7b) Mindfulness books for children (attached images)

(**Note: most of the error behind “mindfulness” is that you are enough without anyone or anything else. Many in the limelight have not only believed this, but passed it to children as gospel truth. How can I state this? Look at the number of celebrities we have exposed during our shows who have taken their agendas & attached it to education!)

8) Back in 2019, I wrote about ‘neuroeconomics’ and the grab for our children’s minds/thinking, etc: https://www.commoncorediva.com/2019/11/06/gauging-happiness/

8b) 2018: My article on how you can trace your state’s money devoted to the mind warps in education: https://www.commoncorediva.com/2018/05/18/more-on-that-documentary/

9) As an example, the Feb. 2026 announcement on the NC expansion grant for mental health in schools: https://www.dpi.nc.gov/news/press-releases/2026/02/13/nc-public-schools-awarded-more-11-million-expand-school-based-mental-health-services

10) All my archives on ‘mental health’ overreaches by the CCSS Machine:
https://www.commoncorediva.com/?s=mental+health (there are hundreds of articles and videos)

10b) One of my archived article about the roots of psychology & CASEL:
https://www.commoncorediva.com/2014/11/04/ftf-tuesday-st-sel-common-core/

Lastly, it’s vital to point out that in spite of all the money and agenda thrown at the supposed ‘fixing’ of the children’s minds, that test scores show no improvement. What we do see, as a result of the CCSS Machine’s grinding down of the minds, is more dysfunction! However, when you add the ‘neuroeconomics’ into the mix, the system isn’t failing, it’s thriving! This archived article (2019) of mine explained it from a national view: https://www.commoncorediva.com/2019/04/09/a-nations-brains/

This 2018 article I wrote and published gave you the alarming news of the number of children/students on drugs in the name of interventions: https://www.commoncorediva.com/2018/05/23/mary-poppins-complex/
