Food for the soul

[Allan-Matlem]

Hi,

Parenting a difficult child means that we need to nurture ourselves and become stronger people who despite our kids cope better and become a source of hope, happiness and joy to them and the whole family.

Hi Star,
I thought I would do some ' soul searching ' and I am glad that you responded. I am hang out mainly on the Explosive Child site - a general parenting site which promotes the Collaborative problem solving approach / Ross Greene and Unconditional Parenting of my favorite author Alfie Kohn

The list of the speakers on the Oprah soul series includes Byron Katie , the creator of 'The Work'
self help - inquiry program. She has a profound effect on me. In a nutshell - you learn to accept reality , not to fight it , not let thoughts take over and make you feel bad , enables one to liberate oneself from the anger and be in a position to deal with situations.

Keep well

Allan
