This is an introduction to explain how this journey will run. Feel free to join the Facebook group for support (The Self-Coaching Circle) and you can find the whole printable PDF workbook here. Each page will be available again on each day. Enjoy!
Set a clear intention for your 21-day journey to deeper connection with your children, using breathing awareness, heart-centered visualization, and a shared commitment to conscious and positive parenting.
Identify your unique parenting challenges by listing both your child's behaviors and your own responses, then sit with those feelings to cultivate awareness and compassionate growth.
Identify the easy, effortless aspects of your parenting and your children's behavior, then cultivate awareness through journaling, breathing, and a brief visualization to foster healing and connection.
Explore how behavior signals underlying needs rather than mere observable actions. Learn why punishment and rewards miss the need and practice identifying the message behind your child's behavior.
Explore why punishment may not be the most effective method, uncover the need behind a child's behavior, and consider reward-based approaches for a deeper parent-child connection.
Explore how rewards shape external motivation in children and shift toward cultivating internal motivation to deepen connection with your kids and their schoolwork.
Explore how punishment and rewards affect connection in parenting, and learn to prioritize authentic, loving connection and healthy boundaries within conscious parenting.
Explore how emotions interact with brain development, using the hand model to explain amygdala and prefrontal cortex roles. Learn co-regulation strategies to help children regulate emotions and foster calmer days.
Discover how validating children's experiences by acknowledging what happened, not just emotions, builds understanding, reduces invalidation in parenting, and supports setting clear boundaries for future choices.
Set clear, consistent boundaries for screen time by explaining the why, establishing family values, and using calm, validating co-regulation to guide expectations and follow-through.
Explore how to acknowledge your child's disappointment as a normal part of growth and sit with it. Learn to comfort, problem-solve together, and model healthy ways to cope with disappointment.
Explore the value of authentic apologies in parenting, how repairing after mistakes builds connection, and how modeling sincere remorse helps children understand emotions and communication.
Do you wish to build a deeper connection with your child/children?
Go on this 21 day journey to help you do just that. Each day we'll cover a different topic and hopefully you will complete the 21 days with a totally new perspective on your parenting journey.
Parenting does not come with a manual; as “they” all say. But there are so many ways to truly get the most out of your relationship with your children if you take the time to be intentional about your parent-child relationship. I often say that parenting isn’t only about your decisions, but rather about the lessons you get to learn with your children as you navigate this often tough and unpredictable journey.
As a Mom and Intuitive Coach, I have found conscious parenting to be something that has changed my perspective on everything (not just parenting!). It has changed the way I view education, spirituality, sexuality and so many other day to day topics. I feel this is because raising my children has provided a beautiful opportunity to take an introspective look at my own life in order to figure out how to guide them to a more empowered way of thinking in their own lives.
This 21 day journey is made up of activities and exercises I use as a parent, as a coach and just as a person. I hope these tools empower you the way they have empowered me.
On this journey we will explore topics such as brain development; alternative tools to punishment and reward; understanding your child's behaviour; understanding emotional regulation; approaching your child-parent relationship with a new understanding and learning ways to maximise an authentic connection with your child.
Through short videos, guided visualisations and meditations, as well as written activities - you will have the opportunity to dive into the material each day and learn something new (or revisit existing knowledge from a different perspective). You only need to commit about 15-20 minutes of your time each day, for 21 days. You can do it!
The journey is not about being perfect or learning all the tricks. But rather about nurturing your connection with your child and creating a foundation of understanding to go along with you on your own unique parenting journey.
