CONSCIOUS PARENTING Jake’s Story
by Sherry Anshara
today’s society, a product of a not-too- kindly divorce. “Not too kindly” is a nice way of putting the tremendous trauma drama Jake and children like him face when parents are in a bitter divorce of the “he said, she said” syn- drome. Like other children at whatev- er age or stage they are at during the divorce, 18 months old brings with it the obstacles of not just the exchange of residences, clothes and toys, but diapers, bottles and more in between parenting experiences. Jake’s mother in her own journey knew in her heart that the turmoil of her relationship with her ex-husband had to change. She understood that whether he changed or not, show- ing Jake a different scenario from the usual “caught in the middle” of two fi ghting parents just didn’t appear as a viable option for this conscious and loving baby boy. At this young stage of his life,

Jake’s mother made a choice to be fully engaged with him. She talked with him eye to eye, never looking down at him. She taught him to live through his heart and express his feel- ings. Because of Jake’s ability to look directly into a person’s eyes and speak from his heart with everyone includ- ing his parents, one feels the connec- tion he is consciously making. Jake was also taught from 18
months old how his energy and how his energetic fi eld connect to every- one. In the early stages of his parents’ divorce, he worried about the “parent in the other house” while visiting the other parent. To connect, his mother taught him what she had learned in courses at the QuantumPathic Center,

hen Jake was 18 months old, he was living in a situation not unlike many children in
that through his bands of energy from his heart, he would always be con- nected to each parent’s heart no mat- ter where he was. At 24 months old Jake called these connecting bands of energy the “tingly winglys.” This helped Jake to not feel abandoned or think he was being left behind by the other parent. He would always be connected to those he loved wherever they lived. His bands of connection were housed in his heart. He learned to communicate
effectively, not only through his energy but through his words. When life gets stressful at times, he knows he can speak his truth, especially to his parents. This open communica- tion enables his parents to listen at a deeper level of awareness to him. Tak- ing the lead from Jake, they are able to productively communicate with each other. All three understand there is no need to waste relationship time with the turmoil of the trauma dramas. They communicate with each other for the benefi t of Jake and themselves. This makes life so much easier. Jake is a vibrant boy, living his life to the fullest with a bright future as he evolves. To date he has acquired a stepmother, stepbrother, and a new little half brother. When the new baby came, Jake realized that he was no longer his daddy’s baby boy. He would have to share some of the spot- light. Although he loves his new baby brother, something was not quite right. Jake started experiencing tummy and throat problems. He was taught that it is okay to express his feelings to his parents. He clearly understands how the physical connections of his tummy and throat issues were some- how related to his emotions. He was feeling left out of the new family dy-
namics. He wanted some alone daddy time without the baby. His ability to express himself made the difference. He didn’t have to hold his emo-
tions in. The minute he told his father how he was feeling, Jake’s emotional and physical problems were solved. With a resolution, there are no long- term behavioral problems, or emo- tional patterns of being abandoned or left out. Jake’s clear ability to openly communicate positively infl uences his parents’ ability to do the same with each other. They have lots of years ahead of them parenting Jake from separate households. They understand that by working together instead of against one another that all of them have a much better chance for success in their relationships. They co-parent consciously as Jake co-relationships with them. There is a saying that we create
everything in our lives. Jake gets an A- plus for bringing his divorced parents together, incorporating an extended family, and connecting everyone together. Jake, one of the new kids on the block, knows love is the only way. Jake at fi ve years old now is one kid who is defi nitely making a difference.
