Raising Conscious Sons: The empowering guide to parenting boys in the modern world from the bestselling psychologist & founder of the Conscious Parenting Movement
About this audiobook
Boys today are growing up in a world that sends them deeply conflicting messages about what it means to be a man.
Be strong, but never domineering. Be sensitive, but never weak. Be confident, but don't take up too much space.
Caught between these competing expectations and shaped by a digital culture that rewards comparison, performance and disconnection many boys are struggling with anxiety, loneliness, emotional suppression and a loss of purpose.
In Raising Conscious Sons, clinical psychologist and bestselling author Dr Shefali Tsabary, founder of the Conscious Parenting movement, offers a radical new approach to raising boys who are emotionally secure, deeply connected to themselves and confident in who they are. Drawing on decades of clinical experience, real-life case studies, conversations with parents and children, and practical guidance, Dr Shefali shows parents how to help their sons:
- build emotional security and trust their inner selves
- develop confidence rooted in authenticity rather than dominance
- cultivate empathy, resilience, purpose and self-discipline
- resist limiting ideas of masculinity and become fully themselves
At a time when boys are searching for healthy models of manhood, Raising Conscious Sons offers parents the insight and practical tools to raise sons who are compassionate, grounded and resilient.
