Parenting That Heals

In this episode my colleague, Dr Alina Olteanu of Whole Child Texas, and I, are being interviewed by Erin Kerry of Sparking Wholeness.  Dr Olteanu and I pride ourselves in being a unique integrative team treating children's spirits, bodies and brains.  

Key topics:

- Rising anxiety epidemic in kids

In this episode, I interview Heather Korbmacher.   Heather is the mother of a son who was diagnosed with PANDAS and who has now lost this diagnosis.  In her excellent book: What Happened to my Child?  she describes her amazing quest to find answers to what was happening  to her child and the best ways to treat this.  In this episode Heather speaks about the kind of therapeutic treatments they tried, what worked and what didn't and offers very powerful advice to parents.  If you have a child with PANDAS/PANS/AE  you should not miss this insightful and important interview. 

Having a sensitive child is a blessing for the parents as well as for the child ... provided that Moms and Dads know how to validate and support the child's sensitive nature, instead of trying to change it.

There is no parent that would ever knowingly parent in a way that keeps their child stuck and prevents them from thriving.  But what if you don't know that you are doing this?  In this video you will learn how to recognize the effect your parenting style is having.

In this episode I interview Carla Atherton, the Director of the Healthy Family Formula.  We discuss:

1.  Her new book, Family Health Revolution, and what prompted her to write this?

2.  What it means to be healthy.

3. How stress is the greatest barrier to parenting in a way that creates a healthy family

4.  The 4 cornerstones of parenting for health.

5.  The fact that being a parent is probably THE most important role a person can ever have in life. Yet it is the one role for which people are the least

This life-changing video is taken from my online program for Moms: HOW TO RAISE CONFIDENT, RESILIENT CHILDREN THAT ARE PRIMED FOR SUCCESS. I refer to it as life-changing because that is what so many parents have told me after seeing it.

Children whose brains are wired differently and who have any kind of learning, behavior or mood symptoms are evolved beings who have come to teach us different ways of being, of parenting and of educating.   Like the canaries in the coal mine, they are here to  warn us of the dangers of being so stressed and pressurized and to show us that we need to make some important changes in ourselves. and our lifestyles.  

Dr Alina Olteanu, who is an Integrative Pediatrician and the founder of Whole Child Texas, joins me on this episode to talk about the fascinating relationship between health and confidence.  She discusses all the aspects of what a healthy child is and offers practical and extremely useful information and recommendations.  In addition, I speak about what it means to be a heart-focused parent and how a child's heart beat mimics the heart beat of the parent.  And how to be sure that the parent's heart rate is one of calm, peace, serenity and joy.   

I am being interviewed in this episode by Erin Kelly of Sparkling Wholeness, following a huge response to a previous interview where I spoke  on the topic of,  'What You Need to Know About Emotional Resilience.  In this interview we focus on the sensitive child and how important it is to help the child understand that being sensitive by nature is a gift and a strength, not a burden.   We speak about all things 'sensitive.'

The concept of Inflammatory parenting is a hugely important one and one that is too seldom spoken about.
