NAUTILUS AWARD WINNER, 2011
Written by Namaste author Shefali Tsabary, PhD, with the Preface by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and advance acclaim by authors Eckhart Tolle, Marianne Wiliamson, Marci Shimoff, Laura Berman Fortgang, and other leaders in the field of parenting, this is the book we've all been waiting for.
This innovative parenting style recognizes the child’s potential to spark a deep soul-searching leading to transformation in parents. Instead of being merely the receiver of the parents’ psychological and spiritual legacy, children function as ushers of the parent’s development.
Once parents are learning alongside their children, power, control, and dominance become an archaic language. Instead, mutual kinship and spiritual partnership are the focus of the parent-child journey.
Parents unwittingly pass on an inheritance of psychological pain and emotional shallowness. To handle the behavior that results from this, traditional books on parenting abound with clever techniques for control and quick fixes for dysfunctionality.
In contrast, in Dr. Tsabary’s conscious approach to parenting, children serve as mirrors of their parents’ forgotten self.
The parent who is willing to look in the mirror has an opportunity to establish a relationship with their own inner state of wholeness.
Once a parent finds their way back to their essence, they enter into communion with their children. The pillars of the parental ego crumble as the parent awakens to the ability of their children to transport them into a state of presence.

There was so very much in The Conscious Parent: Transforming Ourselves, Empowering Our Children by Shefali Tsabary that resonated with me. It is not a how-to book of parenting strategies but a philosophical guide for walking the parenting journey with mindfullness. I put down the book feeling like my mind just left a conscious parenting retreat, punctuated with moments of, “Ah, yes,” and feeling spiritually rejuvenated. I definitely recommend this book for parents in the advanced class.That said, I do have four significant points of contention.
Lack of connection
I walked away from this reading experience feeling a definite sense of separateness as the ideal (in her opinion). But connection is the foundation of everything for humans. The author of this book sees the path to enlightenment as being a solitary one. I disagree – passionately.
Devaluing of full time parenthood
The author conveys a clear message that working away from your child gives them the greatest benefit and further diminishes full time parenthood by expounding the insignificance of direct involvement in your child’s daily life. I wholeheartedly disagree and attitudes like this contribute to a societal devaluing of mothering.
Only child perspective
Some of what she describes is not applicable for a family with multiple children. For example, she espouses a lot of alone time and silence. Having three little boys myself, they are always together and it is never silent.
Traditional Public School
A lot of the book is told through the lens of a family with a child in traditional public school. So much so, that it is presented as the way of life, as opposed to a choice she has made.
Despite these concerns, I still recommend the book for parents who seek to evolve.

The Conscious Parent eBook Dr Shefali Tsabary His Holiness The Dalai Lama Reviews
This is, in all seriousness, the best parenting book I've ever read. It isn't about "how to fix" your kid(s), it's about how to fix YOU.
Shefali dives in very early in her book and really show how we can be more effective parents. I realized that was parenting from my past and not learning who my children are and are becoming. Now, I listen to them, show more concern. I ask them questions like "why do you feel this way, or why did you answer like that."
I see improvement in my children. I realize that every child is a small reflection of myself. Once I begin to do some deep searching within myself, I begin to understand them more and know how to better help them as they help me aslo...
Great, great book for anyone who is about to become a parent (like myself) or someone who already has kids. I haven't finished the book yet but I love that this is not a how-to book, it's a book that walk you through the conscious process and how many unconscious responses that we already have programmed in us.
Definitely a very holistic/stoic approach to parenting but if you already have that mindset about life. this book will spark your imagination )
Bought this for mom- may not have been the right move because she got offended, however, I started reading the book and it is very insightful (it's much easier for me to take in because I am not a parent). I also believe kids can better understand their parents and face issues they struggled with during childhood by reading this.
This book was good info in regards to being aware of your own presence and letting your kids be what they are however it seemed it was just repeating all the info throughout the book. At times the author makes you feel like if something is happening to your child or when they act up its your own fault. I continued to read it and got past that and then just felt like I was re-reading the same info. She basically does not want you to have any sort of expectations from your kid otherwise they are going to rebel in different ways.
Worth the read for the info but don't feel bad about yourself because of the focus on yourself she puts.
I'm a Christian. I've read a ton of parenting books. I homeschool my kids, I live with them 24/7. I've tried a lot of different techniques and they all feel like a cop-out for the real reason behind the struggles. Like Dr Shefali says, "Stop the insanity!" This book has brought a different perspective to the whole scenario. Things are finally making sense. It all starts with me, the parent. The problem is not my kid. The problem is me! Please don't freak out!! You're probably thinking, "oh, yeah, here we go again. It's all my fault!" Yes and no! The good news is that there is a solution. I'm loving this book and I am reading her other one too, The Awakened Family. Don't give up on your kids. Buy this book today and start listening to Dr Shefali's teaching on YouTube.
I never write reviews, but in this case I have no choice. I have a PhD in clinical psychology, and I think this is one of the most important books ever written. EVER. Anyone who has a child, wants to have a child, is having a child, or WAS a child should read this. If Dr. Tsabary's message could get through to any of them, the world would be a better place.
