But we can find balance—by building simple mindfulness techniques right into our hectic schedules.

BREATHE, MAMA, BREATHE
Called a "Mom Must-Read" by Parents Magazine, Breathe, Mama, Breathe: 5-Minute Mindfulness for Busy Moms is an easy-to-read combination of short meditations, mindful breaks, and relatable stories from my life as a mom to two kids, ten years apart.
As a devoted mindfulness meditator and teacher, psychotherapist, and experienced mom, I was caught unawares when the birth of my second child, a decade after the first, left me feeling slightly unhinged. Opposed to throwing the baby out with the mindfulness bath water, it was clearly time to craft a new normal—one that easily incorporated five-minute mindfulness practices into a demanding, full schedule.
Drawing upon the scientific research of Positive Psychology (the science of happiness and thriving) and mindfulness, as well as years of psychotherapy experience treating overwhelmed, stressed-out moms, Breathe, Mama, Breathe: 5-Minute Mindfulness for Busy Moms is my answer to the enduring question posed by busy moms everywhere: How do I balance it all without losing my mind(fulness)?
