The Parenting Journey

Parenting is an incredibly rich, deep and rewarding journey. It is a journey that opens the heart in new ways, a journey that's ever changing, a journey of growth and discovery. Just as the pregnant mum's belly begins to stretch and grow, parent's emotions, self image and self understanding begins to stretch and grow right from the beginning and most parents find that the stretching, growing and changing never really ends.

Parenting is easy when we're attuned to our child

Most parents think and hope from the beginning that their love and dedication to their child will lead and guide them through each step of the journey and to a large extent that is true. When our heart is open and we are attuned (in tune) with our child, incredible wisdom comes forth effortlessly and we marvel in the joys of giving our child what it is that they need to thrive.

The challenges of parenting

However, the challenges of parenting, which are immense, also can bring forward huge feelings of frustration, self doubt and confusion. The responsibility of this precious little human's life being in your hands and the pressure to get it right can weigh heavily on parents and bring up worries and fears. The demands of needing to give so much of our time, energy, focus and head space to our child when there are also so many other places we need and want to focus our attention and head space can cause parents to feel incredibly torn and stressed.
