Book excerpt: RIT is a contemplative therapy to build emotional resilience and self-acceptance Delightful and engaging, this whimsical story of an autistic child's typical school day is told through four child characters. From waking to going to sleep, each pair of pages explores a particular theme: Meditation and the Mystery of Self, Beginning the Journey, Autistic Awareness, Self-Esteem, Building Emotional Resilience, Removing the Mask, Autism and the Ego, The True Self, The Healing of Memories, and Self and Service; tailored to the child's understanding. The gentle simplicity of the narrative teaches the simple practice of mantra meditation, which affirms the child's way of being in the world. This contemplative perspective allows the child to reveal who they are, rather than being told what they are or what they should be, honouring their unique perception of life.
