Recenzii

""Mindful Discipline" is an intelligent and creative approach to the omnipresent challenge of parenting: how to be kind and loving yet firm and in control. I was struck by the multiple levels of authority the authors drew upon: deep scholarship, personal struggles with parenting, and hard-earned meditative insight."
--Fred Luskin, PhD, director of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of "Forgive for Good "
"I'm deeply impressed and inspired by what [Shapiro and White] are offering the world! It fills such an essential niche, and moves forward our understanding of 'how to' in an important way."
--Tara Brach, PhD, author of "Radical Acceptance "and "True Refuge"
"This intelligent, tender, and beautifully written book helps parents tap into their inner wisdom and create the optimal emotional environment for their child's growth and development. Loaded with powerful exercises grounded in clinical expertise and scientific theory, this book will help all of us navigate the path of parenting with greater ease, clarity, and grace."
--Kristin Neff, PhD, associate professor of human development and culture at the University of Texas at Austin and author of "Self-Compassion"
"Coming from an expert on mindfulness and a leading pediatrician, this deeply wise book shows parents how to nourish both self-discipline and self-worth inside the children they love. Grounded in research, full of personal examples, and loaded with down-to-earth suggestions, this book is a gem."
--Rick Hanson, PhD, author of "Hardwiring Happiness"
""Mindful Discipline" should be read by every parent. This book contains the operating instructions for family life that none of us received in school. Twenty-five years ago mindfulness saved my life. Now it informs all of my actions, including the way I am with my children."
--Noah Levine, author of "Dharma Punx" and "Refuge Recovery"
"This finely and sensitively written book points to the fragility and resilience of a child's soul and demonstrates so clearly how in need each child is of an equally fragile and resilient adult's guidance. An adult, however, having been on the Earth much longer, has been able to add experience to the fragility and resilience and thus becomes the author of the child's life until he or she is experienced enough to become the author himself or herself. This beautiful book is a wonderful guide to parents who wish to lovingly, mindfully, and clearly accompany their children at the beginning of their life journey."
--Meinir Davies, management and teaching team coordinator at the New Village School, Sausalito, CA
"This reader-friendly book is a masterful guide for parents. With great gentleness and humility, "Mindful Discipline" weaves together the rigor of science, the wisdom of reflection, and decades of clinical experience, offering parents one of the most exceptional road maps on how to raise happy, resilient, and emotionally healthy children."
--Andrew Weil, MD, author of "Spontaneous Happiness" and "Eight Weeks to Optimum Health"
"Shauna Shapiro and Chris White have created a wonderful integration of the power of mindful awareness and the insights from studies of child development and the brain to lovingly guide us to a more rewarding and effective way of being as parents. The science of attachment reveals that the most robust predictor of our child's development is how we have come to make sense of our lives from the inside out. This book beautifully illuminates how the previously independent fields of attachment and of mindfulness actually share common ground--that knowing yourself is the best gift you can give to your children. An effective way of achieving this parental presence is through mindfulness, and the stories, ideas, and exercises of "Mindful Discipline" offer a fabulous guide to creating the deep and receptive internal knowing that will empower your children to become resilient, reflective, and compassionate beings themselves. What better gift can you offer of yourself to your child, and the world?"
--Daniel J. Siegel, MD, clinical professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, school of medicine; author of "Brainstorm" and "The Mindful Brain"; and coauthor of "No-Drama Discipline," "Parenting from the Inside Out, "and "The Whole-Brain Child"
""Mindful Discipline" is the perfect guide for conscious parents and teachers. Grounded in solid neuroscience, it shows how to be loving and remain centered, while teaching children to develop their own internal wisdom and good hearts. This book is a gift!"
--James Baraz, cofounder of Spirit Rock Meditation Center and coauthor of "Awakening Joy: 10 Steps to Happiness"

""Mindful Discipline" is an intelligent and creative approach to the omnipresent challenge of parenting: how to be kind and loving yet firm and in control.
