Isn't it bizarre that several years of schooling is required to become a professional, yet there is no formal education needed to raise human beings?! "I turned out fine" is said on the regular to justify many parenting decisions today.  Parents are conditioned to draw from their own upbringing and instincts as their primary methods of parenting, effective or not.  Personal life experience will forever guide parents preferences and decision making; however, today's growing research emphasizes the value of intentional parenting practices. If we want to create healthy parent-child relationships, we must become more intentional in our parenting.  

In this episode you will hear Bryana Kappadakunnel, also known as @consciousmommy on Instagram, share her passion and knowledge on Conscious Parenting, a parenting style that prioritizes the connection of the parent-child relationship.  Conscious parenting is anchored in parent self-awareness and challenges parents to become mindful of their own behaviors and reactions, and the impact they have on the relationship.  Conscious parenting is often synonymous with respectful or gentle parenting, but it is not to be confused with permissive parenting. 

This episode is valuable for any parent who desires a strong relationship with their child. Bryana is a wealth of knowledge and shares practical information along with thought provoking takeaways. In addition to hosting valuable workshops and classes, Bryana is a licensed marriage and family therapist, board-certified perinatal mental health specialist, and an endorsed infant-family early childhood mental health specialist.  Below you will find her social media accounts linked below along with some books she recommends for parents who want to learn more.

Have you ever questioned why we don't learn more about LIFE in actual school?  The School of Higher Consciousness reaches beyond any schooling we've learned to bring you engaging interviews and discussions in several topics including mind-body-spirit connection, emotional intelligence, health, consciousness, conscious (respectful) parenting, authenticity, meditation, and so much more.

In this very first episode, Dr. Gina, chiropractor and educator, walks you through her intention for the podcast, sharing the three purposes for The School of Higher Consciousness:  1. Learn together 2. Connect into our most authentic selves, and 3. Provide parenting takeaways for anyone interested in raising children more in alignment with their higher-selves. 

You will also learn what 'higher consciousness' is, how the brain fires differently in higher states of consciousness, and how the podcast's HOTSEAT episodes can help you drop into your authentic self.

I'm excited for the podcast to create a personality of its own. I hope you enjoy the episode!
