Summary

"Parents of toddlers can find themselves overwhelmed and struggling with self-doubt when their child is wilful, or is having trouble navigating difficult emotions and circumstances. Mindfulness can help! In The Little Frog Awakes, Eline Snel offers parents of children ages 18 months to 4 years advice and tools for responding mindfully and effectively in the moment. These skills help us regain trust in ourselves and in the integral wholeness of our kids. And when we make mindfulness practice a part of daily life, it gives our children a powerful message on how to recognize, name, and deal with emotions and situations. This practical guide will help you to connect with and respond mindfully to your own feelings as they arise; cultivate compassion for yourself as a parent; show you how to encourage serenity, self-confidence, and emotional regulation in your children; strengthen the bond with your kids and help all of you manage stress; be more fully present with your children, and more able to give them your undivided attention; embrace imperfection and focus on the things that really matter; and more The book and the accompanying audio [downloads] include activities, practices, and stories for both you and for your toddler that cultivate mindful moments and action, and self-compassion"--, Provided by publisher
