Routledge - Cultivating Mindfulness to Raise Children Who Thrive

Cultivating Mindfulness to Raise Children Who Thrive offers a broad perspective on human development and health. This work tracks the journey of human growth starting from before conception and moving through pregnancy, early childhood, and into adulthood. It serves as a vital resource for prenatal and perinatal professionals, as well as policy makers, who want to improve care for expectant parents and their babies. The book advocates for the integration of scientific evidence with indigenous ways of knowing, being, and doing. By combining these different perspectives, the text explores how new approaches to care can address pressing social issues in the modern world. It encourages social innovation through a revaluation of how we approach human connection and development from the very beginning of life.
