Description

Written and Illustrated by Ingrid Elfver, Believe in Dreamz is the first in a series of nine children's books about the 9 Authentic Emotions™. The 9 Authentic Emotions™ are positive words or states of being that children can focus on to help them live a more positive, productive, and whole life: Abundance, Authenticity, Beauty, Belief, Bliss, Dreamz, Harmony, Healing, and Love. Each book in this series is designed to help build the kind of strong Self-belief that leads to a more positive and productive inner and outer adult life.

Every child needs more nurturing, inspiration, and tools to help them cope with their difficult days. Give the children in your life the incomparable gift of sweet Dreamz… filled with love and light, hope and possibility, wisdom and wonder. The vivid full-page illustrations in Believe in Dreamz are reproductions of larger watercolor paintings that are also available as framed art prints (see the Framed Art Prints section of our Authentic Boutique). Also available: Believe in Dreamz bookmark.

Back Cover Copy

Travel with Z each night as he is tucked into bed. Breathe in peace and belief in your Self. Know that no matter what has happened today you are love and you are loved. Fly through the stars and touch the moon. Turn your worries into wishes. Fall asleep knowing that everything is all right, every day and every night.

A Note to Parents (from the book)

Beloved Parent,

We cannot protect our children from life, but we can teach them to be strong and believe in themselves. Help your children see and embrace their inner strength and Self-belief by doing the following:

• Focus on the positive. Too often we emphasize the things our children are struggling with, instead of reinforcing the things they are doing well.
• Tell your children that they can do anything. There is no dream that you children cannot reach or obstacle that they cannot overcome. If we do not put limits on what can be accomplished, they won't either. Instead they will learn to dream big and work hard to reach their goals.
• Don't put your fears on your Children. Communicate in an empowering and loving way. Your children will learn from you. Consciously or unconsciously.
• Work on your Self. Learn how to de-stress. Take time out to care for your needs and inner. Visit www.SimplyAuthentic.com and sign up for the free weekly column Simple Tools for Authentic Living.

Read this story and other stories in this series, aloud to your children every night. Let your children know that they can fall asleep feeling strong and positive about who they are, that they can reach for the moon and starts.

Blissings and Sweet Dreamz,

Ingrid Elfver
