Reader reviews for The Conscious Parent: Transforming Ourselves, Empowering Our Children

From the publisher

*As seen on Oprah's Super Soul Sunday*

From the New York Times bestselling author and pioneer of the Conscious Parenting movement, Dr. Shefali Tsabary, with a Foreword by His Holiness the Dalai Lama

"This book gets to the heart of parenting." -- Eckhart Tolle


In a world overflowing with parenting advice, The Conscious Parent stands apart as a spiritual, emotional, and psychological breakthrough. Written by renowned clinical psychologist Dr. Shefali Tsabary, this bestselling parenting book redefines what it means to raise emotionally healthy, empowered children--by first turning the mirror inward.

Rooted in both Eastern mindfulness and Western psychology, this transformative approach invites parents to step beyond control-based discipline and quick-fix techniques. Instead, Dr. Shefali teaches how to develop conscious parenting skills that emphasize emotional intelligence, mutual respect, and deep parent-child connection.

Inside this seminal book that began the Conscious Parenting movement, you will discover how to:

  • Recognize your child as your greatest spiritual teacher
  • Heal your own emotional wounds and break generational cycles
  • Replace punishment with mindful communication and presence
  • Build an authentic, mutually empowering relationship with your child
  • Shift from a control-based to a connection-based parenting style
The Conscious Parent is more than a parenting book--it's a wake-up call. Dr. Shefali reveals how our children reflect back to us the parts of ourselves we've ignored, repressed, or forgotten. Through their presence, they offer us the invitation to return to wholeness, authenticity, and love.

Whether you're a first-time parent or a seasoned caregiver, The Conscious Parent will inspire you to release control, embrace transformation, and walk a new path--one where raising your children becomes the deepest journey back to your truest self.

About the author

Shefali Tsabary, PhD, received her doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Columbia University, New York. Dr. Shefali was exposed to Eastern mindfulness at an early age and integrates its teachings with Western psychology. This blend of East and West allows her to reach a global audience. Her ability to appeal to both a psychologically astute and consciousness-driven audience establishes her as one of a kind in the parenting field.

Dr. Shefali has worked with a varied demographic, ranging from survivors of the Asian Tsunami to Third World women, from inner city youth to suburban families, and from the elderly and infirm to corporate leaders.

Dr. Shefali lectures extensively on mindful living and conscious parenting around the world, and is in private practice. She is author of Out of Control, published in early 2014, as well as the book It's a Mom: What you should know about the early years of motherhood, which debuted on the Indian National Bestseller List for four weeks.

Dr Shefali was recently a guest on Oprah's Super Soul Sunday and Lifeclass television programs. In her introduction of the author and this book, Oprah stated that she has not been as excited about a book's philosophy as she is about this one since Eckhart Tolle's A New Earth.

This book hit #1 at Amazon and BN, and continues to remain in the top ten.
