Parenting with Awareness: Enlightening Our Children and Ourselves - Paperback

Parenting with Awareness blends old-age wisdoms, new-age concepts, and child development research to create a unique approach to parenting that honors the integrity of childhood.

Whether you are just embarking on your parenting journey or a seasoned parent, thought-provoking ideas will present a new way to explore life and approach parenting that will create children who are self-empowered, self-disciplined, and self-motivated.

In today's competitive society, many parents feel they are solely responsible for molding their children's intelligence, talents, and success. Children are pressured to excel, rushed between activities, resulting in a frenetic way of life, leaving families stressed and exhausted. Schwartz draws upon her thirty years of teaching and personal parenting experiences to give parents insights into an alternative approach.

Brain research has proven that children learn through experimentation. This book offers playful ways to teach children to embrace life with all of its wonder and potential through hands-on activities that are creative and fun. These inspiring projects coincide with guided conversations that teach children self-awareness and self-reliance while offering them opportunities to develop the essential qualities of trust, intuition, passion, gratitude, confidence, compassion, courage, morality, and patience as they strive to become successful, loving human beings.
