Some of the specific areas you might want to focus on as a spiritual parent include:

 

Teaching Trust

By always being there for our children we show them that they are taken care of, we give them a sense of faith in us initially and then this can become the foundation to them having faith in others, themselves, and their divinity, whatever their belief system.  This trust allows our children to fully explore and experience their life and all that surrounds them, both physically and spiritually.   

 

Oneness

Through teaching our children that we are part of everything that surrounds us we show our divinity, and we encourage them to see the meaning and importance in their lives.  Oneness can also help children to empathize with others and have compassion.  Through oneness Children can also feel love for themselves, those around them and the world in which they live.

 

Virtues

By helping our children understand basic virtues we encourage them to find ways of living happily alongside others.  We are giving them the means to understand the world in which they live, and how to find peace and happiness.  They begin to appreciate that we are all equally important no matter what our differences or our beliefs.  Our children can learn how to make informed choices, by allowing them to consider the consequences of their actions, their needs and the feelings of others.

 

Intuition

Through helping our children to stay connected to their inner guide, their intuition, is extremely important as it helps them to better understand themselves and their feelings.  This enables them to trust themselves and make decisions that they feel good about.  They can choose that which benefits and supports their highest good, a wonderful ability to have as they go through their lives.

 

Gratitude

Through gratitude and prayer children become aware of all that they have been blessed with in their lives.  This gives them a positive focus rather than one that comes from negativity and lack.  This positive focus is important for their very wellbeing and it also directly relates to what they are able to create and manifest in their lives.   Much has been spoken of the connection between gratitude and the law of attraction in Quantum physics.  Gratitude and prayer also help children to see how they are taken care of, and this giving thanks reinforces their faith and trust in the divine, the higher source, or if you like ‘God’.
