Amazing Parenting: Authenticity

Traci — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 18:04:08 +0000

Amazing parenting includes being Authentic. Kids know … they can just feel it … when we are not “real.” Be authentic.

It doesn’t mean that you share adult themes, or become “friends” instead of the parent, or that you ask for permission, or any of that. It simply means that, as the parent, the adult, you are honest, open, and in your heart with your children … authentic.

Share what you share at an age appropriate level.

Listen (very important) to your kids as well.

Amazing parenting creates a great relationship with your kids through communication and authenticity. This is a way to model for them how to have awesome relationships with others in their life!

Enjoy the “Who I Am” Energy Card for today … “I Am Authentic.”

Have a blessed Monday!

Amazing Parenting: “I Am Inspired”

Traci — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 17:42:48 +0000

Today, our “Who I Am” Energy Card is … “I Am Inspired.”

How do your kids inspire you? If you’re not being inspired, how can you be? As parents, we get tired. There’s so much to do. Are you getting enough rest? Are you eating well? Do you have “big people” time? What do you need that would create peace and tranquility? When you have that, you are in a better place to be inspired, and to truly enjoy the journey of parenthood.

If you’re feeling challenged, share your challenges with us. Let’s move through the space so that Inspiration, Peace and Harmony can be the qualities that we experience in our homes with our children.

Look for Inspiration ~ all around you ~ today. It can come as a whisper, and often does.

“I Am Peaceful” … today’s “Who I Am” Energy Card.

Traci — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 01:54:10 +0000

Peaceful Parenting and Pregnancy.

“I Am Peaceful” … when you find that you are not feeling very peaceful about parenting, or perhaps in your pregnancy, look at this card, breathe, take yourself to a place of peace within you, and look at your situation from there. What do you need in order to feel peace right now? Ask the question, listen for the answer, and then create that.

Many times, it’s just reaching out to a friend for a conversation, help with a meal, or a 30 minute break for a nap. If your friends knew you needed that, they would want to help you.

Go inside.
Ask the question.
Listen.
Act.

Remember, you came into this world with Peace. It’s there. It may be covered a bit, but it’s there.
