More Praise for Wise-Minded Parenting
“This book is a guideline for how to stay in wise mind with your child—a difficult task indeed. When parenting, staying out of extreme emotion mind is both of the essence and extremely difficult. Thank heaven for this book, which gives step-by-step instructions on how to get into and stay in wise mind.”

“It’s very easy as a parent to lose your mind just when you need it the most. This wonderfully thoughtful, wise, and comprehensive guide maps out the latest research and knowledge about what our tweens and teens need to thrive, and, most importantly, offers us much-needed practical strategies for acting and responding more mindfully and effectively throughout this rich and challenging period, helping us to maintain our deep threads of connection with [our children] as they come to build trust in themselves.”
