Summary

We interview Dr. Shefali Tsabary the author of the The Conscious Parent (with a forward written by the Dalai Lama) and her new book Out of Control which questions why and how we discipline children. Some of the issues we discuss with Dr. Shefali: - What are the first steps we can take to become a more conscious parent? - What prevents us from being the parent that we want to be? - Why most discipline strategies don't work. How parenting our children can help us heal our past wounds. - How to release guilt when we recognize our parenting challenges are less about our children issues and more about our issues. - Can our children be an instrument for our own personal growth? - How do we release the power of natural consequences?

1:10.1	psychology.
1:18.1	And that's basically why Todd and I feel so drawn to Dr. Sheffali in her work is it's that wonderful combination of how to parent here in the moment, but to be also aware of what's
