How will our children lead us into the 21st century? We journey to Ground Zero, New York, New York to learn how educators led by Special Guest, Linda Lantieri, have helped reshape learning in the city's school communities and effectively build inner resiliency in the process.

In the new book "Building Emotional Intelligence"
(www.soundstrue.com), pioneering educator Linda Lantieri joins forces with internationally renowned psychologist and Mind and Life Institute Board Member Daniel Goleman to help children respond to and rebound from the challenges unique to the 21st century. This breakthrough step-by-step guide teaches children how to quiet their minds, calm their bodies, and identify and manage their emotions. With Building Emotional Intelligence, parents, teachers, and caregivers have the tools necessary to promote these invaluable skills in the children they raise.

"A heightened self-awareness, better ability to manage distressing emotions, increased sensitivity to how others feel, and the capacity to manage relationships well are vital throughout life. But the foundation is laid in childhood." --Daniel Goleman, bestselling author of "Emotional Intelligence", in his Introduction to Building Emotional Intelligence. My mother says, "A Good teacher can teach what they know to a 5-year old", and on this project are master teachers introducing adults and children they love how to build this innate capacity to renew ourselves.
