From the New York Times bestselling author and pioneer of the Conscious Parenting movement, Dr. Shefali Tsabary, with a Foreword by His Holiness the Dalai Lama
"This book gets to the heart of parenting." -- Eckhart Tolle
In a world overflowing with parenting advice,
The Conscious Parent stands apart as a spiritual, emotional, and psychological breakthrough. Written by renowned clinical psychologist Dr. Shefali Tsabary, this bestselling parenting book redefines what it means to raise emotionally healthy, empowered children--by first turning the mirror inward.
Rooted in both Eastern mindfulness and Western psychology, this transformative approach invites parents to step beyond control-based discipline and quick-fix techniques. Instead, Dr. Shefali teaches how to develop conscious parenting skills that emphasize emotional intelligence, mutual respect, and deep parent-child connection.
Inside this seminal book that began the Conscious Parenting movement, you will discover how to:
- Recognize your child as your greatest spiritual teacher
- Heal your own emotional wounds and break generational cycles
- Replace punishment with mindful communication and presence
- Build an authentic, mutually empowering relationship with your child
- Shift from a control-based to a connection-based parenting style
The Conscious Parent is more than a parenting book--it's a wake-up call. Dr. Shefali reveals how our children reflect back to us the parts of ourselves we've ignored, repressed, or forgotten. Through their presence, they offer us the invitation to return to wholeness, authenticity, and love.
Whether you're a first-time parent or a seasoned caregiver,
The Conscious Parent will inspire you to release control, embrace transformation, and walk a new path--one where raising your children becomes the deepest journey back to your truest self.
