Book Reviews of Building Emotional Intelligence: Techiques to Cultivate Inner Strength in Children

Book Review: Long overdue
Summary: 5 Stars

As part of the respected research on mindfulness, cultivating inner strength in children has been mentioned but parents had no guide. This book is extraordinarily concrete. It not only gives parents (and grandparents!!) means to help children, but it strengthens the bond between them. In a day when videos and computers all but raise kids, deeply human understanding will help keep kids balanced and they look forward to doing these things with people who care about them. Get the book for your adult children who are parents, yes--but better, spirit away your grandchildren for these kinds of times which happen with you. A much-needed resource.

Summary of Building Emotional Intelligence: Techiques to Cultivate Inner Strength in Children

What's the most important piece of your child's educational program? If you think it's math, science, or grammar, you might be overlooking an element that is fast becoming essential in today's stressful world: cultivating inner resiliency. In Building Emotional Intelligence, pioneering educator Linda Lantieri joins forces with internationally renowned psychologist Daniel Goleman to offer a breakthrough guide for helping children quiet their minds, calm their bodies, and identify and manage their emotions. Now available to the public for the first time, here are Lantieri's proven techniques arranged according to age group, complemented by a spoken-word CD with exercises presented by Goleman. "We need a new vision of education that includes the mind and the heart," says Lantieri. With Building Emotional Intelligence, parents, teachers, and caregivers have the tools necessary to help build these invaluable skills in the children they raise.
