What Others are Saying

“My Incredible Talking Body and the accompanying Lesson and Activity Guide provide an essential toolbox full of engaging, accessible, and meaningful activities for identifying and regulating emotions. This is a must-have resource for counselors, educators, and other professionals to help children implement practical skills and strategies for emotion management!”

- Derek Tulluck, Author of Brick-Based Counseling

“As a seasoned counselor, My Incredible Talking Body is one of the books I use often with children to teach mindfulness. I find myself using Rebecca's words often in EVERY lesson that I teach. The added Lesson and Activity Guide allows me to extend this theme to all grade levels with great activities that you can't find in other books. I truly enjoy being able to pick up this easy-to-use guide and know that any of her planned activities work successfully with children. I APPRECIATE that this book shares the materials needed, target audience, reflecting journaling questions, art activities, music activities, and games that are effective strategies to teach self-regulation. All of her activities don't require a lot of money as they use materials that you can usually find in your classroom. The combination of both of Rebecca Bowen's books would give any new counselor a firm foundation to begin her journey as a creative and effective school counselor.”
