Mindfulness is widely used in personal development, healthcare, business and sports to improve wellbeing and performance.<br/><br/>Mindfulness at Play is for those it can potentially be of the greatest value to - young people - and the people who give them their primary support, their parents. It combines science and wisdom, theory and practice, strategies and activities. It also provides a combination of psychological knowledge and practical guiding principles which will help parents help themselves, as well as their children, to achieve mindfulness.<br/>The authors know that the benefits of mindfulness are substantial and far-reaching. When young people can clearly focus on their internal world in the present moment, they are better able to:<br/>• Know and communicate their experiences and needs - a critical component of emotional intelligence.<br/>• Discover that they can be curious rather than overwhelmed by emotions, leading to greater emotion regulation and resilience.<br/>• Increase self-acceptance and decrease shame, resulting in greater wellbeing, more effective healing from trauma, and an increase in pro-social behaviors towards others.<br/>This book will greatly help young people's learning development, social development and whole-person development. It is a comprehensive yet light, playful and play-based one-stop mindfulness resource for parents
