Lorraine E. Murray is the founder of the Connected Kids Method, an accredited, certified, award-winning training program that trains adults to teach children and teens (inclusive of neurodivergence), mindful skills to support wellbeing.
She is also the author of 'Calm Kids' (non-fiction) and the children's fiction book (ages 7 to 12): "The Curious Adventures of Robbie and Jess: A book for all children... waiting to discover their superpowers".
She has taught thousands of people how to bring meditation into family or professional lives with young people, has practised meditation personally for over 30 years, is a foster parent and a qualified healer and intuitive expert. She is a teacher on Insight Timer, a podcaster, and a blogger.
"This book truly is wonderful for the general population, but Lorraine’s detailed work on challenges that people with autism face and several specific balancing mindful activities make this the best book I have read for helping kids feel their best. For children who struggle with food, she suggests practicing a gratitude meditation before eating where the caregiver and child explore the journey of the food to the plate (imagine the food growing as a plant and thanking sun, soil, and water, as well as the farmer who cared for it, etc.) Kids become less afraid of unfamiliar foods and textures as they think about the effort involved for the food from a seed in the ground to their plates – I’ve seen this work in my own home!”
"We have found the skills our pupils have learned through the Connected Kids approach to be a useful, possibly vital, life tool for now and in the future. In an increasingly complex and stressful world. We have made them an essential part of our curriculum by integrating short mindfulness sessions throughout the day and whenever pupils need to use them. Our pupils have severe learning difficulties, many also with autism, and yet the ideas can be adapted quite easily to each individual’s needs."
