Thank you for visiting "Remembering Spirit in Parenting."  We are very happy to launch a conscious footprint for the aware souls that come into the body.  "We" are Jean and Michael deFauw: partners, parents of 2 children, spiritual healers and teachers.  Our intention with this blog is to provide an accessible space for parents, teachers, grandparents and childcare providers to explore and learn more about how to bring more spiritual awareness into our relationships with children so that we can support them in embodying the wisdom of their soul to the greatest extent possible. 

We believe spiritual parenting means recognizing not only our role as caretaker and teacher of the body-mind as it grows from dependent infant to independent adult, but also our position of guide, mentor, and student to the soul who inhabits that body.  Aware parents have the unique and important opportunity to both foster and receive tremendous learning and spiritual growth within the parent-child relationship.  In our willingness to be both teacher and student, and to be open to constant learning and growth, we can create a space of welcoming validation and recognition for the souls of our children to more fully incarnate with their purpose, abilities, and soul plan intact and empowered.  What an honor and a joy to play such a crucial role!

We hope you enjoy the information and stories shared here.  And we encourage you to comment, ask questions, give feedback and share your stories and inspirations as well!

Thank you for visiting and for being a Light in the world to the children of today.

Namaste.
