Little-Souls: Child Wellness was founded by Tarryn through her passion of passing on the skill of Mindfulness and Yoga to our Next Generation to be able to navigate life with a little more ease. Little-Souls shares the belief that life should be lived with joy, gratitude, and dedication to being in the present moment which promotes to Wellness within the Next Generation.
Our teachings and practices, focus on helping our children better connect with themselves, their community and the rest of the world using yogic and mindfulness tools. The result is children become more compassionate to themselves, which then radiates from the inside out, to the world around them.
Meaning and purpose are innate and integral to all life- whether it is a bacterium, a lily, a butterfly, a deer, or a human being. The main difference is that humans become conscious of the pursuit of meaning and purpose whereas the others pursue it unconsciously.
In biology, pursuing purpose and meaning in life is called Homeostasis. Homeostasis is striving for survival, well-being, and the desire to reach our peak potential.
Some think that life is inherently meaningless or that we have to create our own meaning and purpose. The many life traumas alienate us from our inherent purpose and meaning. The most universal and unrecognized trauma is social and cultural conditioning.
But it is possible to become aware of our inherent purpose, and as we follow it, we gain access to meaning and sustain it throughout our lives.
