Summary
Bring the power of mindfulness into your family’s everyday life.
Mindfulness practice has been shown to enhance our health and quality of life at any age. It’s no wonder so many of us want to teach mindfulness to our kids - but how can a busy parent find both the time and the right approach? “The surest way to raise a mindful child is to be a mindful parent,” teaches Susan Greenland. With Mindful Parent, Mindful Child, this expert teacher presents an audio journey created to help families discover the life-changing power of mindfulness together - in just 10 minutes a day.
Practices to make mindfulness accessible, natural, and fun.
As a mom and pioneer in developing secular mindfulness programs for children and families, Greenland has learned the best methods to fit mindfulness training into a hectic modern schedule. Here, she presents 30 short practices that teach you the mindful path to becoming more resilient, balanced, compassionate, and joyful in your life - using examples, stories, and techniques you can easily apply within your daily routine and lifestyle. You’ll learn how to let go without giving up, be “healthy busy” instead of “crazy busy”, find the upside of failure, build confidence like a superhero, and much more.
In a world filled with distractions and media messages that condition us and our kids to be anxious and fearful, mindfulness is a potent antidote. With Mindful Parent, Mindful Child, you’ll have an invaluable resource for empowering yourself and your whole family with essential skills that will last a lifetime.
Highlights:
- The basics of mindfulness: the simple power of being present without judgment or anxiety

Should be re-titled childfree meditation exercises
I came to audible to find a spoken word version of the authors 'the mindful child' book, which I do own, and from what I've read from it, it's interesting stuff.
This however, less so.
This is a bunch of guided meditation sessions, with absolutely minimal information about teaching mindfulness, or raising a mindful child if you have a child, they'll learn from you apparently.
Well duh, and that's kind of what I'm afraid of and the whole reason for my buying this title.
I have a trio of mental disabilities with emotional disregulation thrown in, I was hoping to be able to teach my little lass the emotional equivalent of eating politely with a knife and fork, rather than what I currently have, which is the emotional equivalent of sticking my face directly into the plate and burping loudly.
I've been on my own mindful journey for a long while now, there really is nothing in this that I haven't already found for free on various video sharing platforms.
Who would I recommend it for?
Those who are happy to pay for the convenience of not having to locate a meditation course yourself.
Those who are happy with guided, rather than self directed meditation. (Personally, people speaking at me when I'm trying to focus on something, just angers me, but then as I said, emotionally I have my face firmly in the food)
Who wouldn't I recommend it for, anyone of a neuro-atypical bent, who hopes to raise a more child with emotions more founded in societal acceptability.
Going to ask for a refund.
