Raising Peaceful Children: The Importance of Quiet Time

"Raising Peaceful Children" is a topic I'm very passionate.  It has been a central theme in my parenting and teaching for over four decades!  Over the next few weeks, I'll be sharing with you, various practices which are supportive to "Raising Peaceful Children".

If you are important in the life of a child, I invite you to tune in. If inspired, call in and share an insight or a precious moment you shared with a child.

PRACTICE 13:   The Importance of Quiet Time!  Do YOU enjoy some quiet time?  This is time where you are not scheduled, and you can just BE?  I certainly enjoy such time. In fact it's very important for children and adults to have some "inner space" on a daily basis. In addition, this is the time when inspiration, intuition, and imagination can come "knocking" at your door. Tune in for this discussion tonight. Call in if you'd like to ask a question or share an experience.
