This website is based on the premise that
teachers matter, that parents matter -- that anyone who positively or
negatively impacts the life of a child makes a significant impact on
the future of our world.
It is our goal to help you make an impact
that is positive, to help you do whatever is reasonably within your
power to help the children that you interact with become positively
empowered -- encouraged, inspired -- to bring forth their gifts, to
nurture what is best in them, and to make peace with who they are,
what they are going through, and what has influenced them.
This may sound like a lofty ideal, a tough role
to fill. But consider: you do this every time you smile at a child,
every time you listen when they are struggling to tell you something
of importance to them, and every time you go with your gut instinct,
your inner truth rather than societal norm, and say, "No, I
won't -- I won't do that to a child. I don't believe that's loving or appropriate."
This site aims to provide you with the
information, encouragement, and connection to resources to help you
be a better teacher, companion, or caregiver through nurturing your
inner truth and wellness and through discovering what others have
learned about how to nurture the inner light of children.
Not everything that this site will have is in
place yet, so keep coming back and checking out what is new.
