At The Mindful Almond® we believe that looking after your mental well-being is paramount, especially in the fast-paced world we live in today.
I am a mum to 2 brilliantly cheeky, creative and inspiring little humans. They have both been diagnosed with an ‘invisible illness’ My Son is visually impaired (at night only) and my little sassy chick has AHUS (an ultra-rare autoimmune disease). Both are total warriors!
I was settling my daughter one night, who takes a while to wind down and sleep.
She confided:
“My brain has lots of tabs open. Can you help me find a way to close them all? That’s why it takes me a long time to fall asleep.”
She has spent a lot of time in and out of hospital and has experienced many sleepless nights.
I would use my love of storytelling to help both of my children switch off and ease into a restful nights sleep.
I was often told by people that my voice soothed them and decided to use this, along with my love of storytelling and mindful practices to create sleep stories for children.
The Mindful Almond® was born and we have since created a range of Mindful Sleep Stories for you to listen to with your child and end the day the right way.
Take a deep breath and join us on this exciting journey with much more on the way!
