520    Introducing mindfulness into the lives of our children and
       teenagers is perhaps the greatest gift we can offer. 
       Mindfulness builds emotional intelligence, boosts 
       happiness, increases curiosity and engagement, reduces 
       anxiety and depression, soothes the pain of trauma, and 
       helps kids (and adults) focus, learn, and make better 
       choices. If that weren t enough, research now shows that 
       mindfulness significantly enhances what psychologists call
       flourishing the opposite of depression and 
       avoidance."Growing Up Mindful "helps parents, educators, 
       and counselors learn how to embody and share the skills of
       mindfulness that will empower our children with resilience
       throughout their lives. With more than 75 accessible 
       exercises and practices, along with adaptations for the 
       individual needs of a wide range of children and teens, 
       this inspiring guidebook brings you road-tested insights 
       and tools for:  Tapping the power of the imagination, play,
       and creativity  Body-based mindfulness and movement 
       practices  Creatively overcoming resistance and gaining 
       kids buy-in  The mindful use of technology and social 
       media  Building the foundation through your own personal 
       practice  Attending and Befriending two positive responses
       to stress  Setting intentions and managing expectations of
       new practitioners  Sharing mindfulness in a formal setting
       including schools and workplaces  Extending our practice 
       into the larger communities we share  Seeds of mindfulness
       can be planted in anyone at any time seeds that under the 
       right conditions can burst and bloom into a life of 
       compassion and connection, writes Dr. Willard. "Growing Up
       Mindful" invites you to embark on something incredible and
       world-changing as you join the growing community of adults
       bringing wonder, curiosity, and reflection back into
