No one teaches us how to live in a body. Wouldn't it be helpful to know the best way to use our brain? Could it be that we are born with an internal instruction manual? Might it be hidden inside each of us from birth? Within a language that many people overlook? Welcome to Smartview Stories¿ - a self-empowerment book series for children and adults ages 9-99! Our emotional literacy stories help unlock this instruction manual and its hidden language. Our body and brain are always wanting our well-being. We can learn their language. This language reveals what is going on inside of us and around us. With practice, a mutual trust develops within us. What did not seem at all possible IS possible. Walking Together, Book 2 features the Poplar Family. Movement is an important aspect of how we can support ourselves in living brain healthy lives. All three stories involve situations where Stryder or Wendy find someone to walk with them through new experiences. For the part of our brain that is uncomfortable with not-knowing, this sense of walking together brings relief and ease. In Quiet Like a Deer, Stryder finds himself awake at night with a strong inner knowing he'd like to explore. Wendy joins him. In New Moon Walking, Wendy convinces Mama that their feet can grow eyes and dance in the dark if they join Grammy and Grampy for their monthly New Moon Walk. Frustration builds up in Stryder as he plays games online with his friends in The Blame Game. Papa shows us how he gives Stryder space, acceptance and encouragement that he will find his own way, rather than a sense something is wrong. And, of course, they walk as they talk. Our setting is Smartview Village, a small intentional community formed to practice these inner relational skills. The way they live changes. These families recognize the value of sharing their stories. Each book includes three short stories featuring one family. A fourth story features our Inner Companions. Based on neuroscience concepts, these three characters help illustrate our inner world.
Autorenporträt
Smartview Stories¿ is a children's emotional literacy empowerment book project that was birthed on the new moon of July, 2018. This came quite by surprise, I simply woke up that morning and knew I wanted to do this, and that this project would unfold all in its own ripe timing. Earlier in 2018, I had a strong felt sense image of groups of me coming together in team-like huddles. This is one joyful, confident inner team gathered here for this project.I was first inspired by a concept of helping people everywhere find the Safe Place within us that we practice as Focusers. As we learn to create and hold space for our current moment, we are bringing safety to our inner world. Each time we find a way for this situation or this challenging moment to feel seen and accepted to be itself, we bring safety. We may not be able to do this in every moment; however we practice and it happens more often. When we feel a tenseness, a tightness, discomfort of any kind, we pause, tune into the environment and our situation and find something around us to rest into as a safe place. My daily walks in the woods reminded me of this. I noticed all the safe niches that ecosystems create within themselves. We can do this for ourselves and each other too.The first story I wrote is called A Puddly Kind of Day. I wanted to show how a common shaming type of experience that might happen in our youth, would be handled differently if you and the people around you had an awareness of Focusing skills. Over time, joys and challenges facing humanity, from tiny to huge, will find their way into these stories. Thank you, world for weaving the beautiful and strong ground this project stands upon.I will be developing ways to stay in touch.
