Slow Living and My Parenting Philosophy Based in Compassion

:: danielle :: — Fri, 23 Nov 2018 17:27:04 +0000

Faire Child has a lovely blog nurturing a culture shift toward more time, more play, more exploration of the natural world.

When I was asked to be one of the hosts for a mindful parenting challenge organized by Bendi Baby, I knew exactly what I wanted to teach — children’s meditation, specifically the Sa Ta Na Ma meditation.
