Research shows children need to be held in nesting circles of love. In these pages, we will explore love as the matrix of family life. This nexus of love is the seed-bed of a healthy Self and the foundation for your child’s lifelong wellbeing. We will follow the structure that is presented in the Heaven on Earth Workbook: How to Create the Star of Your Family Culture. (See books section for more info) With love as our first step, we then explore how to craft well-balanced family rhythms, including family work and family play. Let’s also look at ways to incorporate artistic expression and children’s literature into your daily life. We’ll learn how, throughout the years of childhood, to make plenty of time and space ~ more than you would imagine is necessary ~ for all-important play. And we will build within ourselves the structures needed to approach discipline with kindness and firmness. With a warm heart and cool head. Let’s begin now!
“To raise children who, as young adults, can freely create their life as they envision it ~ this is our task. We do this by fashioning a home in which, with a delicate balance of guidance and freedom, our children can discover who they really are.”
