“…Duncan, Coatsworth, and Greenberg (2009) identifi ed fi ve key elements to mindful parenting: (1) attentive listening during parent-child exchanges; (2) being aware of, and regulating, one's own reactions; (3) attending to one's own and the child's emotions as they evolve during an exchange; (4) nonjudgmental acceptance of one's own and the child's reactions during an exchange; and (5) an overall sense of compassion and concern for oneself and the child. Such mindfulness is associated with better parent-child communication (Lippold, Duncan, Coatsworth, Nix, & Greenberg, 2015), better anger management and more positive emotion during interactions (Coatsworth, Duncan, Greenberg, & Nix, 2010), and less child noncompliance and aggression (Singh et al, 2006).…”
