Kimochis feeling pillows offer a hands-on, playful and interactive way to help children explore feelings. The Kimochis(R) Feeling Pillows Guide: Activities for Mental Health Professionals to Help Children Process and Regulate Big Feelings elevates the feeling pillows to a therapeutic intervention that provides novel ways to help children ages 5-12 process and regulate BIG emotions. Created through the collaboration of a clinical psychologist, educational director and Kimochis co-founder, and tested by child therapists around the country, the 49 activities provided in this guidebook will lead children to: Actively communicate feelings with more showing and less talking; Build the mind-body connection which underlies the belief that 'feelings fuel behavior'; Confront hard-to-have feelings by being physically able to hold, move, sort, hide and throw them around; and Nurture compassion for self and others. Everyone has feelings and these activities are easily adapted for children of all ages, working one-on-one and in groups. Adults too can benefit from having feelings they can see and touch!
