The Fire Inside is a gentle, hypnotherapy-inspired children’s story that helps kids understand and regulate feelings of anger. Through calming rhythm and imaginative metaphor, anger is explored as a powerful inner fire that can be guided into warmth, strength, and self-control rather than overwhelm.
Using soothing language and repetition, the story encourages body awareness, breathing, and emotional calm without shame or force. Ideal for reading aloud with a parent, caregiver, or therapist, The Fire Inside supports emotional resilience while respecting a child’s natural emotional development.
This book is a supportive emotional tool—not a replacement for therapy—designed to help children feel safe, capable, and understood when big feelings arise.
