The Affirmation Station is meant to empower children but will surely have an impact on everyone who reads it. The book also contains a journal giving children a place to self express their own affirmations and practice an attitude of gratitude. Somewhere they can always come back to, making this a book to cherish forever. “Reading The Affirmation Station to my infant daughter reminded me that the greatest gift we can give our children is to demonstrate for them self-love, so that in return, they will learn to love every part of their perfect little selves. If we believe that we become what we think about, then by sharing this beautiful book with your little one, you will be ensuring they put their thoughts toward kindness, gratitude, compassion, and love. I highly recommend you read The Affirmation Station to your baby or child starting now!” -Serena J. Dyer, mother and author of Don’t Die With Your Music Still In You “In this special book, Tania Joy Antonio reminds our children that they are full of essence and spirit. A wonderful way to stay connected to the divinity that is present in us all. -Dr. Shefali Tsabary, New York Times author of The Conscious Parent
There is a place in Costa Rica where people from all over the world work to advance our scientific knowledge. This place, the La Selva Biological Station, is known around the world for its scientific productivity and fantastic rainforest. However, this is also a place where occasionally you will hear things like… “What kind of soup is it?” – “Chlorophyll.” “I’m pregnant!…with a botfly.” “Something behind Casa 4 smelled like a dead animal.” – “Oh, that was probably our field clothes.” “…and this part of it is inedible.” – “Oh, I think I ate that already.” “Your project just ate my project!” Come in for a behind-the-scenes, always hilarious, sometimes gross, and occasionally even inspiring journey into the lives of field biologists in the tropical rainforest. Carissa Ganong’s collection of quotes (hundreds of them over the last few years) will give you an insight into the lives of thousands of students, researchers and visitors to this most wonderful place on Earth.
