At the cornerstone is The Wheel of Awareness, a simple yet profound visual map of the mind, which enables people, including children, to experience of presence, self knowledge, and compassion. Aware will awaken and enrich your life immeasurably!

No Time Like the PresentPraise for The Power of Showing Up:
Daniel Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson have written their best book yet and that is saying a lot. They have distilled their parenting wisdom based on neuroscience research and a deep empathy for childrens needs into a profound concept: showing up. It is one of those great ideas that seems so obvious but only after someone has shown it to you and spelled it out clearly. Best of all, Siegel and Bryson show up for the reader of this book. They know parents, know their fears and anxieties, hopes and dreams. They know that showing up for children is harder than it sounds, and they provide an accessible path to seeing and soothing children and providing them with safety and security.
