditation is a valuable tool to utilize at any age. How are you feeling?

(sample page text) My mind suddenly feels more clear. I let go of worries, I let go of fear.

See inside!

Every page is filled with beautifully rhythmic text, lively colors and emotions showcased in the characters to keep children engaged!

GuRoo with a heart

Made with Intention

Every page, word, image, color... everything was created with intention by both the Author and the Illustrator. We truly hope this book brings peace and love into your mind and heart!

Alana with BIG feelings

Everyone Experiences Hard Feelings

In today's world, there are a lot of stressors and anxiety. The trick is to learn that we all can have agency over our feelings if we have the right tools. Thanks to GuRoo, Alana now can! How about you?

...and more!

PLUS Interactive Components!

Space is included at the end of the story for processing feelings plus a link to the Author's YouTube channel where you can practice what you have learned during a meditative sound bath!

    From someone who comes from the education field, and with this ever changing world, I love this simple yet wonderful book to introduce our littler ones to self care and mindfulness. It is important for children to learn great tools early on to help themselves control their feelings, bc we all know it’s much easier said than done, and too often we learn these things too late! I hope Alana and Roo go on many more adventures together, and I can’t wait to follow along and learn!🙌🏻

    I purchased this book for my son who was born with special needs that has outbursts associated with his disability. I read it with him and was hesitant at first but then became very interested because I also gave him do breathing techniques to calm him and refocus to a sense of calmness. Loved the drawings!
