Spiritual Parenting: Balancing Ancient Wisdom with Modern Life with Kara Goodwin
April 29, 2025 · 41 min

Parenting from a place of spiritual awareness brings unique challenges and profound opportunities. In this illuminating conversation with author and energy healer Kara Goodwin, we explore the delicate dance of nurturing both our children's spirits and our own.Kara's spiritual journey began through tragedy - the sudden loss of her sister-in-law followed by multiple family health crises within weeks. Living abroad with young children during this tumultuous time, she discovered meditation as her lifeline. What starts as a deeply personal story opens into universal wisdom about the pitfalls of forcing spiritual practices on our children.The conversation takes a fascinating turn as we discuss how cosmic events like solar flares directly impact our highly sensitive children. Those unexplained meltdowns, headaches, or sudden bursts of intuition? They might be connected to energetic shifts happening at a planetary level. Kara offers practical grounding techniques - from barefoot walking to tree-touching - that help both parents and children navigate these intense energetic periods.Perhaps most poignant is Kara's insight into maintaining spiritual connection with teenagers who reject overt spiritual practices. When her daughter faced serious health challenges, Kara had to reconcile her preference for alternative healing with her daughter's desire for surgical intervention. This honest exploration of parental ego versus child autonomy offers profound lessons for any parent navigating health decisions.Whether you're raising elementary-aged children who still eagerly join your meditation practice or teenagers who roll their eyes at the mention of spirituality, this conversation offers both practical tools and heart-centered wisdom. How might your parenting transform if you could connect with your children energetically, beyond words and actions? Listen in and discover the powerful intersection where parenthood meets spiritual awakening.
