Resetting as a Family: Empowering Our Children and Embracing Change
In the journey of personal growth and transformation, the concept of an energetic reset can be profoundly powerful. But this journey doesn't have to be solitary. As parents, we have the unique opportunity to create a family culture that embraces growth, empowers our children, and fosters an environment of love and acceptance. By pushing the 'reset button' as a family, we can collectively shed old patterns and step into a more connected, evolved version of ourselves.
Why Reset as a Family?
- Strengthening Bonds: When families reset together, they strengthen their bonds. The process of transformation becomes a shared experience, deepening connections and understanding between family members.
- Modeling Growth: Children learn by example. When they see their parents embracing change and growth, they are more likely to adopt a similar mindset. This empowers them to be resilient, adaptable, and open to new experiences.
- Creating a Supportive Environment: A family reset creates a supportive environment where every member feels valued and understood. This nurturing space encourages open communication, empathy, and mutual respect.
Steps to Create a Family Reset
- Open Dialogue: Start by having an open and honest conversation with your family. Discuss the concept of an energetic reset and why it’s important. Share your intentions and encourage each family member to express their thoughts and feelings.
- Set Collective Intentions: As a family, set collective intentions. What do you hope to achieve with this reset? It could be fostering better communication, creating more quality time together, or supporting each other's individual goals.
- Identify Old Patterns: Together, identify old patterns or habits that are no longer serving the family. This could include negative communication styles, excessive screen time, or lack of quality time spent together.
- Release and Let Go: Create a ritual to release these old patterns. This could be as simple as writing them down on paper and tearing it up, or having a family meeting where everyone shares what they’re letting go of.
- Embrace New Practices: Introduce new practices that align with your family’s intentions. This could be a weekly family game night, daily gratitude sharing, or regular outdoor activities. Ensure these practices are fun and engaging for everyone.
- Celebrate Progress: Regularly celebrate your family’s progress. Acknowledge the small victories and the positive changes you’ve made together. This reinforces the new patterns and keeps everyone motivated.
Empowering Our Children
- Encourage Self-Expression: Create a safe space for your children to express themselves. Encourage them to share their thoughts, feelings, and ideas without fear of judgment. This builds their confidence and self-worth.
- Validate Their Experiences: Listen actively to your children and validate their experiences. Show empathy and understanding, letting them know their feelings are important and valued.
- Teach Resilience: Help your children develop resilience by teaching them how to navigate challenges and setbacks. Share stories of your own experiences and how you overcame difficulties.
- Foster Independence: Encourage your children to take on responsibilities and make decisions. This empowers them to be independent and capable, preparing them for future challenges.
- Celebrate Their Unique Talents: Recognize and celebrate your children’s unique talents and interests. Support them in pursuing their passions, and show pride in their achievements.
Embracing Change as a Family
Change can be challenging, but it is also an opportunity for growth and renewal. By pushing the reset button as a family, you create a nurturing environment that supports each member’s journey towards becoming their best selves. Embrace this journey with love, patience, and open hearts.
Conclusion
Resetting as a family is a powerful way to foster growth, strengthen bonds, and empower our children. By collectively shedding old patterns and embracing new, positive practices, we create a supportive and nurturing environment where everyone can thrive. Let’s embark on this journey together, and watch our family transform into a more connected, loving, and empowered unit.

I want to add some personal reflection here to this blog. My husband and I have decided that a reset is important for our family unit. I am thinking about sharing that journey here, and with others to help them become empowered to make choices within their own fmailies that can help bring forth the best of everyones experience in this lifetime.
As parents we are not here to be our childrens controllers. We are here to help guide them into becoming their highest versions. Being the beautiful Souls they are deep inside. We do not do that if we are forcing them to be or act in ways that are not truly them.
Does that mean we stand back and let them do whatever they want? In some cases, yes. That is exactly what it means. Allowing them to make their own choices, their own mistakes, and follow their own heart. What a gift to bestow upon the children of the future! A golden chance to be themselves and follow their heart.
Our journey is starting here. Our journey is always evolving. Our journey is truly remarkable and I love that my Soul chose to be here and do this with this incredible group of little Soul's.
We have decided that getting back into nature is important, and reestablishing the connection we have with the Earth. This is important. This is essesntial to a healthy and connected life. This is where we have chosen to start our reset. With a tent and a good vibe! <3 Come on Summer!
