Your Child Feeds Off Your Energy — What Are You Modeling?
Hi !
I feel like you have heard this from me several times before:
The energy right now is intense.
At least for the
next coming weeks, will continue to be.
That is because we are now in an eclipse portal, which officially started yesterday with the Lunar Eclipse, seen mostly in Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia.
There is a Partial Solar Eclipse on September 21, which is why this is a window between the two.
Even if you didn't see the lunar one, you are in the ripple effect of the energy.
Eclipse windows always bring some chaos and instability into our lives and the world in general.
While this may sound unpleasant, this is a great chance for us all to operate from a higher frequency, with less fear.
As with any evolution, there has to be awareness of what is not working for us.
And yes, that can be difficult to face.
It's not easy to see and accept those less than desirable parts of you.
Shifting the emotional intensity of the past to one of neutrality and self-forgiveness almost always comes with bringing up certain memories of your past.
It can feel destabilizing.
But, you can surf those waves with more balance just by being more aware in the moment of what is coming up and that this window will magnify aspects of your life that are ready to change.
Children are fantastic mirrors to help us see what we can work on, if we're willing to look and understand they are not simply being difficult.
They are a reflection of their environments, which includes the people
they're most connected to at home of course.
Children feed off the energy they're around the most.
The stronger and healthier connection your child has with you, the more
resilient and confident they are in what they do.
The less you operate from a place based in fear- resentment, anger, guilt, shame, etc., the more you can benefit yourself and your child.
That’s why this eclipse window is such a powerful opportunity.
It’s inviting you, as a parent, to let go of what no longer serves you:
the fear
the pressure
the expectations...
and to step into a way of showing up that truly strengthens your child from the inside out.
Resilience isn’t built when everything is smooth.
It’s built in these moments of instability, when you model and balance out:
being calm and firm
structure with flexibility
presence and patience
When you do, your child learns that no matter how chaotic life (or sport) gets, they have the inner strength to navigate it.
Remember, how you show up for your child is a direct line as to how they will show up
in life.
That’s the heart of Raising Resilient Athletes — supporting you in becoming the steady, conscious presence your child needs, both on and off the field.
