Summary

Many parents are so busy that they feel near-constant stress and pressure. Some end up yelling and getting angry at their children as a result, which leads to self-loathing. Mindfulness can help such parents relax their minds and eliminate their frustrations.

If you thought mindfulness was something that had to be done alone, in a quiet place, think again. The essence of mindfulness is to focus on the here and now, so there’s no reason it can’t be practiced when there are other people around—even if it has to be in short bursts.

This book contains 60 mindfulness exercises to squeeze into your spare time or even your time with your children. These exercises will help you eliminate the irritability and hazy feelings that lurk in your mind and enjoy being with your child.
