Unlocking the Power of Human Design: Revolutionizing Parenting for a More Harmonious Home
Human Design, with it’s myriad of applications to our daily lives, and logical, streamlined way of elucidating our understanding of the self, can be lent to the realm of parenting in many, very eye opening ways.
We often think of ourselves and our understanding of and relationship with our kids in terms of what psychology or the most recent pop culture parenting books have to say. Those avenues can be one way to apply niche techniques and try different one-off approaches with our kids but one thing they don’t have is a personalized and differentiated look at your child’s very own unique make up to first 1) know them deeply and then 2) how to respond to and guide them towards their most aligned selves.
Furthermore, Human Design actually looks at the question of success and what that looks like for each individual. In our world of increasingly competitive late-stage capitalism, Human Design helps to debunk the myths around homogenized paths to success and looks at what your child’s own path to alignment with their design looks like instead. Nurturing them with knowledge of their Human Design in mind, you will be able to tailor your parenting approach to them specifically and not go by today’s societal standards of raising kids.
Through the information on this blog and sessions with me, you can learn their unique responses to pressures and stress, their overall energetic capacity, their way of processing their emotions, their relationship with their identity and their interests, the way their unique voice is expressed, and the way they take in ideas and conceptualize them.
And the benefit of starting them on this journey with Human Design young is that you will truly be nurturing them and not conditioning them. The layers of conditioning that we all take on in life are inescapable. But with the knowledge of one’s strategy and authority, another individualized tool, your child will be able to navigate the murky waters of societal and communal conditioning with a keen eye for what works for them, not what is the standardized norm.
The knowledge doesn’t just stop at your single child either, you may want to learn your own human design and each of your children’s siblings. Knowing this, you can get a look at how each person in your family creates the very influentially fertile dynamic of your family. Your whole family has an energetically unique quality and Human Design can open your eyes to ways that each person’s make up may condition or interact with each other’s.
Human Design isn’t a cure all and it isn’t child therapy however, in my blogs and in our sessions together, I can give you practical, solid advice for how to work with your child’s unique make up through the eyes of the Human Design lens.
What a way to care for your child: to learn so deeply about who they are that you then know how to individually parent them. Beginning at such a young age, your child will learn how to do life on their terms. Learning to follow societal standards and norms can be important. It builds the fabric of our communities, helps us get along with each other and build networks of connection. However, many of our norms and standards are designed by the majority’s tendency towards success or in ways that ensures our work place or school’s bottom line. This doesn’t leave much room for the uncommon way of doing things or the way that actually works best for us as individuals. So those norms and standards then just start seeming like the only way.
This is so not true and isn’t it not really the world we want for our little ones? A child should never be made to feel that their own unique way of doing things is unimportant or wrong. That is their natural way. It’s the job of the society to ask the question of how they might do something differently and then to embrace that. To create pathways to their success using their own unique methods of getting there. With Human Design you can do just that.
To know better is to do better and that is exactly the approach with Human Design. You are able to not only guide your child in thinking about things in a different way, but to give them the agency to choose how to do things in the way that feels most energetically aligned. When you give them the tools of knowing their strategy and their authority, you give them a way to listen to their bodies. Their bodies you might ask? Well some parts of a person’s design come from within, or a defined center, or fixed way of doing things, and some parts are undefined, where the techniques will be a mix of things. Helping your child know how to listen to these defined and undefined centers and approach life with the question of “is this the right invitation for me?” “is this my next initiation?,” or “is this a request I want to respond to?” depending on their type, will give them skills to be able to build their own unique world of self understanding. Your child will not only know themselves and but they’ll also have tools for integrating new information and new life experiences as they take in a myriad of influencing life lessons and grow along their journey to adulthood.
Human Design has the capacity to change your child’s and your family’s lives in deeply influential ways. I encourage you to visit the Jovian Archive and find out your child’s design by putting in their birth data to give you the basics of their chart and start exploring the articles I have here on my website to give you a picture of how to design your parenting approach in response to each of your child’s unique qualities.
