If you've got young kids in your life, you know: life can get really stressful really fast. One minute, you're calmly eating lunch, and the next...somebody spilled milk, somebody kicked somebody else, and someone needs your help right this minute. It's a lovely practice to be present in the moment, even the hard ones, but that's easier said than done.
Bloomington’s Kelly Smith is a parent and has been teaching yoga and meditation to other parents for years. And they always had the same questions—’how can I be more present?’ And ‘how do I realistically start meditating’ when there's a whole lot of activity happening in my house? MPR’s Emily Bright speaks with Kelly about her book, "Mindful in Minutes: Meditation for the Modern Family" to answer those questions.
