Feet, Head... Go to Bed Amy Haworth

Why does bedtime have to be so hard?

Bedtime can be one of the most stressful times for families: children resist or simply struggle to calm down and caregivers find themselves exhausted, impatient and angry. But, what if there was an easier way to partner with your child to ease into rest, while teaching your little one a practice for mindful relaxation that he or she can use in a multitude of situations for the rest of his or her life?

Bring a new bedtime ritual to your family that's proven to work!

Kids will relate to Patrick, a young boy who has trouble falling asleep. He's not trying to be difficult, he just prefers to be awake and doesn't know how to settle down. It creates stress for the whole family and that stress simply reinforces the cycle of bedtime dread. But one night, out of desperation, his mom introduces him to a simple nighttime ritual that changes everything. Using the body scan technique, you and your child will follow along as Patrick gradually relaxes.

The book includes a script or you can use it as a simple framework to personalize the experience for your little person. You'll be able to transform one of the most stressful experiences for parents and kids into a soothing transition. (Don't be surprised if both the child and the caregiver are asleep in no time!)
