Right from the very beginning one is asked gently to set up a quiet space for oneself to read and digest the information provided in this guide. This might sound obvious, but for me it was actually a very important reminder to honour one¿s own time and to allow oneself the space to read and ponder the information. I felt quite excited just setting myself up in a quiet corner with a pen and a piece of paper! There are thought provoking questions and experiential exercises asked at relevant intervals throughout the guide, and this in part contributes to making this book more than just a guide ¿ it is a process, and a very interesting and worthwhile one.The guide is divided into five modules (set aside approximately an hour per module), and Module One begins by looking at parenting in the 21 st  century, and moment by moment parenting.We as parents can often feel overwhelmed by the plethora of technological information that is in this current age so easily available to us. Although this input can be stressful, it is important to remember that this availability of information also provides a huge opportunity for us to learn and grow because there is so much knowledge at our fingertips! This opens up worlds of possibilities. In this section, Helen speaks of energy and perception ¿ two concepts the understanding of which is vitally important to guiding our children and fulfilling our roles as their parents. Parenting is not a simple term, but a growth process.Parenting is also a moment by moment process, and this is where quietness and intuition come into play. Listening to one¿s inner voice is an integral part of successful parenting ¿ it is this voice that can often show us the way, and we need to learn to listen to it. We all have it! A balanced lifestyle in all aspects including nutrition, intake of water, exercise, me time, rest, self-growth, and time spent outdoors is necessary to be able to function optimally. Once we examine these aspects, change may be necessary to bring about balance.Through this guide, and particularly through the questions and exercises posed after each module, I learned a lot about myself (I had to dig deep sometimes!). And I was reminded of how important it is to be in a strong and grounded place as a parent, so that we can act as inspirational guides to our children. This guide undoubtedly opens trains of thought that I am finding to be incredibly useful in dealing with my own family. There is a wealth of information in this guide. I would highly recommend Helen¿s Inspirational Guide to Parenting to anyone willing to open their hearts to change for the better, for themselves and their families. By Janet Neilson
