Spirit, Mind & Body Parenting

Spirit, mind and body. We assume you've all heard this many times. There's a reason for this. Through-out history this has been spoken of because they do go hand in hand and complement each other. We are similar to the inner workings of a wristwatch, the intricacy and how all the parts need each other to properly function. The inner workings of a human and a wristwatch are very similar because we are multifaceted and require regular maintenance to function efficiently. Our spirit, mind and body all need to be properly maintained so we can function as our highest supraliminal selves, full of positive energy keeping us motivated through-out the rest of the summer.

Parenting in the summertime can come with many challenges. School is out, the kids are home all day and choices are being made by families. Some are scheduling vacations, summer camps, family reunions or summer school. Some children are happy staying home and playing with family and friends.

This is a beneficial time of the year to break away from day to day routines, connect with your children and reinforce your family’s spiritual tools and values. Any extra time a parent gets to spend with their child is irreplaceable. Treasure these priceless moments. Make the most of it!

Children are constantly absorbing their environment around them.
Whether you are on a family field trip at a local museum or taking a walk through the park, there is so much learning taking place. For instance, eighteen years ago our two families took our children to the local train station to witness the last trip of a very famous historical train as it made its final journey through Arizona before retiring to a museum. The cause and effect of this adventure is still spoken about by our grown children to this day. Going on explorations and field trips encourages children to use their imagination and to see the world from different points of view. Check your local newspaper for current events and family activities happening in your city.

Exposing your children to the arts and music field is like food for the soul. Their energy sky rockets from within and starts to bubble with ideas and visions of how they see the world at hand. The challenging part is to introduce them to all you can in this arena so they can find what they connect with or gravitate towards. They will let you know their likes and dislikes. Allow their individuality, sit back and watch them blossom.

Encourage your children to live outside the box. Demonstrate how to release stress and have fun by expressing themselves through a freedom dance. Have your children close their eyes and move their bodies to whatever feels natural to them. This is a harmonious way to connect to their inner selves.

By incorporating the use of daily affirmations you can help build your child’s self-esteem, instill confidence and build your child’s inner strength.
The discipline of taking control of our thoughts and shaping them with positive reinforcement can become a stupendous lifelong learning spiritual tool.

Have fun with this activity. Write affirmations with your children on poster board and place on bedroom walls. Place affirmations in your child’s lunch box. Write them on the bathroom mirror and say them out loud. We’ve even seen homes with affirmations painted on the living room walls. Have your child stand in front of a mirror and say; “I love myself”, “I love my body”, “I let my creativity flow” or “Studying comes easy to me.” Be creative and write affirmations that will benefit your children. Affirmations can be used to help create a sense of balance and Joy.

Cassandra's Angel Review And Live Chat Details!

Cassandra's Angel
Written By: Gina Otto
Illustrated By: Trudy Joost


Giveaway of an autographed copy of Cassandra's Angel including a 17 minute CD that shares the journey of Gina Otto and the story behind Cassandra's Angel will be given to a lucky chat participant. 


Parent's we are so excited to share with you our review of Cassandra's Angel. This beautiful children's picture book is a must have in your conscious parenting library. This children's book is a perfect tool for reinforcing and building a strong foundation.


Cassandra's Angel is more than an ordinary rhyming story. It is a movement that Gina Otto is sharing through-out the world to empower young girls to truly learn the value of their own inner light and how to shine it brightly with their heads held high. 



Cassandra's Angel teaches children not to get caught up in the perception of other people's thoughts of who they think you are. It teaches the reader how vital it is to walk your path, tell your story and shine your inner light.


Trudy Joost brings to life Cassandra's Angel with intricate impeccable vivid life like one of a kind illustrations.

Eating with Purpose ~ Heaven or Hell!!! By Dr. Nadine

Eating with Purpose ~ Heaven or HELL!!!

By NADINE N.D., C.N.S

Creating RESULTS Holistic Center

Hello Glorious ICP Reader, and a HAPPY, JOY-filled day to you. 

The intention of this somewhat short note is to introduce myself and to see if what I have to offer, is of value to you.  Should you find value, then send a LIKIE LIKIE to Carol and Stacy so that I can write more in the Eating with Purpose series.

First, let me introduce myself... I am NADINE, a one of a kind Naturopath and Holistic Nutrition Specialist who also happens to be  an Intuitive or Clairvoyant.  What does all that mean?  Well, to put it mildly, I 'see' things going on internally with a body and have the tools/skills and knowledge to assist with the HEALING process either Energetically/Spiritually or Physically via NUTRITION.

