Myla hid in the garden to be far away. She could never go to school feeling this way.
She cried to herself. My tummy hurts. It came out of the blue. I wish, how I wish I knew what to do."
Then, suddenly, the wind swirled, and the leaves took flight.
And a little pink lotus glowed with magical light.

It was the Root Energy Fairy,
Myla felt sure.
Aditha can help you feel safe and secure.

Aditha smiled softly, “I’ve heard your cries.
Now take a deep breath and dry your eyes.”

“That tummy ache you have means there’s a message to find,
Feelings speak through energy, both in the body and mind.”

"With a bit of practice, calm will return.
We can soothe ourselves to listen and learn.”

“I don’t know how to,” Myla mumbled with a frown.
“That’s okay,” Aditha smiled, “Let’s slow it right down.”
“That’s okay,” Aditha smiled, “Let’s slow it right down.”
“There’s something we can try when you’re feeling blue,”
Aditha fluttered up to Myla, “I can show it to you.”
“First, cross your thumbs, and lay your hands over your heart.”
Aditha fluttered up to Myla, “I can show it to you.”
“First, cross your thumbs, and lay your hands over your heart.”
“These are your wings, this is where we will start.”
“Tap left, then right, just like a butterfly’s wings,”
“Breathe in and out, feel the calm that it brings.”
“Breathe in and out, feel the calm that it brings.”
“Now repeat to yourself,
with a heart full of pride:
I am safe.
I am strong.
I feel calm inside."

I am safe.

“Now that you’ve taken the time to connect,
Let’s take a moment to pause and reflect.”
Let’s take a moment to pause and reflect.”
“The answer is there, let your feelings speak,
Can you remember what happened this week?”
Can you remember what happened this week?”
Myla closed her eyes and searched
her memories just so,
A whisper inside was beginning to grow.
her memories just so,
A whisper inside was beginning to grow.
A memory rose up, like a wave from the sea.
“All the kids at school were being mean to me.”
“All the kids at school were being mean to me.”
“Of course you feel scared,” said Aditha with care.
“Unkind words can be hard to bear.”
“Unkind words can be hard to bear.”
“Now that your body is calm and clear,
You can decide what to do from here.”
You can decide what to do from here.”
“You could talk to someone or draw how you feel.
Letting it out is the best way to heal.”
Letting it out is the best way to heal.”
“Now that I feel calm,
I know what is true.
I will tell my mom.
She’ll know what to do."
I know what is true.
I will tell my mom.
She’ll know what to do."
Myla beamed, “This time it was fear, but next time might be new.
I can soothe myself. I know what to do!”

Did You Know?
We all have an Inner Rainbow inside us. You can’t see it, but when we use our imagination, it can help us connect with the messages our body is trying to tell us.
The colors of our Inner Rainbow and how they help you:
Purple - Clarity & Wisdom
Indigo - Insight & Intuition
Blue- Communication & Truth
Green- Compassion & Connection
Yellow- Self-Trust & Confidence
Orange- Creativity & Expression
Red- Safety & Grounding
Did you notice?
Aditha glows red because the Root Energy is
represented by the color red.
Among all the flowers in the garden, there are seven special ones, just like the seven colors our Inner Rainbow.
Each one belongs to an Energy Fairy who represents one of the rainbow colors.
Myla glows white because white is what happens when all your energies come together. It is the glow of listening, regulating, and connecting to yourself.
Meet Jovie, the Sacral Energy Fairy.
She will join Myla in the next book!
She is Orange. What will she be helping Myla with?

Grown Ups: Did You See?
One of Myla’s choices was to speak to an adult. When her tummy hurt, it was really her feelings trying to speak.
Our bodies often whisper long before our words do. As a grown-up, you can help the child in your life make sense of these messages by asking questions and listening.
Here are seven simple questions you can use to help the child in your life understand what their feelings might be trying to say.
What does your body feel
like right now?
Can you describe it?
Where in your body do you feel that?
Is the feeling big, medium or small?
If that part of your body
(your throat, tummy, or stomach)
could talk, what would it say?
Would you like me to
listen, help, or just sit with you?
Did you think of anything while you were listening for messages?
What helps your body feel
calm so you can hear the
message it wants to share.
— tapping, breathing,
cuddling, drawing?
Just like Myla and Aditha discussed in the story, when you are not sure how you feel, you can always draw it out. You can use this space to draw how you feel.
