Trauma pervades every aspect of our lives, particularly in recent years between climate change, social justice issues, the coronavirus pandemic, and more.

Six acclaimed teachers and visionaries show us how mindfulness practice can enhance our communication styles and foster deeper, more authentic connection within all of our relationships. What, exactly, is mindfulness? It's a "baseline" of awareness and non-resistance that you can build on the cellular level. Why practice it? Through mindfulness meditation, you rewire your neural pathways to calm yourself in any situation, better manage your emotions, amplify your attention and presence, gain insight into "unsolvable" problems, make wiser decisions, and much more.

Feelings and farts are facts of life. We all have them! And we have to live with them, even when they’re inconvenient, unpleasant, or surprising. They might come out of nowhere!

Striking a perfect balance of funny and factual, this charming audiobook encourages young listeners to accept their emotions (and their farts) without shame, even when they really stink.