I believe everyone is at CHOICE, and No is a perfectly good answer.  With that in mind, if what I write is not for you, simply say Thank You and leave it for the person it IS meant for.  On the other hand, should you choose LIKIE LIKIE, I will then break the series into parts (suggestions are listed below)  This first issue will focus on the concept of:   Heaven or HELL!!!

Let's jump in!  Towards the end of a consultation I was having in a Starbucks the other day, my potential client says “I know this is off topic, but do you believe in Heaven or Hell??

WOW, talk about a conversation closer... or opener in this situation.  He gave me a perfect opening, which I will admit I grabbed onto with both hands and smacked it on the butt.  YES I believe in HELL!!  I also believe that WE CREATE that HELL.  Just looking around Starbucks I saw a group of kids under 12 drinking frozen Sugar and Caffeine loaded drinks topped with whip cream (aka more sugar). PLEASE TELL ME, because I truly want to know, WHAT KID NEEDS all that SUGAR???  What KID needs all that stimulation?  What KID can handle the adrenal gland overload?  What KID can handle having their immune system shut down?  Or having a complete short circuiting of their central nervous system?  Talk about HELL.

Next I gazed upon a group of women loading their bodies with enough complex carbohydrates and sugar to spin their Insulin levels and Hormones OFF THE FREEKIN CHARTS.  Have we mentioned HELL???  You ask a woman in the middle of a HOT Flash what Hell feels like.. I am sure she will tell you.  Or ask a young woman suffering from PMS so bad she is doubled over in pain; or suffers from endometriosis, cysts, fibroids, mood swings, etc.  THAT in my book IS HELL!!!  And it is all created by what we put IN our Mouth.  We made the CHOICE to eat the very thing that created the havoc within the body.

Just then I looked down at what my potential client was eating:  a Wheat bagel topped off with a 2” thick 'smear' of cream Cheese.  As a side note: the combination of Wheat + Dairy form a very Nasty Gluey Pasty SLUDGE in the digestive track.  I had a very strong feeling
this man was going to Feel HELL within the hour.

The human body is an incredible healing machine and when given the support it needs, will heal itself, since all healing comes from within.  NUTRITION is the KEY!!! that opens the gateway to your overall health and well-being.  Nutrition sheds light on the possible source of any imbalance, ailment or physical issue you might be experiencing.

We are at CHOICE.  We CHOOSE what we put in our bodies.  We Choose what we teach our children.  We Choose what we Model for our children.  I believe that if we can unconsciously create that kind of hell, we can CONSCIOUSLY create Heaven.  We are very Powerful Spiritual Beings.  To do the Spiritual work we came to do, we MUST be IN the physical body.  Eating nutrient dense foods will allow the body to settle down so the Soul can enter and integrate more fully (more on this later)

Review: Children's Spirit Animal Cards~Dr. Steven Farmer

Children's Spirit Animal Cards By: Dr. Steven Farmer with Jesseca Camacho. Published by Sitiama Publishing.

Anyone who reads our blog regularly knows how much we cherish our spiritual card decks and guidebooks.

We have utilized our decks for over twenty-five years and we add new ones as we feel drawn to a particular deck.

They come in all sorts of varieties.

These are just a few of our favorites. Dr. Steven Farmers Earth Magic Oracle Cards, Dr. Steven Farmer's Power Animal Card Deck, Doreen Virtue's Magical Messages From The Fairies, Doreen Virtue's Angel Therapy, Carolyn Myss Archetype Cards, Words Of Wisdom For Women Who Do To Much By Annie Wilsom Schaef, Kryon Oracle Cards, Abraham Hicks Money Cards and Neale Donald Walsh's Conversations With God Card Deck.

On any given day you can walk into either of our homes, as our friends do and pick a card. We have baskets and glass bowls throughout our homes with different card decks in them. Whether we are having an off day, challenging day, searching for answers or just for fun we will reach in and pull out a card.

Review: Kids Who See Ghosts By Caron B. Goode

Kids Who See Ghosts ~ How to Guide Them Through Fear by Caron B. Goode EdD, NCC

Is one of the most comprehensive books we've ever read on learning and teaching children and parents about the spirit world. 

Caron went out into the field to gather outstanding personal accounts from people and experts from all over the world. Kids Who See Ghosts is a gentle guide to hold a parents hand to having an open mind to the fact their children just may be really seeing a spirit or ghost.
