ScreamFree Parenting: Raising Your Kids by Keeping Your Cool
This breakthrough parenting workshop has already inspired parents in churches and organizations all across the country to create revolutionary changes in their homes. The ScreamFree way equips parents to operate from their highest principles while quieting their deepest fears. This lively, interactive workshop goes in-depth into all 12 principles of ScreamFree Parenting and allows each participant to begin to internalize the ScreamFree message and start to put it into practice in their lives. By becoming a ScreamFree Parent, you learn to let go of the need to be the perfect parent with the perfect techniques to raising perfect kids. "The truth is that you don't have to know all the right answers at all the right times in order to be the parent you've always wanted to be; you just have to learn to calm down," says Hal Runkel, parenting expert, family therapist and author of ScreamFree Parenting and ScreamFree Marriage.
In this 5 hour DVD seminar, with a personal workbook, you will learn how will to:
• Eliminate power struggles
• Enjoy your children once again
• Act with confidence, feel more capable
• Let the consequences do the screaming
• Raise your kids to be responsible, respectful, and caring adults
The Principles of ScreamFree Parenting

2 - Growing Up is Hard to Do, Especially for Grown-Ups
3 - If You're Not Under Control, Then You Cannot Be in Charge
4 - Begin With the End in Mind, but Let Go of the Final Results
5 - Kids Need Their Room
6 - Resistance is Futile; Practice Judo Parenting
7 - You Are Not a Prophet (and Neither is Grandma)
8 - Parents Set the Table by Setting the Tone (and Vice Versa)
9 - Let the Consequences Do the Screaming
10 - Empty Threats Are Really Broken Promises
11 - Put on Your Oxygen Mask First
12 - Revolutionary Relationships
*** Relationship change involves making conscious choices to take Hold of our own emotional responses, and let go of our child's. ***

Deepak & Oprah's 21 Meditation Day Challenge : Day 6 - The Perfection of Your Body
Just heard about this free online meditation program on Weds, then again in my Spin class on Thurs, so I thought I must be "Supposed" to do this. I did my 1st meditation yesterday. Believe all the meditations are 15mins. It was wonderful....of course I fidgeted alot, thought about my to-do list, how I don't know how to meditate "right", how I should have started this earlier, how other people in my house need to this (my codependence speaking!) or how will I make myself do daily, but towards the end a peace washed over me. Pls join in / register, if you haven't already! Love to keep an ongoing email or text support system. Personally, I need encouragement to form a new positive habit like this. Smoochies!
Day 6 Mantra ~ "I am perfection. I am healthy. I am strong."
