Praise for Learning to Breathe, 1st edition:
“Know thyself. Building not only on the accumulated wisdom of the ages but also on the pioneering work of Jon Kabat-Zinn, Broderick has created an extremely well-pitched curriculum for helping teens through what may well be tumultuous years. Practicing mindfulness, a sustained state of nonjudgmental self-awareness, has well-documented salubrious effects. In this well-written and insightful book, Broderick explains clearly what mindfulness is, why it is important, and how to teach it to our youth.”
— Philip David Zelazo, PhD , professor at the Institute of Child Development at the University of Minnesota
“ Learning to BREATHE is truly a gem that fills a critical gap in social and emotional learning programs for adolescents. With a deep commitment to helping young people navigate the social and emotional challenges of this developmental period, Broderick has artfully crafted an outstanding mindfulness-based program supported by rigorous research. The program is unique among its peers.”
— Patricia A. Jennings, MEd, PhD , professor of education at the University of Virginia
“Even when we have an inside familiarity with the practice of mindfulness, it is challenging to make it accessible and meaningful to others. Broderick’s book and program have done just this—translated the practice into a practical, accessible program for both teachers and students. The result is a curriculum that maps beautifully onto both the opportunity and the vulnerability that are inherent in the teenage years.”
— Rebecca Crane , director at the Center for Mindfulness Research and Practice at Bangor University, UK

— Karen Bluth , research fellow at the program of integrative medicine at the UNC School of Medicine
“School reform is doomed to failure until it faces the reality of kids as they come: stressed out, overwrought, and inattentive to schoolwork. This marvelous book fills this gap with a curriculum that helps teenagers reduce stress, handle their emotions, and master their attention. A step-by-step guide for teachers and clinicians, Learning to BREATHE is clear, inventive, and practical, and it can be implemented starting tomorrow. This inspiring book is also a timely wake-up call for the nation.”
— Jerome Murphy , dean emeritus at Harvard Graduate School of Education
