Be mindful of monsters: EMDR edition

his "EMDR Edition" is appropriate for therapists and families involved in EMDR therapy. All others should purchase the original "Be Mindful of Monsters." Be Mindful of Monsters: EMDR Edition follows a youngster named Ezzy on a journey from avoiding difficult feelings that have grown into monsters to accepting them with kindness. Inspired by the enduring practice of mindfulness, the story unpacks how our emotions present themselves, and how we can learn to live in harmony with them. Over the course of the book, readers will join Ezzy through the process of EMDR Therapy as they learn how to approach uncomfortable feelings with care rather than resistance, a habit that can lead to lifelong emotional wellbeing. Written by child therapist Lauren Stockly and illustrated by celebrated artist Ellen Surrey, “Be Mindful of Monsters” combines a therapeutic purpose with powerful storytelling to help kids navigate the emotional complexities of life. Be Mindful of Monsters can be enjoyed on its own, or alongside the Mindful Monsters Therapeutic Workbook: EMDR Edition, featuring engaging activities, interventions and metaphors.
