The Breathing Bridge

Have you thought about what happens to each breath you take?

The air molecules you are breathing in today could have been brushing against a tree yesterday; hovering over a stream two days ago; inside the lungs of a giant bear a week ago.

There is no way of knowing where they were. So, breathe in and connect with the universe! The Breathing Bridge is a lyrical, beautifully illustrated book which helps teach kids about the connectivity of all things, and also serves as a fun aid to teach Yoga to kids.

Yoga is increasingly recognized as a healthy, holistic and inexpensive alternative to highly competitive sports programs that require expensive training and equipment; it can be done anywhere, by people of all ages.

The Breathing Bridge provides a read-aloud picture book that doubles as a yoga class; it can be shared by teachers or parents with children and toddlers.

It also features clear depictions of each pose in the end of the book, for the child to practice on their own. What others are saying about The Breathing Bridge:"The Breathing Bridge is a delightful expression of yoga for any age.

Annie brilliantly illustrates the interconnectivity of breath, movement, people and the planet.

The artwork has a sweet, inspired,fluid feel with lots to discover on every page.
