  1. Eat mainly organic\/biodynamic foods and a balanced diet. Avoid processed foods and pharmaceutical drugs. Eat healthy fats, such as coconut, olive oil and butter from grass fed animals.<\/li>\n
  2. Provide a beautiful environment, natural materials and simplicity.<\/li>\n
  3. Avoid electronics when you can and too many modern devices. Turn out the lights.<\/li>\n
  4. Spend time outdoors, enjoying Nature.<\/li>\n
  5. Practice positive values, thankfulness, reverence, awe and wonder.<\/li>\n
  6. Cultivate your Spiritual life with prayers, blessings, contemplation, arts and meditation. Acting as a Role Model is the best teacher for young children.<\/li>\n
  7. Provide protection. Choose outings in the world carefully.<\/li>\n
  8. Keep your child warm with natural fibers.<\/li>\n
  9. Touch and hug a great deal.<\/li>\n
  10. Rock, sing and soothe on a regular basis.<\/li>\n
  11. Give images of angels who guide and protect, soothe and nurture.<\/li>\n
  12. Discover the essentials and discard\/ avoid the rest.<\/li>\n
  13. Review the day, simply forwards or backwards. Tell meaningful stories.<\/li>\n
  14. Create a ritual which honors sleep as a holy activity spent in our Spiritual homeland receiving rejuvenation and inspiration.<\/li>\n
  15. Value the threshold times of sleeping and waking as holy times when you can deeply connect with your child.<\/li>\n
  16. Create an inner picture of the next day for your child every evening. Angels will then give you input in your sleep.<\/li>\n
  17. Cultivate quiet listening.<\/li>\n
  18. Allow your child to imitate what you want them to do rather than give them instructions. This is called non- verbal education. Take care not to overintellectualize with your child.<\/li>\n
  19. Observe your child, reflect on this and ask the Angels for guidance.<\/li>\n
  20. Establish a rhythmic daily practice of sleeping, eating and daily. This supports the organs and the production of hormones and melatonin which promotes sleep and health.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \n

      \n
    1. Poor quality of food. It does not support the Life Force and Sense of Life necessary for sleep.<\/li>\n
    2. Media such as television, movies, computers, pads, etc. creates doubt, worry and fear through characterizations which are untruthful, ugly and fabrications. The quality of the tones are not life enhancing.<\/li>\n
    3. Movement deprivation has a damaging effect on the nervous system.<\/li>\n
    4. Pollution negatively impacts the body and sensory experience.<\/li>\n
    5. Negative thoughts alienate the self from the Spiritual World.<\/li>\n
    6. Overintellectualization overstimulates the nervous system in a negative way.<\/li>\n
    7. Hardened overly materialistic thoughts incarnates the human being too deeply into the body.<\/li>\n
    8. An arrhythmic life does not guide the organs into a healthy function.<\/li>\n
    9. Overstimulation locks the self into the physical body and does not promote the soul and spirit entering the spiritual realities of the night.<\/li>\n
    10. An overly electric and technological environment overstimulates the nerves which interferes with sleep.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
