Episode 27: Natural Learning with Naomi Aldort

In this episode I share the second part of an interview with Naomi Aldort. Naomi is the author of Raising our Children, Raising Ourselves, which has been translated into 20 languages. She provides support and education for parents from around the world in sessions, workshops, web classes, lectures and running private intensive retreats. Please note that this episode is not about Aware Parenting but about Naomi’s approach to parenting and homeschooling. In this episode Naomi shares her experiences of homeschooling her 3 children. We discuss how natural learning with our children supports them to use their own creativity and innovation, unique to each individual child. She describes the difference between children being taught and children learning for themselves and how this supports more creativity, skill, invention, problem solving and resourcefulness. We talk about trusting our children’s inner path to support them to stay connected with their intrinsic motivation and authenticity. Please note this episode is not specifically about Aware Parenting.
