Stephen Hinshaw, PhD , professor of psychology at University of California, Berkeley, professor of psychiatry at University of California, San Francisco, and author of The ADHD Explosion: Myths, Medication, Money, and Todays Push for Performance

This innovative book combines the best of what is known about ADHD, its deficits in executive functioning, and the types of science-based management strategies they require, as well as possible medications to combine with them, along with the latest practices for incorporating mindfulness into everyday life situations, such as parenting. Parents of children with ADHD struggle not only with managing their children but also with far higher levels of parenting stress, depression, anxiety, and marital strife than do typical parents. This combination of mindfulness practices with more traditional behavioral and medical treatments for ADHD is likely to prove exceptionally useful for parents for both stress reduction and improved parent-child relationships.

Russell A. Barkley, PhD , clinical professor of psychiatry and pediatrics, Medical University of South Carolina

A practical, hands-on set of tools for parenting kids diagnosed with ADHD, Mark Bertins book will be a great support to many. Mark provides clear and simple ways to bring mindfulness practice to bear on navigating the ups and downs of family life. He offers the valuable perspective that, while life cannot, by nature, be perfect, it is possible to do the work of raising your child to live well and happily.

Sharon Salzberg , author of Lovingkindness and Real Happiness

Mark Bertin offers a compassionate guide for parents to navigate the challenging journey of raising a child or teen with ADHD. He reminds them to start by taking care of themselves with mindfulness and compassion, which then allows them to share their full wisdom and loving presence for the benefit of their children. I will be wholeheartedly recommending this book to all of the families in my practice who are living with ADHD, so that they can do more than just live with it, but thrive!

Dzung X. Vo, MD , pediatrician and adolescent medicine specialist, author of The Mindful Teen

Mindful Parenting for ADHD is a gift to lost and overwhelmed parents. Bertin offers a clear, compassionate, comprehensive, and practical guide to parents struggling to find the calm within the seeming chaos of life with a child with ADHD, along with succinct tools for managing it.

Christopher Willard, PsyD , author of Childs Mind and Growing Up Mindful , Cambridge Health Alliance/Harvard Medical School

This book is the ultimate gold mine of understanding your child with ADHD in a new and insightful way. Bertin explains how practicing mindfulness changes the way you as a parent see your child through the lens of truly understanding the ADHD experience. You will learn to act instead of react, understand instead of judge, and stay calm instead of banging your head against the wall. Best of all, Bertin gives you specific, easy-to-follow tools for dealing with challenging behaviors. It all comes down to being mindful, and understanding the ADHD brain and the behaviors that are borne from that. A fabulous book for parents looking for a better way to manage their challenging children, as well as for professionals working with these children. Ill be recommending this one to my clients!

Terry Matlen, ACSW , director of www.ADDconsults.com, and author of The Queen of Distraction and Survival Tips for Women with AD/HD

As the parent of a child with ADHD, and as a holistic physician and mindfulness coach who supports many children and families living with ADHD, I find this book an invaluable resource. Every chapter offers simple, doable, and transformative mindfulness practices; practical, achievable action items; grounded perspective; a long-term view; and most importantly, hope and compassion for children and parents living with ADHD.

Amy Saltzman, MD , director of the Association for Mindfulness in Education and author of A Still Quiet Place

Having ADHD can not only be difficult for the child who suffers the consequences of his or her behaviors, but can also place great stress on the family. Parents dont understand why their child acts the way he does, and because they are unsure, they often react in a way that may not always be helpful. Thats where Mark Bertins new book Mindful Parenting for ADHD comes in! Within its pages, parents will grow to better understand ADHD and find the tools necessary to respond to their childs behaviors with compassion, as well as structure, using a focused, mindful approach. Mindful Parenting for ADHD underscores the need for parents to take care of themselves in order to meet the challenges of parenting a child with ADHD with calm, kindness, and consistency. Written in a reassuring style and filled with easy-to-use worksheets that cover a myriad of topics from setting limits to improving communication or making the most of homework, I wish all parents of children with ADHD could receive the gifts offered in this wonderful book! They and their children would all be the better for it!

Patricia O. Quinn, MD , developmental pediatrician, Washington, DC, coauthor of Putting on the Brakes: Understanding and Taking Control of Your ADD or ADHD and Understanding Girls with ADHD , and author of Attention, Girls! A Guide to Learn All About Your AD/HD

Parenting is a very challenging role, and even more so when children have a diagnosis of ADHD. Mark Bertin has written a truly remarkable book that offers numerous strategies to help children with ADHD to become more successful and resilient. Very importantly, he addresses a key issue; namely, that unless parents learn to deal realistically with their own expectations, pressure, and stress, they will not be as effective when helping their children with ADHD to meet the many developmental demands they will face. In a very empathic, easy-to-read style, Bertin provides practical techniques rooted in mindfulness theory that parents can apply in their own lives. This book is a wonderful resource for parents (and I might add for professionals as well)a resource that will be read and reread as parents enrich their own lives and the lives of their children.
