New Age Parenting Books To Inspire You 5 Daily Mom, Magazine For FamiliesEncouraging Your Child’s Spiritual Intelligence, by Mollie Painton, Psy.D., defines and discusses seven branches of spiritual intelligence on “The Spiritual Tree of Life” on which children can “rest.” Painton uses case studies of children, her patients, to exemplify the experiences of children on these seven branches. Painton maintains that many children are born spiritually gifted, but that Western culture tends to debunk or devalue a connection with the spiritual world, and so these gifts are often lost as children age. With the help of a spiritual partner, Painton believes that children can learn to access and trust their spiritual gifts, and speaks directly to parents: “My hope is that you, as spiritual partners, will validate your children’s remarkable wisdom and compassion while embracing their experiences, feelings, thoughts, and beliefs”.  For parents, the best part of the book is that Painton provides tests, tips and advice on how to support spiritually gifted children and help them further develop their gifts.
