I'm a conscious parent when I believe... a parent's presence in their child's life is of paramount value and provides the foundation for their sense of worth.

Children are way more articulate, way more connected to their rights, and they want to be fully participating, empowered members of society but we have to release and we have to let go. We have to allow children to enter their self-governance and their state of empowered presence.

If you want to enter into a state of pure connection with your child, you can achieve this by setting aside any sense of superiority.

The child is free to live out their own destiny.

We can teach children about natural consequences and cause and effect of their relationships which is really a mirror of what happens in nature.

There is no universal template that can be applied to everybody. So everyone kind of enter the process in their own way, on their own time.

[I'm a conscious parent when I] believe that my child matters more than their relationship to academics or success.

Freedom to really prioritize and really zone into what really matters which is the parent-child connection.

[I'm a conscious parent when I] believe that my child is here to teach me as much about myself and how I need to grow, as I am here to teach them.

When we prioritize and focus... and that becomes the anchor... the relationship becomes the anchor... and it trumphs everything else... than it's at once freeing and anxiety relieving... because the connection itself feeds empowerment and self-worth and self-esteem so it takes away the anxiety of raising a child.

I think the main benefit is that much of the traditional parenting that's being carried out today is so fear based and while the parent thinks they're in control they're really being ruled by fear. Everything is connected to fear.

The Children's Justice Campaign reminds us of our sacred obligation as adults to raise ourselves into consciousness so that our children may thrive.
