Description
In Simple Happy Parenting, Denaye Barahona, Ph.D., provides a revolutionary approach to parenting, full of practical tips to help you step back from the system overload so common in modern family life and, instead, create more time to enjoy living and learning together. From easier meal planning to mindful shopping, worry batching to waste reduction, Simple Happy Parenting is an honest and practical roadmap for all families striving for balance.
Start with the Simple Manifesto:
- Buy less.
- Fear less.
- Referee less.
- Hurry less.
- Entertain less.
Next, expand the simplicity to your mindset. Learn how letting go of fear provides children with valuable opportunities to grow and develop; positive discipline strategies strengthen family relationships; and inviting more unscheduled time in your calendar gives your family space to thrive.
Not only will these straightforward solutions allow your children the room to progress and flourish, this mindful approach to family life will provide you with more energy, calm, and joy.
Marketing Plan
Key selling points:
US-based author with a strong platform and great credentials. Denaye is a mom of two and child development expert.
Timely and on-trend book: minimalism, decluttering and slow-living have all taken off as concepts as part of a backlash against the increasing consumerism of the modern world.
