Description
Through the dawn of smartphones and social media and all the bells and whistles of this digital world, parenting has become a whole new experience. Gone are the days of being in a state of wonder, wondering why the sky is blue or why geese migrate in the winter. Where we used to have to wait until we got to the library to look up the answer, now we can whip out our phones or simply ask google or alexa to tell us the answer within seconds. How do we parent in such a distracted world? How do we teach our children the value of delayed gratification? The beauty of being in a state of not knowing? How do we teach them to live in the moment? To manage their emotional well being so that they may grow up to become emotionally resilient and handle everything coming at them at speeds faster than we could ever fathom in our own childhood? With so many parents coming to Emily Fletcher, the founder of Ziva Meditation, for help teaching their children mindfulness and meditation, Emily finally answered the call and created Ziva Kids, a mindfulness and meditation course for children ages 4-14. Developed in conjunction with the puppeteers at Sesame Street, clinical psychologists Dr. Shefali Tsabary and Dr. Christina Cohen and holistic pediatrician Dr. Elisa Song, Ziva Kids is meant to help kids navigate their emotions in a healthy way so as to teach them how to be emotionally resilient as they navigate this new digital world. If you've been looking for parenting tips and tools to help you nurture and develop your kids in this way, take a listen to see how Ziva Kids just might be the answer you didn't know you were searching for.
