Insight shows me how to solve problems

Young Persons Mentor/Uplifting Parenting –

As a new parent, and in parenting, every day is new, I am often challenged to find solutions.

Either I have not dealt with the situation, or it is a completely different one with a different child.

I am grateful for the resources of other parents and how they often help me.

Sometimes, though, nothing is working.

For that, I need insight.

I need to take a deep breath to release my anxious and tense body.

I take that deep breath with the expectation that I will make some space to think.

Even better than thinking, is the room to receive insight.

Through insight, I have been able to connect with resources beyond my expertise and experience.

I have been able to find appropriate avenues for my children’s expression.

I have been able to find teachers and tutors and connections to make new friends.

I am especially grateful for the contacts I made through my homeschooling mom’s groups.

We were all used to searching out resources to help our children learn.

Many times, we created our own.

We were able to give each other support as we moved our children into more appropriate and uplifting surroundings.

We were encouraged to see our children take new steps and begin to develop confidence in surroundings which supported their many learning styles.

Other times I have gained insight into something as simple as locating lost objects for my children.

I have been able to find lost children, too.

I am really grateful for that insight!

We have a Universe which is full of beneficial and uplifting ideas for raising and protecting our children.

We can keep our children safe through insight.

We can nurture and support them every time we turn within.

We may not find all the solutions for their lives, but then, that is the work which they have taken on by showing up in the world.

Our example of trusting our insight may be one more thing which they can draw on in their own life.
