If you can teach a child how to add and subtract, there is no reason they can't also be taught the benefits of wellbeing. Being Down and Getting Up is a book designed to inspire children to look beyond themselves. Children have emotional ups and downs just like adults and recognising them and helping them to find ways to recover and cope should be instilled early on in life.Creating awareness and encouraging regular application of simple activities such as looking at the stars, listening to music or just simply appreciating and engaging with art can enhance the well-being of children and allow them to see the world as a much better place.This book is ideal for people who are keen to nourish the wellbeing of children and adults alike.
Richard Siegersma was born into a conservative religious migrant family, his parents wanting to provide each of their seven children with opportunities they thought only Australia could offer. A career in sales, marketing, consulting and senior leadership roles led to a journey of self-discovery to re-frame the religious constructs that were part of his life. As Executive Director of the Centre for Spirituality, Wellbeing and Health in Melbourne, his objective is to improve the quality of life, build strong communities, create educational resources and motivate everyone to care more about themselves, others and the planet.
