A combination of personal narrative and stories gathered from mothers, this guide shows how spiritual and mindful parenting can help all mothers--Buddhists and nonBuddhists--be more open, attentive, and content. By guiding mothers on a spiritual path, this evocation also helps them cultivate wisdom, open-heartedness, and a better understanding of themselves and their children. The Buddhist teachings and principles help answer questions that all mothers face, especially those with young children: Who are my children? Who am I? How can I do my best by my children and myself? What to do about all that housework? and Is this all? Written in a clear and engaging style, this warm and simple meditation facilitates parenting with awareness, purpose, and love.

This book is great for so many reasons. Two of them stand out the most for me. Firstly, Napthali comes across as a normal mother - rather than some saintly buddhist icon, she is just a normal Mum of two normal boys, with a normal husband who doesn't quite get this whole buddhist thing. Napthali admits to not always coping, not always knowing what to do with her boys -- in other words, admits to being normal. The other point I really liked about this book is that it truly is a book for mothers - it looks at the whole experience of being, what it is to be a mother with a child rather than just how to cope with the child.
For any mother who feels they are drowning rather than waving when it comes to raising a child/ren, I recommend this book. ( )
