Melissa Maxx

I am a Certified Mindfulness Coach, Life Coach and Author. I help children and adults connect with their thoughts, feelings, and the present moment. I believe we can change the world by raising healthy, confident, emotionally sensitive children—because healthy children make happy adults.

My series of books for kids, "Big Ideas for Little People", is designed to help children be more mindful and aware of emotions. For adults, my book "Mindfulness for People Who Suck at Being Mindful" brings the same lessons of awareness and presence in a practical and relatable way.

You can find all of my books on Amazon, and learn more about me and my work at amaxximizedlife.com.
