Silence and stillness does have a magic to it. It doesn’t matter where you find it — in your home, your workplace or your classroom. However in our fast-paced world it is getting harder and harder to find. In this book, Maggie Dent explores the cognitive and emotional benefits of silence and stillness, demonstrating how crucial it is for children as well as adults, and details methods for creating it in your home or classroom.
Review:
“Your book, Saving our children from our chaotic world: Teaching children the magic of silence and stillness, has been a complete inspiration throughout my work, studies and life in general during the past decade. I can only begin to thank you for the profoundly positive impact your ideas and generosity of spirit have had on my professional practise, and consequently on the experiences of my pupils and colleagues.” — Alexander Miller, Scotland, UK

Maggie’s advice is so real. It makes so much sense to me as a Mum of three kids under three. Chaos is sometimes inevitable but Maggie’s strategies for finding our calm makes such a huge difference in our lives.
