Mindfulness is the powerful meditative practice of cultivating moment-to-moment awareness to bring wisdom, understanding, & a greater sense of meaning & purpose into our daily living. Now, parents can enrich their lives & the lives of their children through mindful parenting that is, by honoring the fullness of the present moment, & within it, the inner potential & beauty that reside in both our children & ourselves. Provides a powerful new way of looking at & facing the challenges of parenthood, illuminating how a lack of awareness fosters patterns that damage both parent & child, & how mindfulness can bring healing & transformation to this relationship.

January 07, 2004: This book taught me how to stop losing my temper with my kids. I shudder to think how it would have been if I hadn't read it. Worth every penny.

February 04, 2002: This is by far the best parenting book I have encountered. Practical, not mystical --you don't need to be highly spiritual to learn from it. I wish my parents had read this book. I have read this book, from cover to cover, more than once. I can't say that about any other parenting book.
