      abstract = {" Teaching kids stress management skills early in life  will help them to grow into happy and healthy adults. And  if you work with children or adolescents, you know that  kids today need these skills more than ever. The pressures  they face in the classroom, on the playground, in their  extracurricular activities, and at home can sometimes be  overwhelming. So how can you help lay the groundwork for  their success? A Still Quiet Place presents an eight-week  mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) program that  therapists, teachers, and other professionals can use to  help children and adolescents manage stress and anxiety in  their lives, and develop their natural capacities for  emotional fluency, respectful communication, and  compassionate action. The program detailed in this book is  based on author Amy Saltzman's original curriculum, which  has helped countless children and adolescents achieve  significant improvements in attention and reduced anxiety.   One of the easiest ways to find the still quiet place  within is to practice mindfulness-paying attention to your  life experience here and now with kindness and curiosity.  The easy-to-implement mindfulness practices in this guide  are designed to help increase children and adolescents'  attention, learning, resiliency, and compassion by showing  them how to experience the natural quietness that can be  found within. The still quiet place is a place of peace and  happiness that is alive inside all of us, and you can find  it just by closing your eyes and breathing.
