Sometimes, we all end up with too many emotions or emotions we don’t have a use for anymore. We don't remember buying them or asking for them. They were definitely not on our shopping list. But, that doesn’t mean you have to throw them away because no emotion is ever really a waste." How to Recycle your Feelings is a book about reducing, reusing and recycling your emotions. It translates therapeutic techniques into imaginative tools that children of all ages can use to deal with big feelings. It also has a dual purpose: the books aim to reduce anxiety and overwhelmed for any grown-ups who are reading it to their children.

Healing for grown-ups too: Journalist, editor and award-winning self-help author Amy Molloy was inspired to write How to Recycle your Feelings after the birth of her second child, when her firstborn started having night terrors and she experienced postnatal depletion. "So many evenings, I’d read a bedtime story with tears in my eyes, doubting my capabilities and whether I could ever be enough,” she says. "I wanted to write a children's book that reminded me and my children how resilient we all are and allowed us to heal together as a family." Support and praise: Recommended by Playgroup Australia. Supported by primary schools, preschools and childcare centres across Australia. Shared by children's hospitals and hospices.
