Buddha Mom

In Buddha Mom, Jacqueline Kramer beautifully illuminates the ways in which motherhood can be woven with the spiritual life.

Drawing upon her twenty years as a practicing Buddhist, as well as many other wisdom traditions from around the world, she offers powerful insights into cultivating a more spiritual attitude toward parenting.

In chapters, guided by central Buddhist themes—Simplicity, Nurturance, Joyful Service, Unconditional Love—Kramer’s personal experience of pregnancy, birth, and then raising her daughter to adulthood serves as a guide to integrating the roles of parent and spiritual being.

A celebration of all that motherhood can be, Buddha Mom presents an inspiring vision of child rearing.
