Parenting Style
Parenting is challenging, sometimes extremely so. In this section we examine the authoritarian and permissive parenting styles, and offer alternatives. Here are articles to help parents move beyond authoritarian and permissive parenting styles into loving parenting that promotes personal responsiblity in children - using Inner Bonding for conflict resolution and to promote self-esteem, emotional health and spiritual connection in children.

Daily Inspiration
Today, notice what you do to avoid painful feelings. Do you stay in your head instead of in your body? Do you keep your breath shallow? Do you get angry, withdrawn, judgmental? Do you use food, alcohol, drugs, sex, spending, gambling, work, TV? Today, compassionately embrace and learn from your feelings rather than avoiding them, and see how you end up feeling.
