The book is about parenting with mindfulness. The goal is to assist
the parent in developing an attitude of mindfulness in parenting to
circumvent the trap of power struggling in daily living and develop
an internalized structure of strength and flexibility. This style
of thinking and being in parenting will help you shift your child's
NO to ON, shifting the power struggle into a sense of being Turned
ON to life and living mindfully. This incorporates playfulness,
flexibility, and a sense of structure in how things work and
results in happy, powerful, resilient, strong, collaborative,
unique, self confident beings. The information is presented in an
accessible, entertaining, and thought-provoking personal style.
Woven throughout the book are personal stories, exercises,
techniques, and aha experiences that pull you in and result in your
own personal paradigm shifts. This serves to further solidify the
positive results described in the exercises and techniques defined
in the book. It is the proposal of the author that the application
of mindfulness to parenting is an essential focus of parenting to
successfully work through the psycho-social developmental stages of
childhood. It is a model that provides a middle way, and an answer
to the ongoing debate between authoritarian versus laissez-faire
parenting. It provides resolutions to development stages that
increase an internal sense of motivation, resilience, positive
self-esteem, internal locus of control, self-direction, and
ingenuity. The other two polar styles have proven to have
deficiencies in these areas of concern either resulting in rigidity
or ambivalence. The author has developed powerful, easy to learn
models and tools to bring mindfulness, strength, resilience
building, attachment/connection, and compassion to the art of
parenting. The strategies in this book allow you to develop the
skills and instinctive ability to turn NO to ON in how your child
interacts within his environment so that he can enhance his
positive attributes and extinguish his less useful aspects. The
tools in this book will help you to keep practicing the mindful art
of parenting, resulting in increased self-awareness and self
confidence both for yourself and your child as you develop your
internal understanding your child's dynamic needs and wants
throughout the developmental stages of childhood and adolescence.
Having a model and tools to develop and maintain a strong emotional
connection and good communication pathway with your child is
paramount for working through the major developmental tasks of
child and young adulthood.
