Mindful or Conscious Parenting

Apple Blossom programs embrace inner-work on the part of the teacher and parent. We believe behaviors are signs of unmet needs and try to figure out what that need may be. At the same time, we also advocate for setting boundaries with children and the need for respect that goes both ways between child and adult.

What is Conscious Parenting?Conscious parenting emphasizes self-awareness, emotional self-regulation, empathy, and intentional presence (Duncan et al., 2009).
