A recent study by the National Institute of Health suggests that only 1.6% of US children have practiced meditation. They further found that girls are more likely to start practicing meditation at a very young age compared to boys. The key reasons why your kid should practice meditation are to help them focus, get rid of anxiety, and to get them ready to learn. It is also perfect for bedtime. The other common uses are to help children with ADHD or to try to teach a sense of calm to younger children. However, if your kid is strong-willed like mine, they tend to push back. If anyone had tried to "sell" me the idea of mindfulness when I was a kid, I'd have run a mile as well so it's not surprising that our kids are the same.
