491: Nurturing Wonder, Making Christmas Magical & Creative Discipline | Lou Harvey-Zahra
from Melissa Ambrosini · host Melissa Ambrosini
How can we nurture kindness, warmth and wonder in our children? Why are rhythms and routines so important for kids to thrive? And why are traditions like Christmas, the tooth fairy, and other seasonal celebrations so crucial for our children’s development? To answer these questions (and so many more), I’m joined by the incredible Lou Harvey-Zahra, a trained Primary, Special Needs and Rudolf Steiner Teacher and renowned author. Ever since I first read Lou’s books, I’ve been itching to get her on the show. This woman’s knack for explaining conscious parenting techniques and the importance of wonder in childhood is second to none! Press play immediately and be blown away as Lou talks us through the life-changing concept of ‘creative discipline’, why connection is essential for a thriving family environment, how to talk to your child about Santa and the tooth fairy, how to start your own family traditions, and allowing the innate magic of childhood to flourish.
