Description

Cultivating Mindfulness to Raise Children Who Thrive introduces an expanded view of human development and health, which begins before conception and moves through pregnancy, early childhood and adulthood.

This book is a call for all prenatal and perinatal professionals and policymakers to appreciate indigenous ways of knowing, being, and doing, and to integrate them with scientific evidence in the care of expectant parents and their babies. It explains how this could also tackle pressing social issues facing the modern world and favour social innovations through a revaluation of preconception, pregnancy, birth, and childcare practices. Sansone presents the reader with scientific discoveries of epigenetics, interpersonal neuroscience, quantum physics, attachment, anthropology, prenatal and perinatal psychology, and mindfulness, which interestingly resonate with the intuitions of primal wisdom.

The book will be of interest to clinicians, policymakers, researchers, parents, and those interested in the prenatal and perinatal roots of human development and well-being.
