Teach your child a simple routine which will empower and enable them to self-regulate and take control of their health and wellbeing. The routine of yoga postures, originating from a Japanese sequence called 'Makko-Ho' and acupressure points taught in this book are simple, yet powerful. Connecting the child to the energies of Eastern medicine and philosophy, which govern our body-mind connection. The theory is interwoven through an engaging story of a dragon called Mak, who wakes up feeling a little grumpy and stiff. He knows what to do to feel a bit 'sparkly' and sets off on an adventure through the Five Elements, stretching his meridians and seeking out the things that make him feel happy. Mak the Dragon highlights the importance of movement, friendship, reflection and expression in maintaining good mental, emotional and physical health. Children are instructed how to perform the stretches that Mak is doing and invited to assess the before and after effects, with reflective worksheets and mindful prompts which encourage children to draw and write about their feelings.

Before a good night's sleep, to shake off the stress of the school run or simply for the fun of it.

The story came from relaxation workshops that she facilitated for children, including pretend play, yoga postures, mindfulness and using acupressure points. Finding a way to relate the theory of Traditional Eastern Medicine to children.Writing has always been a part of Natalie's life and this story and workbook is her first publication. It ties together her love of writing in rhyme and her career as an Energy Medicine Practitioner. She hopes it will give children as much joy as it brings to the children in her workshops.
