Episode #39 8 Steps We Can Take to Enhance Children’s Innate Wonder of Life
Manage episode 374510313 series 3408578
In this episode, Brooke and Noa share eight things we can do to enhance children's innate wonder of life and how not to get stuck in the parent-child labeling.
1. Allow them to teach us. Our children are closer to the non-physical world; they have come from the non-physical into the physical. Spirituality teaches us that our soul chooses our parents and family before coming to this world. We make this choice because our family is comprised of the perfect souls to teach us the lessons we need to learn so that we can become the person we are meant to be
2. Kids who feel secure are the ones that feel the most free to play. Allow them to be innately who they are, not who we think they should be.
3. Fostering an environment where they don't seek the approval of others. Children are free of judgment - and then, ultimately, they "learn" to look for the approval of others.
4. Connection to Source - Kids are more intuitive, and as such, they feel things we may not. Listen to that intuition when they do not want to hug someone; it's valid.
5. Stop defending their behavior: they usually express our own internal feelings.
6. Natural Expression of Feelings - help them translate their feelings into words without going into frustration and anger. Check-in with yourself first.
7. Children's brains are like sponges, and in their theta brain wave, they Tare in super learning Innately connected state. Allow them to go into their creative mode.
8. Sibling rivalry - spiritual traditions teach us that children choose their siblings and must learn from each other. Look at it from a more spiritual lens- how can I be their guide and facilitate what's going on rather than correct their behavior?
