Port
Washington, NY, USA (January 22, 2015) -- Long Island resident,
Maria Gavriel, author of Love Centered Parenting will
be a special guest at a book signing and discussion hosted by The
Dolphin Bookshop in Port Washington, NY on March 12, 2015 from
6:30-8pm. (located at 299 Main Street)
"The
greatest expert on parenting is the parent, and the best support
group for raising a child is community."
That
is the key message given by author Maria Gavriel in Love
Centered Parenting: Contributing to Your Child's Wellness by Living
From The Heart and Cultivating Your Inner Wisdom (ISBN
978-1-45252-336-1, Balboa Publishing, 2014, $14.99, 190 pages,
http://www.LoveCenteredParenting.com).
Part
memoir and part parenting guide, Love Centered Parenting
challenges parents to learn how to turn up the volume of their inner
voice and rely on intuition and inner knowledge when deciding what is
best for their child.
This
top seller teaches parents how to wholly parent their children on a
mental, emotional, physical and spiritual level. It empowers parents
to listen to their intuition and reach out to a supportive community
when making tough decisions.
Gavriel
details her own parenting journey and how she embraced a holistic
approach to raising her children. The author opens her book with a
candid account of fertility challenges, pregnancy and birth while
addressing common concerns such as diet and natural healing. Gavriel
encourages all parents to listen to their intuition, whether or not
they choose a holistic approach.
In
Love Centered Parenting Gavriel relies heavily on her
professional research skills as a paralegal for more than a decade to
address such important issues as:
• The
commercialization of children
• The
harm done by media on child development
• The
addictive effects of sugar on the child's brain
• The
risks of vaccinating children
• How
to make your life free of toxins
"The
true and best answers to the challenges of raising a child cannot be
found on the internet or from the advice of doctors, counselors,
child development experts but are readily available for parents who
learn to listen to their inner knowledge and rely on their
intuition," stresses Gavriel. "Ultimately there is no
single correct way to parent but a conscious, intuitive way unique to
each parent and family. There is no one size fits all so we simply
must align with what is right for us."
Parents
often feel lost and ambivalent when it comes to raising their
children - whether they are a first time parent, or raising their
first teenager, adds Gavriel, but parents who understand that they
are innately capable of guiding their children will eventually trust
themselves to parent from a place of wisdom.
The
findings in Love Centered Parenting are based on 10
years of the author's meticulous research via books, articles,
medical research, internet resources, personal experience, community
experience, and conferences, seminars and summits attended.
Kim
John Payne, M.Ed. and author of two parenting books, says of Gavriel:
"Maria's path of discovery has achieved something very rare and
precious. That she has been willing to share her wisdom with us is a
priceless gift."
More
accolades for Love Centered Parenting come from Grady Harp, a Top 100
Amazon Hall of Fame Reviewer who says, "Maria Gavriel could very
well become the now generation's Dr Spock - and that is meant in the
most laudatory way. This book is not only about parenting: this book
is about life and the way we all should be living it."
The
book signing and discussion with Maria Gavriel is scheduled for March
12, 2015 from 6:30-8pm.
