She/Her

Hi, I’m Heather. I was an anxious child who was fortunate to learn mindfulness exercises from a cassette tape that my therapist recorded for me. Although I didn’t know I was practicing “Mindfulness” at the time, I did know that listening to the tape while holding my teddy bear at night made me feel better.

I created Pause with Panda to help children learn emotional concepts and strategies in a way that is fun, comforting and age-appropriate. It’s my hope that Pause with Panda becomes a helpful part of your child’s unique emotional and mental wellness routine.
