HOLISTIC KIDS AND PARENTS
Q& A
WITH JEAN SHEEHAN, Principal – Millennium Education
Millennium Children
Q: My children and I are fighting about their career. I was told that if I had a problem with my children it is actually me. How can that be? A: I receive this comment so often from parents and teachers. Yes there is a mirror image! This relates to quantum physics and the law of attraction. We have forgotten an innate wisdom that we are a hologram of everything and everyone. What we like or dislike in others is within us. We are all one. We are not separate and therefore cannot be separated or segregated. It comes back to basic science and mathematics; the way you see someone, something or an experience is perception only. It is seen the way you are at the present moment. As Einstein said “Imagination leads to reality. We are boxed in by the boundary conditions of our thinking.” Your perception of the outside world is really of yourself. Christine had grown up to
believe success was money, possessions and status from her father and she mirrored his belief to be accepted by him. Christine worked in the corporate world which was stressful, demanding with high expectations. She did not realise that she was creating the same for her two daughters, 15 and 19 years old. She was repulsed at her daughters attitudes of ‘whatever’ and ‘I don’t care’. She was defining their relaxed attitude and approach to life as lazy, failure and useless, especially as both of them wanted a career in sport and to raise children. Life is filled with illusions. The illusion is who is Christine really fighting with – her daughters or herself? By defining someone or something to a set being, limits them and you. In this case Christine was defining her children’s choices as failure. She was not aware that she felt like a failure and her heart’s desire was to work as a personal trainer.
Once Christine had this awareness she saw she was fighting with herself and core innate ability. Her daughters were her mirror image. If there is anything we wish to change in the child, we should first examine it and see whether it is not something that could be better to be changed in ourselves. When we see it outside ourselves, the first response is ‘thank you’ and then be open hearted to what the lesson is. Ultimately the universe has gifted all situations as learning lessons. You will have the opportunity to self realise your own lesson and answer. When we have no limits or expectations, the result is no disappointment. There is only peace and harmony. We are innate beings of infinite energy. We are absolute love. Do you have a question for Jean about your child or teenager? Email: jsheehan@absoluteempowerment.com
