I discovered these two books shortly after the birth of my eldest niece in 2004 and found them to be sources of inspiration and guidance on this path.
Buddha Mom ~ Jacqueline Kramer
Buddhism for Mothers ~ Sarah Napthali
More books for the journey…
Everyday Blessings ~ Myla + Jon Kabat-Zinn
Mindful Motherhood ~ Cassandra Vieten
The Mindful Child ~ Susan Kaiser Greenland
Planting Seeds: Practicing Mindfulness with Children ~ Thich Nhat Hanh
The Whole Brain Child ~ Daniel Siegel + Tina Payne Bryson
I just ordered both of these from Amazon. Thanks for the recommendation and for stopping by my blog.
Peace,

I hope you find them to be helpful! I also like “Mindful Motherhood” by Cassandra Vieten & will be adding it to this list.
