Description
On the morning of Jackson's big tennis match, he can't seem to slow down! He's so excited to eat his grandma's sweet potato pie and run over to the tennis court. But his dad has a special lesson to teach him.
"Paying attention to your breath can help you. In a hard situation, it can slow you down. It can help you choose how you really want to respond."
Breathe up.
Exhale down.
"Every single person has a right to breathe free.
Your breath is yours. You can use it."
This Breath follows Jackson and his dad as they learn the importance of mindful breathing across one special day. With deep belly breaths, Jackson is ready to face whatever challenges the day brings him, whether it's mental, physical, or just savoring grandma's cooking. With gentle messaging around social justice and finding power within yourself, this impactful and prescriptive read is perfect for any family embracing the power within themselves.
