1. Let go of your own point of view of the world. Instead, try to imagine it from your child’s perspective. Practicing this for just a few moments each day will remind you of what your child faces in their everyday life and of who they are as a person.

2. See your child as utterly perfect. Perfect just the way they are. This can be incredibly difficult sometimes, and it is at these moments (when the swimming kit is lost again!) that it is most important that you try.
3. What would it be like to have you as a parent? How do you sound and appear to your child now at this very moment? Allow this to change the way in which you behave and hold your body. Modify what you say and how you say it. This will allow you to relate more closely to your child in the moment.
4. Put your children’s needs before your own whenever you can. If there is some common ground where both your needs can be met then all the better. It is amazing ow much common ground you will find that you share. Be patient and you will see the overlaps.
5. Your mindfulness should encompass the expectations you have for your children. Are they really in the best interests of your child? It is also extremely important to be mindful of the way in which you communicate these expectations to them.

6. Listen. Be present and be silent and listen!

When you feel lost, or at a loss, remember to stand still. Meditate on the whole by bringing your full attention to the situation, to your child, to yourself, to the family. In doing so, you may go beyond thinking and perceive intuitively, with the whole of your being, what really needs to be done.

7. We often feel at a loss as to what to do. In such cases, bring your focus to bear on the whole situation, yourself, your child and your family. Go beyond thinking and use intuition to perceive what actually needs to be done. If you are lost - stand still and get your bearings.

8. Keep your balance. We all live with tension and difficult moments. Try to move through each of these moments with acceptance. You cannot always have the outcome that you want. You will find this easiest if you trust your intuition and instincts.

9. Your child is unique and special. Every child is special. Their needs are unique as is the way in which they see the world. Wish them well and keep an image of each child close to your heart.

10. If you have to break a promise to your child, or betray even the smallest trust, apologize. Show your child that you can actually see their point of view and that you understand. An apology will heal you both and help you both see the situation with clarity. Just don’t make a habit of apologizing. That means you’re breaking too many promises.

11. In some moments you have to be clear and strong and determined with your child. Do not be self-righteous or controlling. Don’t act out of fear. Make decisions from a position of awareness and generosity. Mindfulness in parenting doesn’t mean being overindulgent, weak, or neglectful with your children. Neither does it mean being controlling and overly strict or rigid.

12. You are the greatest gift that you can give to your child. By meditating and practicing mindfulness in everything you do, growing in self awareness and knowledge, you can ground yourself in the present and become the parent your child deserves.
