In the Pearl Collection series, each book is a story, inspired by Rinpoche's teachings, in which the main characters practice the magic tool: short moments of meditation, with the stormy feelings of daily life. These books were co-written by Ziji Rinpoche and Celine Wright, in response to the children in their care.
1- Ben Pot and the Stormy feelings, is about a little boy who does what the stormy feelings tell him to do: hitting and squishing others. Oh dear.. It is painful to hurt others. In the story, Ben Pot starts to use the magic tool, relaxing for short moments, and sees he can direct his energy to squish and squash playdough, not people! Everyone wants to join in!
2- Lucy's Choice: Happy Lane or Whiny Lane, introduces Lucy Diamond, a children's favorite character. She doesn't get a cookie and has many stormy feelings. She uses the magic tool, short moments and sees how ok she is even if she doesn't get a cookie! From this place, she has a balanced perspective and can see solutions.
3- Leo, Lucy and the Orange Solution, is about sibling rivalry and what to do when two children want the same toy. Is the only solution to act on stormy feelings, to snatch or to settle for compromises? The children take some bubble space in which they practice relaxing in their energy. From this place solutions arise in which everyone is happy!
