Author: As a classical pianist, Louise found that the mental focus needed gave her relief from emotional stress. She later discovered a profound state of peace could be cultivated through mindfulness and swapped her piano stool for a meditation cushion! After years of teaching primary classroom music, she realised that there is great need to help children learn tools to better cope with busy lives. This resulted in her writing children’s books which act as a good starting point for children and adults wishing to learn basic meditation technique. Louise loves painting in watercolours, swimming watching musicals and walking her fourlegged canine friends, Maggie the Hairy and Harry the Smooth, accompanied by her two-legged husband, John.Illustrator: Angela Perrini is an artist who also teaches drawing. Her illustrations have been published in several children’s books including Ava’s Spectacles, Santa’s High- Tech Christmas, What’s in Your Mind Today?, My Grandma is 100 and Max’s Divorce Earthquake.
