Publisher Description

Mindfulness--the quality of attention that combines full awareness with acceptance of each moment, just as it is--is gaining broad acceptance among mental health professionals as an adjunct to treatment. This little book is a very appealing introduction to mindfulness meditation for children and their parents. In a simple and accessible way, it describes what mindfulness is and how mindfulness-based practices can help children calm down, become more focused, fall asleep more easily, alleviate worry, manage anger, and generally become more patient and aware. The book contains eleven practices that focus on just these scenarios, along with short examples and anecdotes throughout.

One Sitting Still ,

Wonderful Family Treasure

I discovered "Sitting Still Like a Frog" a few years ago and it has become one of our most cherished tools for noticing things: our breath, our thoughts, our emotions, our patterns and so on. It is warm and inviting and infinitely useful. Funny we don't think of it as "mindfulness" at all, but as "sitting still," and it has helped us out of rough patches in our relationships, helped with the inevitable turmoils of the emotions, and most importanly, it has helped us to see the compulsive inner voice telling you things for what it is: noise. Sitting still centers us, grounds us, warms us up and returns our focus to what is important in this moment. It is calming, invigorating, inspiring and one of the most wonderful treasures a family could have. We have been listening to one or more tracks with our children since they were as young as four or five, and now with an eleven year old, sometimes she asks to put it on for herself.
