Samenvatting:

You love your children more than anything, yet find yourself snapping, bargaining, or giving in just to get through the day. Dharma for Parents offers a simple, steady alternative: a way to raise kids with patience and balance, where consequences are clear but not cruel, and love is generous without becoming indulgence. Drawing on timeless ideas about dharma and modern insights into family life, it shows you how to be the adult in the room, even when everyone else is losing it.

This is a practical guide to mindful parenting that still believes in firm limits. Through real-life examples, calm phrases you can borrow, and small reflection exercises, you will learn how to clarify your role, use calm parenting scripts in hot moments, and design consequences that teach rather than punish. Dedicated chapters cover gentle discipline, handling sibling conflict, shaping study habits, making family chores meaningful, setting respectful screen time rules, and building a soothing bedtime routine kids can rely on.

Throughout, Naya Kirell keeps one truth in view: you cannot offer steadiness to your children if you are running on empty. The book closes by honouring parent self care as part of your dharma, not a luxury. If you are parenting under pressure and long for more grace with backbone, this book will help you build it, one ordinary day at a time.
