"Slow down, calm down, and come together with this complete guide to meditation for the whole family-featuring targeted practices for parents, teens, and kids of all ages. As a certified yoga teacher, meditation teacher, and host of the chart-topping podcast Mindful in Minutes, Kelly Smith is no stranger to the wide-ranging health benefits of meditation. And she discovered she needed them more than ever when she became a mom for the first time. Suddenly finding herself coping with sleepless nights, disheartening physical changes, uncontrollable worries, and near constant sensory overload, Kelly found solace in the same thing she always had: her daily meditation practice. In doing so, she discovered how meditation could help not only moms cope with common family challenges, but every other member of the family as well.

Kelly shares her hard-won wisdom with listeners across the country in her second podcast Meditation Mama, and now, in this fully illustrated book. Mindful in Minutes: Meditation for the Modern Family helps families of all kinds learn how to use meditation to cope with the everyday struggles of being a person who is also part of a family. Covering topics ranging from quieting the mind and managing stress to handling resentment and cultivating compassion, this book offers specialized practices for each family member by age-adults, teens and older kids, and small children. Topics include: Being Present

Finding Joy

Anxiety

Hyperactivity

Worthiness

Empathy

Burnout

Insomnia

Self-Confidence

Overstimulation

Connecting with the True Self

And much more

With three distinct, age-appropriate practices for each topic, Kelly ensures that every member of the family has access to a practical, focused meditation ""toolkit"" to draw on when they need a little extra help. The book also includes a series of dedicated meditations for expectant parents, a series of meditations to promote a healthy, loving relationship between partners, and over 250 mantras to help you focus your mind and go deeper into your practice. Whether you are a meditation beginner or a long-term practitioner, this book will help you and your family feel calmer, happier, and more connected."
