Joy Based Parenting: I Need You To Change

When we finally realize no changes,
not even changes in ourselves will make
us happy we begin to be with “what is”
and show up in the present moment with
our child.
When resisting “what is” we step into judging
“what is” convincing ourselves we need it to change.
Imagine seeing all of your child’s expressions
as sacred.
Only our judgment of their behavior,
in the moment, mask the truth and
convince us THEY need to change!
With only ONE judgment, we move from
being an unconditionally loving presence
to a conditional one.
Today: Notice when your child’s behavior
causes you discomfort and instead of controlling
their behavior, see if you can name the judgment,
in you, that is creating the discomfort putting
a barrier between your heart and your child.
