By choosing to parent children, or to serve as a friend, educator or informal mentor, you have taken up an admirable and challenging task. Committing yourself to the care and education of children sets you on a journey that is ripe with enormous opportunities for personal growth, expanded love, joy, self-understanding and compassion. It also introduces you to areas of your own life that may have been unexamined, confronting you with limiting beliefs and issues of your own self-esteem. This Workbook is the companion volume to Conscious Parenting by Lee Lozowick (Hohm Press, 2010), and is designed be a useful map and “travel” guide for you on this adventure. The Conscious Parenting Workbook (like Conscious Parenting itself) aims to assist you in aligning with a big view of the subject – an overall context from which to parent and educate. Years of personal experience, combined with solid foundations shared with many great educators, have made Lee Lozowick’s Conscious Parenting a pragmatic handbook, much appreciated by his peers and by thousands of parents worldwide. But especially, and perhaps uniquely, his work relies on life-affirming principles culled from his own spiritual understanding along with those from other longstanding spiritual traditions. His work, then, speaks to the ways and means for transforming ordinary family life with children into a primary means of spiritual practice, including the inevitable challenge for work-on-self.
