This book arose out of a belief that children, though born mindful, are being moved away from this natural state more rapidly than ever. With the stress and anxiety epidemic of our time, we’re all in greater need to return to a state of conscious presence—the very definition of mindfulness.
You may ask when and how we’ve lost this simple state. It’s usually around the same time we notice it in our own children—generally in elementary school starting in the mid-to-late grades, when we succeed in training children out of mindfulness and into the world of past and future.
This book is meant to offer tools which can be incorporated into normal, everyday activities to retrain the mind back to this natural state. It is not meant to teach how to be mindful, but to give tools to bring mindfulness back into everyday life. Each activity is intended to be used by parents to regain their sense of peace in everyday life, cope with stressors and anxieties and spend time with their children in conscious presence. It is also aimed at prolonging the natural state of mindfulness in children, help them remain focused and give them tools to cope with stress and anxiety.
