Our bodies get wild and silly and crazy. They get scared and worried and restless and racy. They get anxious, distracted, and jittery too-that's simply what our bodies sometimes do. 

But when your body feels this way, it can stop you from being who you are and doing what you most want to do. 

This is where Riley comes in, to teach you how to calm your body down using the Rollercoaster Breath. This mindfulness-based activity incorporates a body scan, visual imagery, and deep breathing. It's an easy-to-implement strategy to help the reader calm their body and reconnect with who they are-unlocking their own special magic. 

The Rollercoaster Breath is a useful tool for parents to use at bedtime, for teachers to use before quiet time, for counselors to use to reduce anxiety and build social skills, for coaches to use to teach focus, body awareness, and resilience, and for yoga instructors to use to teach breathing techniques-the list is endless!

Everyone has magic inside them! Help the kids in your life unlock theirs!

Industry Reviews

"As a physician, I recognize the importance of mindfulness and relaxation, not only before bedtime but throughout the day. As a mother of two energetic young children who love reading, I appreciate that this book makes deep breathing accessible to a broad audience. This is a fun way to teach the children in your life that they have the power to bring calm focus to any situation at any time."  Tracy Ivy, MD - Pediatric Pulmonology and Sleep Medicine


"Incorporating mindfulness into the classroom is an effective way for students to navigate transitions throughout the day, giving them time and space to calm themselves down and be in the best mindset to learn.  My 2nd graders loved the simplicity of the illustrations and were fully engaged in the belly-breathing journey of the main character. This book will be a fantastic addition to my mindfulness read-aloud collection!" Caroline Kelly, Second Grade Teacher 


"This book is a wonderful resource for parents and kids to explore body-based self-regulation. Anyone who wants to explore somatic breath work should check it out. I will definitely be reading this to my three children and recommending it to clients!" Emily Giorgio, LMFT
