Interview with Educator and Author, Noreen O’Sullivan
Look Listen Love

Do you want to focus on mindfulness and acceptance with your children? For anyone not familiar with EFT tapping, check out this website here.
I learned about tapping a few years ago and have found it helpful as an easy and accessible way to reduce anxiety.
Look, Listen, Love written by Noreen O’Sullivan is a parent and children’s guide to emotional freedom tapping. A softcover interactive children’s book, helping children love and accept themselves just the way they are. This book uses animals to teach children the self-awareness and self-acceptance tool EFT Tapping. Included in the book are different animals to help children interact and learn about tapping in a fun and playful way.
For each animal, the author gives examples to learn how to use Look Listen Love. For many children, having examples, especially of animals can help them relate to specific strategies. After each animal, the book gives space for children to add their own Look Listen Love sentences to the book. This strategy helps make both children and adults aware of how you are feeling and giving yourself time to feel the feeling and then accept yourself. Listen to the podcast to learn more!
