Ride the waves

to calmer waters!

The Power of Thought

Lynn teamed up with her niece, Amber Raymond (MSW) to publish the Power of Thought book series. Have fun beaming off to a fictional planet made of crystals, where children don’t know how to manage their emotions and glow in the colour they are feeling. They learn proven strategies to build resilience, social and problem-solving skills, confidence and empathy.

Life is Like a Game. Are you Ready to Play?

The Power of Thought Game is in its third phase of trials. Designed for family game nights, or primary/junior classrooms, it is inspired by real-life stories of children and youth. It's a fun way to learn that our thoughts, feelings and actions are all connected! We are currently seeking production partners. Check out the details.
