Myla is a 6-year-old with BIG feelings, her tummy hurts and school feels impossible.
Sometimes a child’s body speaks before they have the words.
A tummy ache before school. Tears that seem to come from nowhere. Hiding, freezing, or insisting, “I can’t.” What looks like resistance may be a BIG feeling asking to be heard.
In Myla Learns Wings Over My Heart, six-year-old Myla knows she cannot go to school feeling the way she does, so she hides in the garden. There she meets Aditha, the Root Energy Fairy, who doesn’t rush her, dismiss her fear, or tell her to simply be brave. Instead, Aditha shows Myla something they can practice together.
Using Wings Over My Heart—a gentle butterfly-tapping practice—Myla begins to slow down, connect with her body, and listen for the message beneath her tummy ache. Once she understands what her feeling is trying to tell her, she can choose what to do next.
The story brings the Satori Shift to life, giving children and grown-ups a shared way to:
- Notice where a feeling is showing up in the body
- Connect through a practice that feels safe and supportive
- Listen for the message beneath the reaction
- Validate what the child is experiencing
- Choose a helpful next step together
Created for children ages 4–7, this beautifully illustrated story is designed to be read and practiced during calm moments—so its language and tools feel familiar when a difficult moment arrives. It’s a meaningful resource for parents, caregivers, educators, counsellors, and any grown-up who wants to help a child build emotional awareness through connection rather than correction.
Every copy ordered directly from Satori Kid Club can be hand-signed by Angela Thibault—the book’s author, illustrator, and independent publisher. Your purchase helps more little stories for BIG feelings take root.
