What is the special animated meditation that comes with the book?In each book there is a QR code that gives you access to that book's calming bedtime meditation. You can pull it up easily on your phone or tablet. It is a special video of the book's illustrations animated to soothing music and sound effects. I narrate a calming (but entertaining) meditation on theme with the story you just read. There's guidance for relaxing, guided breathing instruction, and a count down to closing your eyes and beginning to visualize. It is called a bedtime meditation, because your child should be sleeping by the end of it :) I have received some feedback, that some customers would prefer just the audio for bed time or nap time. :) I am adding a few options. Customers will be able to select from the same QR code in their book, the video meditation, or different audio meditation selections that advance in sophistication. (All original and on theme to each book)

Do you write the books?Yes, I write the picture books and the choose-your-own-adventure for more advanced readers. There's many in the pipeline, but of course the editing and illustrating takes quite a while <3
-
How do you make the Illustrations?A lot of prodding on my iPad Pro. I use an Apple Pencil in combination with a lot of different digital tools to storyboard it, collage it together, and digitally paint it out.

Why did you start doing this?Besides the yearning for my creative purpose, I started doing this because I really believe children have a lot of spiritual power in creating their purpose... and it's challenging to encourage them toward it, without involving religion, without involving pseudoscience, without overly guiding what their beliefs should be, etc. I think it's very personal and intuitive. I approach topics like "destiny", "mindsets", the love in your heart, and where flowers come from. My books are designed to be abstract landscapes (above the clouds), a lot of positive affirmations, encouraging rhyming riddles or puzzles.. and a guided meditation to explore mindful breathing or fall asleep to. The meditations are within the book's abstract landscape with sound effects and animations. They are very creative "meditations" to entertain kids into the techniques and to fit into any household's belief system. I am so thrilled to continue expanding my collection of these multimedia meditational books! I'm still coining how to explain them- and so excited for the choose-your-own-adventure books coming soon. They're for older kids to read to themselves :)

What am I buying?You're buying a unique beautiful children's book, written and illustrated by Blairsi. Your book(s) com with extra content for calming down, relaxing, and falling asleep. Each story comes with access to a different bedtime meditation video. They are not the same- they are each themed to the book you are buying :) Use your smart phone or smart tablet to scan the QR code inside your book.
-
What is the print quality like?The books come in hardcover, 9x7 landscape, classic children's book format. The print quality is wonderful. I am very impressed. The colors look great. The whole book is very sturdy, beautiful, and easy to read.
-
Who's the publisher?Me! I am the publisher. Originally, I had been looking for a publisher to partner with, but I'm finding the self-publishing journey to be more fruitful than expected. I am hopeful to keep releasing kids books with multimedia meditational value and focus on empowering self-soothing techniques. I am focused on live audience interactions in classrooms and hoping to expand the brand's niche in that area.
-
What is the shipping situation?For the moment, each book is printed after each order and then shipped. It's usually taking about a week to get the book from the time you placed the order, though it can take up to two weeks- and it does vary depending where you are. If you're wondering where your book is, please let me know, and I'll go find out what's taking so long :)
-
I'm in Canada or Europe... how do I get a book?You can still get the books! You just have to pay a more extravagant shipping fee :( If you don't see your area as a shipping option- I can find a way to add it :) Contact me if you have any problems.
