The Little Book of Parenting

I wish this book had been available when my own children were young! By embracing parenting as the path of inner growth and healing that it is, Chinyelu gently (yet clearly and firmly!) guides parents through the ongoing process of increasing self-awareness and understanding young children. The wealth of skills provided can help the development of children's true potential - and our own as parents. * Rahima Baldwin Dancy, early childhood and parenting educator and author of 'You Are Your Child's First Teacher' * The Little Book of Parenting is a must-read for any parent seeking to live a calmer and more grounded life! Chinyelu's inspiring and easy-to-follow guidance is just as transformative for parents as it is for children. Her expert approach to establishing daily rhythms in your home will enrich your family culture in ways you never could have imagined! * Courtney Diener-Stokes, award-winning ABC Network journalist and co-author of 'Farmhouse Manna' and the 'Kimberton Whole Foods Cookbook' * I remember the first time I met Chinyelu. I thought she must be royalty from some place; she was so elegant! As I came to know her over the years, the elegance remained, yet I began to also experience the deep waters that flowed through her soul as well as her well-grounded connection to the earth that informed her work with children and families over decades of dedicated care. With kindness and clarity, Chinyelu guides parents toward their understanding of the fundamental needs of their children and how to lay a foundation for life that will support their joy and well-being. * Cynthia Aldinger, Founder and Executive Director LifeWays North America. Author of 'Life Is The Curriculum', coauthor of 'Home Away From Home' * Christiane's book is amazing. It is so thought provoking, insightful and so comprehensive, providing a huge amount of invaluable information within one place. It is not only a must read for all professionals but for survivors of SSA, family members, allies and society as a whole. This book provides so much insight, knowledge and education, with a deep dive into survivor's experiences. It explains the complexities and nuances involved within SSA and the detrimental, long-term impacts. It also highlights how we as society can best support and share in the efforts of preventing SSA. The information, case studies and literature shared provides individuals with tools they need to understand, empathise and best support survivors. One of the best books I have read in a very long time and it has truly enhanced my practice. -- Tanith McCulloch, Sibling Sexual Abuse Project Officer for Somerset and Avon Rape and Sexual Abuse Support (SARSAS)
