The topic of mindfulness is everywhere these days: how to raise a more mindful child; how to be a more mindful parent; the benefits of mindfulness on the brain and on emotional growth. But mindfulness is more than a trend or another way for parents to compete — it is an invaluable tool that affects the way we feel, the way we perceive, and the connections we make with our children. In its most basic form, mindful parenting means bringing our thoughts and attention to the present moment and being open and non-judgmental toward those moments. There is a sense of calm that comes with being in the moment instead of constantly thinking ahead to what’s coming next or what’s going on elsewhere. washingtonpost/news/parenting/wp/2014/08/26/how-i-learned-to-be-a-more-mindful-parent/
