“We need to take responsibility for the effect of our environment on our nervous systems, and particularly the nervous systems of our children. No wonder so many of them are diagnosed with all the stuff they're diagnosed with today. Modern technology is a blessing to be sure, but it's also a curse if we allow it to pull us out of our spiritual center. A 24 hour electronic onslaught comes at the expense of our deep humanity and our deepest relationships.” IfsNeedsChildrenTodaySpiritualHumanityStuffHoursResponsibilityWonderTechnologyEnvironmentModernEffectsBlessingOur ChildrenNervousCurseExpensesTaking ResponsibilityOur EnvironmentNervous SystemModern Technology Author:Marianne Williamson
“The principal task is to put spiritual foundations under both our child's life and our own. This triggers a shift in the elemental way in which we relate to our children, with the result that their behavior automatically falls in line as they become aware of, and true to, who they really are. Behavioral changes are an outgrowth of a shift in the relationship.” WayChildrenSpiritualFallLinesResultsBehaviorTasksOur ChildrenFoundationRelatePrincipalTriggersElementalsBehavioral Change Author:Shefali Tsabary
“The spiritual journey is one that we must take "alone together," in the same way that a good marriage involves a dance between solitude and communion. The life of the spirit entails a continuous alternation between retreating into oneself and going out into the world: it's an inward-outward journey. There is a solitary part to it, but that solitude helps us to develop richer and more in-depth relationships with our friends, our children, our community, and the political world.” WorldWayChildrenHelpingTogetherSpiritualPoliticalSpiritCommunityJourneySolitudeOur ChildrenDepthOneselfSolitaryInwardGoing OutCommunionOur CommunitySpiritual JourneyGood Marriage Author:Sam Keen
“My mom was very spiritual. We were a Catholic family. We read the Bible at a young age. I have two brothers and a sister. We're all very close. That was part of our childhood. But when I went to college and then got drafted and played in Anaheim, it was a life changer for me. I was exposed to so many things. I was out on my own for the first time.” FirstsTwoAgeSpiritualYoungMy OwnChildhoodCollegeBrotherMomFirst TimeOur ChildrenCatholicMy MomLife ChangingExposedYoung AgeTwo BrothersCatholic Family Author:Matt Cullen
