Heartful Parenting (David Myers)

World of Wisdom with Linda Rachel

Can we improve the bond with our children and at the same time foster in them an emotionally healthy attitude? David Myers, author of Heartful Parenting, explains the benefits of cultivating an atmosphere of learning from each other rather than fostering an attitude of ownership of our children.

Rather than focusing on a child's behavior, Myers advocates looking at what is going on the inside both the child and the parent. Myers and Rachel discuss the importance of honesty with children, and of exploring and explaining our own emotionality so that our children can learn how to explore their own.
