'Parents ... you will be wowed and awed by [Dr. Shefali].' - Oprah Winfrey Become the awakened parent you've always wanted to be and watch your children thrive.

In many cases, this puts huge amounts of pressure on children and has the potential to cause real harm, hindering your child's development.

Drawing on Eastern philosophy as well as Western psychology, Dr Shefali offers enlightened, practical advice and explains her radically transformative plan which guarantees that you have confident children and a calm and emotionally connected family.
