Raising Wholehearted Children Step 4: Stop shouting start playing – Sgt Major is not a parenting style!
Today’s blog is about understanding that you have to connect with your child before you have any hope of guiding them to solutions or expecting them to respond to your requests.

As a parent, it can be really easy to fall into the habit of doling out instructions like some kind of...

Why your Child isn't Listening to You

Boundaries are so often missed when our children are young. We often see the result - and today we're focussing on listening - as a problem to fix when, in reality, you can stop it happening in the first place.

The only way that you'll get your child to really and truly listen to you is if you really and truly listen to them.

Welcome to Part 3 of my Raising Wholehearted Children blog series
In this 4 part series of blogs I want to share with you how I’ve learned to live deeply into my own truth and how I bring personal growth into my parenting so that you can do the same.

If you missed the last any of the last blogs, you can check them out below.
Blog 1 and Blog 2 are here!

So this blog is about parenting in the present moment. Not what you would like to be happening (that’s magical thinking people and it doesn’t work btw.)

Raising Wholehearted Children Step 3: It’s time to set realistic expectations for yourself and your child.
This will help you know what it is exactly you’re working toward and allow you to parent in the present moment and work with what is actually going on,. For when we have expectations for a situation that are not being met, this is where ALL stress lives.

Late for work / school anyone? Expect them to to be ready on time? I know you can relate

Stop Trying to Win the Point

When it comes to relationships, when you win you really lose. Because if you're prioritising that instant win over the relationship then you've already lost - but you can change that.

All of the Things...

Personal growth is an arduous – but exhilarating – task.

A lot of what I teach is about trusting our inner visions and intentions because the results we’re aiming for are not instant, they take time and energy. But, oh, what results we achieve!

Raising Wholehearted Children - Part One

Welcome to my Raising Wholehearted Children series of blogs! 

In this 4-part blog series, I want to share with you how I’ve learned to live deeply into my own truth and personal growth, how I bring this into my parenting and how I introduce these topics to my own children so that you can do the same.

The goal for the next 4 blogs is to help you take some simple and actionable steps to parent with more awareness and less overwhelm, so that you can build an incredible relationship with your child, based on mutual respect and understanding.

Now, as much as I’d love to say you’ll never lose your shizzle again, just by reading this series, that simply wouldn’t be true and isn’t something anyone can guarantee you. Even me.

But what I can guarantee you, however, is that these emails will help you put some things into perspective and help you in the creation of a solid foundation for your child that is best for you and your child.

Changing negative thought patterns and limiting beliefs

 

Change negative thoughts to positive 

Today I want to talk about negative patterns of thinking , our responsibility and choices. How to change negative thinking, blocks, and limiting beliefs and be a calm and happy parent, how to break bad habits without yelling. It’s about choice, it's something I’ve been digging into this week with my own growth. It blows my mind how many choices we have. The choices that we have, that we have the opportunity to get to make, the choices that we don’t get to make, and sometimes the choices we’re procrastinating on or avoiding.

What are the choices that I’m not taking, where are the opportunities that I have, what are the choices that I’m avoiding, and what’s going on with me underneath that? If you’ve been in my space for a while you’ll know I like to dig into things.

It’s always about the thoughts, and what thoughts do we sometimes not take responsibility for. I know that if...

When Children Assert Themselves

 

When you apply pressure to one side there's always an opposing force. When this is in the form of trying to control your child's every move, there's going to be a push-back. Children have their own thoughts and feelings and are trying to assert themselves, which is a healthy part of growing up.

I’m running a FREE 5 Day Coaching Series for parents of under 7’s to help you become the parent you really want to be, and raise a happy and confident child who can live to their full potential. And it’s going to blow your mind. Want in?
