But Who Prepares Children for LIVING LIFE?

Children should also learn about their sacredness, fear-based vs. love-based living, removing self-limiting beliefs and living with mindfulness

Without this knowledge children suffer in many ways

The effects are already obvious....

Rising ADHD in Kids

  • 14% of all boys, ages 3 - 17
  • 6% of all girls, ages 3 - 17

25.1% of all US teens ages 13 - 18 have one or more forms of anxiety disorder

Nearly 10% of kids are addicted to video games

Drugs, suicide, teen pregnancy

Even if kids escape ADD, bullying, anxiety,violence etc. they are unable to deal with ups and downs and make sense of life...

And feel lost without a sense of connection and belonging

Wondering how to deal with ups and downs:
failure, loss, rejection, disrespect of boundaries

Wounded Child's World View:

  • World is not a safe place
  • It's a dog-eat-dog world
  • If you don't win you are a loser
  • Is this all that life can be???

So what is Soul Science?

How Does It Help Practically?

Soul Science is the knowledge of universal laws that are the basis of all creation. It is the parental science from which all science stems.

The knowledge of Soul Science develops self-awareness, empathy and equanimity to enable the child to live an empowered life

Children gain precious skills: Mindfulness, Awareness of Thoughts, Feelings, Behaviors and Self-responsibility

Children become CALM, CENTERED, with Inner Confidence and able to navigate life and its challenges

A Different Child is Born!

  • Knowledge of one's unique essence
  • Compassion for Self and others
  • Inter-connectedness of all beings
  • A spirit of gratitude
  • Doing the 'right thing' becomes natural

Children learn to trust themselves and trust life

Soul Science gives meaning to life
