Carla Naumburg visited Google's office in Cambridge, MA to discuss her book "Ready, Set, Breathe: Practicing Mindfulness with Your Children for Fewer Meltdowns and a More Peaceful Family". When your child has a meltdown, it can be difficult to keep cool—let alone help your child to calm down. "Ready, Set, Breathe" offers real solutions to help both parents and children deal with stress using everyday mindfulness games, activities, rituals, and habits. The book is designed for parents of children ages 2-10, and teaches parents skills to help stay calm when their child does act up—especially in public. Carla Naumburg, PhD is a clinical social worker, writer, and mother. She is also the author of "Parenting in the Present Moment: How to Stay Focused on What Really Matters". Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Huffington Post, and Psychology Today, among many others. She is a contributing editor for Kveller.com.
