The nervous system is a network of nerves in our body and brain that helps us do things like breathe and digest (turn our food into poop!) as well as helping us do stuff like, see, hear and move around.

 

It's a bit like the clever things that go on behind the scenes in a computer.  We don't always have to know how they work....but it can often help things run better if we do.

 

The other important thing to know is that it is very clever and very quick!  In fact our nervous system responds to things even quicker than the 'thinking part' of our brains!

 

So, it made sense to me that if each Mindful Marauder has their very own response system - Fight, Flight, Freeze, Attach or Submit then it would be a fun way to help children begin to understand how their own reactions may show up.

If you explore each character a little more deeply (The Team) you can find out more about this and how each Mindful Marauder has their very own unique way of showing up in our stories...

How do Adventure stories expand Curiosity?

 

Another great question!

​

So....not only are our stories full of adventure and fun, they are all also enriched with these great nuggets of learning.

 

Our intention (if you should choose to join us) is to tell adventurous stories whilst also teaching about mindfulness and emotions and all this other stuff that we think would be helpful for children (and adults) to know.

We'd like to share with you how behaviours may show up, how they are learnt in the first place....and what we can all do to help change much of this. 

 

But, as I keep saying...the most important thing is all the fun we are going to have along the way!

Still curious?

We do hope so....as there are just toooo many adventures we can all go on together.
