Moody Cow Meditates

Moody Cow Meditates is a picture book that tells the story of Peter, a young cow who has a really bad day — he wakes up grumpy, breaks his bike, gets teased, and ends up feeling angry and overwhelmed. When he lashes out, his grandfather helps him calm down using a simple meditation technique with a “mind jar”— a jar filled with swirling glitter that settles slowly, just like his thoughts. Through this practice, Peter learns how mindfulness and breathing can help him handle strong emotions. The story introduces kids to meditation in a relatable, comforting way, showing how taking time to pause can lead to more peace and self-control.
