This is a unique book written for parents and children and is about kids, yoga and Ayurveda, and how we can all become better, more intentional parents with the help of the intuitive five-thousand-year-old sister science of Yoga. The heart of the book is three beautifully illustrated poems, each written to clearly explain one of Ayurvedas three doshas, which in combination make up a persons prakriti (their nature). The text is simple enough that children of all ages will have a sense of what this Ayurveda thing is. And it wont be lost on Mom or Dad either.

In her 20s, Jennifer Hardy-Berthiaume (a.k.a. Jenny Bee) had a thriving career as a journalist and editor. After the birth of her second child and a postpartum depression diagnosis, she turned to a career that better suited herteaching Yoga. She specializes in yoga for women and children, is a yoga therapist, doula, birth educator and Ayurvedic Lifestyle Consultant. (Yes, lots of projectsthat is Vata).

In watching herself and those around her, Jenny discovered how simple it could be to use Ayurveda to make tweaks in diet and lifestyle. She became determined (thats the Pitta) to help others better understand the people around them and find more balance in their own lives. She believes that its in understanding Ayurveda that we find compassion and learn the tools we need to meet our friends, colleagues, spouses and children where they are.

Jenny teaches in Montreal and runs the popular collective blog A Yogi Mamas Guide. She lives with her Vata-Pitta daughter and Kapha-Pitta son and husband. Shes written many books for children (her Vata) but this is the first one that her Pitta pushed her to publish.
