Meditation can help children cope with the intensity of their feelings and the
pressures in their lives among family, with friends, and at school. Meditation gives even the
youngest kids enhanced self-understanding, and is especially valuable for
adolescents navigating the emotional peaks and valleys that emerge during that
tricky period. That is why parents, teachers, and anyone involved with young
people will welcome this invaluable guide. In Teaching Meditation to Children, David Fontana and Ingrid Slack teach adults the the techniques
needed to work with children ages five to eighteen. The astonishing benefits
range from relieving shyness, anxiety, and tension to reducing hyperactivity,
aggression, and impatience. Meditation has also proven useful in treating
asthma, insomnia, and depression, in improving concentration and creativity, and
in establishing balance throughout a child's life. Softcover, 205 pages.
