Connectedness to Your Child: Building Stronger Relationships Through the Three Principles
One of the most rewarding aspects of parenting is the deep connection we feel with our children. But as life gets busy and challenges arise, it’s easy to feel disconnected. Through the understanding of the Three Principles—Mind, Thought, and Consciousness—we learn that connectedness to our children doesn’t come from managing their behavior or controlling outcomes, but from being fully present and understanding the role of thought in shaping our experience.
Thought and Connectedness
Our experience of connection with our children is shaped by the thoughts we have in the moment. When we are present with them, our minds are less cluttered with thoughts about what needs to be done or how things should be. This allows us to fully engage with our children and connect on a deeper level. The Three Principles show us that connectedness is always available to us when we let go of the noise of thought and focus on the moment.
Consciousness: Expanding Awareness of Our Connection
Consciousness helps us become aware of when we are truly connected to our children and when we are distracted by our own thoughts. By becoming more conscious of our thinking, we gain the ability to bring our full attention to our children and strengthen our relationship with them. This expanded awareness helps us see that connection doesn’t come from controlling our children or their behavior—it comes from being fully present with them.
Mind: Trusting in the Natural Flow of Connection
The deeper intelligence of Mind provides us with the wisdom to connect with our children in meaningful ways. When we trust in this wisdom, we stop trying to force connection or make things happen a certain way. Instead, we allow the relationship to grow naturally, knowing that connection is always available when we trust in the deeper flow of life. This creates more space for love, understanding, and a deeper bond with our children.
Conclusion
Connectedness to your child comes from being present and understanding the role of thought in shaping your experience. By becoming more aware of your thinking and trusting in the wisdom of Mind, you can build stronger, more meaningful relationships with your children.
