I\\u2019ve been asked a few times to talk about how valuable it can be for kids to learn some of the basic mindfulness practices I talk about here.

The answer, of course, is that it\\u2019s absolutely vital for kids to possess these skills!!!

Because as kids grow up, every tiny experience they have, every emotion they experience, and every stress response that happens in their bodies is contributing to who they will become as adults.

And by teaching children these simple practices and giving them the tools to be more aware of their emotional experiences and to regulate and modulate them along the way, we give our kids the power of control so they can live with more happiness and fulfillment.

Isn\\u2019t that what we want as parents?

And while the schools are coming along in institutionalizing these practices, the best and most effective and efficient thing we can do now is to practice as adults and model the regulation for our kids.
