Relationship-based parenting
Relationship-based, not rule-based When I started my EFT work, my children were small and I was navigating my world of attachment, respectful parenting. I was very clear that I wanted to focus on my children’s needs and their innate authority, and I found very specific resources to help me. My passion for deliberate, conscious parenting showed … Read more

Favorite books for homeopathy
Yay, I’m very pleased. The book I use for homeopathic “prescribing” is now in Kindle form. My first go-to book has been the paperback 1997 edition of Dr Ullman’s book Homeopathic Self-Care. But it’s a bit big, and I don’t always remember to take it traveling. I double-checked Amazon and sure enough – it’s now … Read more

“My scans are clear”
This was published on EFTUniverse last year. That’s why the format is more formal than normal. And I’m delighted that Keren herself wrote the closing paragraph. My scans are clear …. When I read that email from my client Keren, I was touched deeply. I knew that we had cleared some of the issues surrounding … Read more
“I got a B!”
This fall, I had the chance to work with a delightful 11-year-old boy T. who was having some trouble with math. His parents and the school had tried a variety of ways to support him, and he had made great progress in all areas but math. The parents asked me to see what I could … Read more
Listening to my children’s intuition
Am I supporting my children’s connection to their intuition, inner knowing, physical instincts, mental capacities, emotional truth, and personal authority? To me this is the basis of my parenting and what the movements of unschooling, attachment parenting, and conscious parenting are all about. It’s my definition of what Robin Grille calls the “helping mode” of … Read more
The brilliance of getting to zero
Don’t be like me and stop at 1 or 2 intensity! Keep going and find new aspects for relief.
A new parenting paradigm
The history of parenting is rather brutal, with children once considered non-entities that could be discarded, killed, or used at the parent’s whim. Over time, our collective approach to parenting is evolving and developing, which is good news indeed. How we collectively parent is the leading force that shapes how we are as a country … Read more
Clearing your birth story
Our children’s birth stories carry a lot of valuable information for us. Patterns for both you and your child are set and /or reinforced during the birth process. Unfortunately, most births in the U.S. are not supportive of mothers and fathers. Parents aren’t supported and thus make decisions they regret later. Identifying and releasing this … Read more
New insights into your children
I recently introduced a fellow unschooling mom to human design — the experience was such a relief for her. I’m finding that more and more I’m introducing my clients to design. For parents, it makes such a difference knowing what types our children are and what types we are, where we are defined and where … Read more
Finding the “I” in guilt
In today’s Law of Attraction craze/phase, folks sometimes think that guilt is a four letter word – something to be avoided and gotten rid of. I definitely don’t advise staying stuck in an energy of guilt, but there is often a nugget of wisdom to be found in our guilt. The trick is to distinguish … Read more
Finding serenity in the soapsuds
I do much better away from home. I thrive on being busy and interacting with others, having things to do and places to be. Being home can be challenging for me; I get bored with the housework and find myself restless. And yet I know that if I am truly at peace with myself, then … Read more
My 7-year old can’t parent
Each of us have many aspects to us. One part of us is the cool, calm, competent adult. One part of us is the playful, energetic child. One part of us is the wounded, wanting to be loved child. One part of us is the wise, complete soulful voice. There are many more parts and … Read more

Supporting ourselves by pausing
I returned this week from taking a womb-surround birth process workshop. It was a life-altering experience for me and while I can’t explain it all here, I would like to share some of what I learned and how it applies to us as parents.
