It’s difficult to stay in the moment when you are worrying about the future or thinking about the past.
One way you can stay calm, feel joy, and follow your curiosity is to immerse yourself in nature.
Can you slow down to see what’s there?
Laura Brand’s children’s book Slow down and be here now, brings us into the magical world of nature. It’s part of a series of Slow down children’s books focused on being present.
This book invites us to get up close with the fascinating creatures that thrive in our natural world.
Watch a hummingbird take a few sips of nectar, discover how a bee cools its honey or see a firefly glow in the dark. Learn about how to pause and pay attention.
Beautiful illustrations by Freya Hartas take us closer to the extraordinary events that happen every day.
