142: 60 Seconds to a Calmer Kid (No Screen Required) | Kira Willey

In this episode you'll hear from Kira Willey, award-winning children's music artist and mindfulness expert who has spent nearly 20 years helping kids feel calm, confident, and connected. Her new book, The Joyful Child, gives parents 75+ one-minute songs and rhythm games that help kids regulate, focus, and release anxiety.

We talk all about how to integrate movement and age appropriate play to spark motivation and move our kids to action. 

This is such a fun episode and I'm excited to introduce Kira to you.
