A revolutionary guide to introducing mindfulness tools to kids to help them manage stress and anxiety and thrive. Kids today are facing a perfect storm of challenges they need strong inner resources to navigate. The answer? Mindfulness practices. For the past twenty years, Ali and Atman Smith and Andres Gonzalez, founders of the Holistic Life Foundation, have been sharing yoga, meditation, and breathwork with at-risk kids and their families to help improve social, educational, and emotional outcomes in the low-income, underserved communities in Baltimore they serve. Their work has received wide national attention due to their inspiring results- The schools that have participated in the Holistic Life Foundation' s programs have seen suspension rates plummet and graduation rates go through the roof. In this inspiring guide to sharing mindfulness practices with children, Ali, Atman, and Andres share with readers how they have helped thousands of kids develop deep reserves of patience, empathy, resolve, and-when needed-the righteous anger that fuels deep structural change. Let Your Light Shine is essential reading for parents, educators, activists, and anyone looking to make a difference in the lives of young people.
