The first book on Art of Living is all about self awareness, understanding importance of family and friends, respecting and appreciating others, appreciating surroundings, importance of being kind, humble, helpful and obedient. This book covers 12 core values of Life Skills. Social change, progress and leaving behind of the old ways all seem to be outpacing moral values. With so much exposure to cyber world, television and media, it is essential to help children gain a firm footing in the society. We have identified 84 core values in terms of Self awareness, Empathy, Emotional Intelligence, Stress Management, Creative Thinking, Critical Thinking, Effective Communication, Decision Making, Problem solving and Interpersonal skills to be taught over a period of eight years from class 1 to class 8. The series gives the child a step by step introduction to life skills in relation to his/her immediate surroundings with basic aim of shaping the decision making abilities of children. The series also aims at developing the problem solving skills in the learner so that they have better interpersonal behaviour. The series Art of Living has a mission of inculcating social skills, creativity, human values, empathy and better interpersonal behaviour in the young ones.
