HELPING KIDS COPE
WITH STRESS, ANGER, ILLNESS AND PAIN
AN AMAZING FAIRYTALE VIDEO!
- Kidsfreesouls
Read
Parental Stress - Kids Stress |
The first
video Fairytale to teach kids to help themselves in stressful situation is released by
Kira Carrillo Corser
http://www.hopscotchproductions.com
Kira uses fairytale to
teach relaxing, breathing and imagination for wellness. Being an artist, a cancer
survivor, Kira started the video 7 years ago to help a friend's 3 year old kid. The video
teaches relaxing breathing skills and uses imagination to overcome stress, pain, anger or
illness. "Everyone from athletes to corporate executives are discovering the benefits
of relaxing breathing" says Producer Kira Corser. "Kids need it, too. Some
Parents find the video helps kids cope with disturbing war images they see on
television". Many health professionals advised on 'Flora and the Laughing River',
including the Lucille Packard Childrens' Hospital at Stanford. The video was co-sponsored
by the California Wellness Foundation and the Arkay Foundation and produced by Hopscotch
Productions. "When my friend's three year old came down with leukemia and as a cancer
survivor myself, I looked for videos like the ones I used for healing. There are many
visualization and relaxation breathing videos for adults but I couldn't find any for young
children" said Corser. The video targets children 3-7 years. "It reaches
children on a level they understand" said Corser. "Children soak it up fast
because it is presented as a fantasy" Costumed, multicultural characters and original
songs and music get the message across playfully. Children can empower themselves to cope
with stressful or difficult situations. The live-action story centers on
Flora, a girl who is sick, and her little sister, Maraya, who is having a frustrating day.
Their grandmother reminds them of how to relax by breathing deeply. She also tells them
about a special bird that knows of a magical river deep in the forest. The Laughing River
has one of the "secrets of wellness," and Flora goes on a journey to find the
river to learn the secret and help herself feel better. Along the way she meets a grouchy
bear with a sore back, a deer that is afraid of everything, and two bickering birds. Flora
teaches them relaxing breathing and they join her on the journey.
When Flora reaches the magical river, it speaks. It tells her that she already knows one
of the great secrets of wellness-imagination. And the river teaches her and her new
friends to use it. The story builds with a series of colorful scenes as each character
imagines their favorite daydream.
The 40-minute video, plus a parent-teaching guide and a companion audio tape or CD, sells
for $45 plus $7.50 for shipping, The video alone costs $25. For more information call

SAATH - WHO CARES

- 26th April, kidsfreesouls
Throughout the world, there
has been a steady increase in the number of suicides and India is no exception. With the
process of industrialization, break-up of joint families and living under great pressure,
people are less able to cope. There has been increase in emotional crisis with cases of
isolation, stress and work pressures, interpersonal problems, competitiveness and so on.
In such situations, many people sort for alchol, drugs or suffering from mental illness.
Lack of appropriate and timely emotional support and the absence of readily available
external support systems also contribute to the rise in the number of emotional crisis. In
