About this audiobook
Grounded in mindfulness and neuroscience, this pioneering book redefines discipline and outlines the five essential elements necessary for children to thrive: unconditional love, space for children to be themselves, mentorship, healthy boundaries, and mistakes that create learning and growth opportunities. In this book, you will also discover parenting practices such as setting limits with love, working with difficult emotions, and forgiveness and compassion meditations that place discipline within a context of mindfulness. This relationship-centered approach will restore your confidence as a parent and support your children in developing emotional intelligence, self-discipline, and resilience—qualities they need for living an authentic and meaningful life.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5One of the most valuable parenting books I've read. I've recommended it to all my friends.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is definitely one book that should be in every parents bookshelf. The book uses real life examples, research and practices to help develop your child towards self regulation. The book conclaves how parents are not to sculpture but take on more of a gardener role in order to give the nourishment and guidance the child requires during development . Of course, there are times for safety reasons that you must quickly rescues the child from immediate danger but everyday occurrences calls for more guidance. One aspect I really like in this book which is lacking in most, if not all books, on child care are methods to practice control over yourself. In Mindfulness Awareness Practice # 7:Body Scan" the book explains a method I have used many times to reduce stress. Sometimes we have to get our self together especially if you are having one of those days that we all do from time to time. There are more mindfulness awareness practice that would be very helpful for parents and Grandparents, like me, that are a caregiver for many hours per week.
