Hello Everyone,
We have started our new book to read for October and November. The book is titled "Everyday Blessings: The Inner Work of Mindful Parenting" by Myla and Jon Kabat-Zinn. Myla and Jon Kabat-Zinn will be hosting the online author chat November 17-21!!!
The summary of this book from Amazon is:
"In the rush, rush, rush of too-much-to-do-and-no-time-to-do-it, the all-important, nurturing aspects of parenthood can easily disappear. Jon Kabat-Zinn, author of Wherever You Go, There You Are (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0786880708/$%7B0%7D) and Myla Kabat-Zinn have collaborated on Everyday Blessings, a book that approaches parenting from the Zen Buddhist position of moment-to-moment awareness. It's a beautiful presentation and a thoughtful approach to mindful meditation that will help you slow down, enrich your life as a parent, and nourish the internal life of your children."
Jon Kabat-Zinn was featured on Oprah as well:
