The Children’s Meditation In My Heart by Gitte Winter Graugaard
Children’s Meditation is lovely for both you and your child. You can read the meditations as small bedtime stories. Like many other stories they are all about love. However, by closing the eyes and tunning in on the body while listening to your familiar voice, your child might be able to take in these words of love more fully.
Gitte holds a Master of Science in International Business, has worked with communication the past several years, has written several books and is a certified Life Mastery Coach, Heart Core Mentor and Transformer, and mindfulness instructor.
