How you can support your child's intuition

Uncategorized Feb 16, 2022

John,

I'm so excited to share this story with you. If you ever want to know, how as a parent we can truly support our children and their Intuition - here is a beautiful demonstration from one of my clients in the Mastermind.

"Yummii, my daughter won her swimming race yesterday...however, that's not the cool part!

She didn't want to race. She was umm-ing and arr-ing all week.

The previous me would have kept encouraging her and would have continued to tell her, "You can do this! You love swimming!"...I would have wanted to push her.

And instead, this time, I let her have her space.

The day before the race, my daughter shared with me that her Heart says she didn't want to race...and her Heart also said she didn't feel ready...

I responded with, "That's ok...and you have to do what's right for you...you don't have to race...."

So she went to school, and I thought that she wasn't going to race at the swimming carnival...

That afternoon I picked her up. She jumps into the car and exclaims: "OMG, I CAME FIRST!" I knew she would do well if she raced!!!

However, the real win is that she chose this...it was her choice, and it felt so good knowing she did it and didn't do it for me.

The old me would have been encouraging her, and really it would have been "pushing her".

....this was now a choice of her own - and she did it, and she WON!"

My client has a 9-year-old.

Her daughter is developing the relationship with "choice" and hearing what her Heart says - that's Intuition coming through.

There is a fine line between what we think is encouragement and our child feeling the pressure to perform to believe they are worthy and that they are loved.

Most children at this age do things to get approval, belong, fit in - and they will mostly choose another's opinion over their own.

There is nothing that suppresses Intuition more than wanting approval and validation - and children do this when they don't feel there's a safe space where they are accepted for who they are.

Intuition is all about being "in-tune".

To be "in-tune", we must understand how to tune the instrument, the vessel - that is, the body.

No one can do this for us. And it requires a safe space.

To know how to be "in-tune" with our body - we must know when we aren't "in-tune" and have a safe space to learn how to be "in-tune".

To support your child's relationship to Intuition, to have them be "in-tune" - know how to hold space for them - and meet them where they are at so they can learn how to be "in-tune" with themselves.

My client's daughter articulated it brilliantly. "My heart says..."

Trauma is when we celebrate our children only when they are winning at life - and we get disappointed when we think they aren't winning at life - and unconsciously placing our expectations on what they should be.

The incredible 9-year old swam and ran the race for her.

She can now OWN that victory. She can also OWN that resonance and frequency in her body.

She felt loved if she didn't compete... ......and she didn't need to compete in order to be loved.

In Healing Generational patterns within us - we liberate the next generation.

I wish every parent could feel the joy that my client felt - For herself...and for her daughter.

Because that's what this parenting journey is really about.

More letting go, surrendering, and trust.

Less control, projection, and Fear.

We heal - so our children can liberate.

The best way to give our children a "headstart" in life - is to get out of their way!

Want some guidance? Reach out, and let's connect. Book a call - I have a few spots left this month. 

Sending love,

Yummii xx
