Offering coaching that expands parents’ understanding
beyond the limited perspective we adopt from our culture.
My 30 years as a Marriage & Family Therapist specializing in childhood disorders and their treatments has been an ideal platform through which to understand the conditions that influence the creation of the defensive personality within all humans.
Beginning in childhood, beings start to create and represent individual personae, based on other people’s interpretations of them and the degree of survival they find themselves in.
They come to know this identity as an authentic reflection of their true self, but it’s not, for it’s created out of fear, not love.
“Children are defined by their true origins, the Universe,
and are therefore complete, divine, and eternal.”
Most humans define themselves from what is outside of them, taking that rendition inside of themselves.
This begins in infancy, as parents often see their child as a blank canvas, ignorant and vulnerable, requiring knowledge and guidance from external sources in order to know themselves and adapt to the reality they reside in. The philosophy in “Parenting the Spirit, Not the Species” is based on the opposite perspective.
It proposes that children are defined by their true origins, the Universe, and therefore complete, divine, and eternal. Parents who remember this truth see their child as a spirit with a human, not a human with a spirit. They know that while the essence of the pure self is within all humans, it’s overruled by the compelling reality of Earth’s fear-based matrix.
From my experiences and study of parents and their children, I designed a parenting philosophy that ignites the remembrance of the true and limitless self. This begins with expectations of the child that reflect this memory, seeing them as a magnificent canvas already whole, wise, and capable.
While the Parenting the Spirit model understands the child is highly influenced by the Human Stain, it seeks to denounce its perspective of self and others through the offering of thoughts, feelings, and actions that represent the Heart’s knowing of truth.
Parenting the Spirit philosophy consultations by the author.
I’m pleased to offer my assistance in educating and exemplifying the Parenting the Spirit philosophy for parents who resonate with its foundational beliefs, and for those who long for a more effective way to guide their children so that they might remember that everything they need in order to love, protect, and guide their real self is within them, not outside of them.
If you’re interested in a consultation to learn more about the Parenting the Spirit doctrine, or would like a coach who can help you understand and implement its protocols, I’d be delighted to help you in any way. Please refer to my book, Born With It: The Human Stain for more information about this unique common-sense approach to parenting.
