Tia Takes a Hike - Hardcover

by Mind Body Align (Author), Art Mawhinney (Illustrator)

"It's okay to take breaks and rest to calm your mind and body when you need to."

Join Tia and Dwight as they set off on a big adventure up the tallest peak in the labyrinth! With twisting trails, towering rocks, and racing hearts, the climb isn't easy. But with determination, teamwork, and a few calming strategies, they learn how to listen to their bodies, take breaks, and reach the top-where a breathtaking view is waiting just for them.

In this lesson, students learned to become "Body Clues Detectives" by noticing how their bodies give them signals-like a fast heartbeat or tight muscles-when they feel different emotions or engage in physical activity. Through story exploration, movement, and guided reflection, students practice tuning in to their bodies to better understand how they feel and what they might need. This lesson helps students connect physical sensations to emotions and use strategies to return to a calm, focused state.
