Here is the info about the conscious parenting summit I received from Matt Monarch and Angela Stokes-Monarch
Greetings, Divine Dancer of the Light :)
People say that I am an "extremist", because of my strict 100% Raw Food D!et, how I raise my child through natural means, my dedication and focus toward anything I put my attention to, and so on.
I personally don't see any of this as being an "extremist". From my perspective I just see myself setting the "new norm" for Oria to witness.
Angela and I wanted to do everything in our power to help everyone (ourselves very much included) to further understand the importance and practical know-how of all the aspects of conscious birthing and parenting. We feel that how we raise this next generation has the biggest potential to impact the conscious evolution of our species in the most positive way.
So, we created the free Conscious Parenting Summit event, starting soon, which you can sign up for at the link below:

What is the Conscious Parenting Summit?
We interviewed 16 of the foremost conscious parenting experts in the world. Starting this May 22nd, we will air a different one of these interviews daily, for free, for 16 days.

We feel that the main reason why we had such a peaceful birth and why Oria is as healthy and happy as she is, is due to the amazing information shared by the speakers who are appearing in this Summit.
It was Ingrid Bauer's book that enabled us to understand how to raise Oria Diaper Free, for example. It was Laura Shanley's book that gave us the confidence to do an unassisted birth without any hospitals, midwifes or doulas. It was Shazzie's book which gave us the information on getting specific and key nutrients for Oria's growth such as DHA and choline for brain development. It was Elena Vladirimova who taught us how to clean up and transmute any dramas from our own birthing experiences. Naomi Aldort's book taught us how to communicate and cooperate with our child after she was born, and the list goes on and on.
You can only imagine how excited we were to be able to interview each one of these amazing people! In each one of these interviews, we asked the most important questions that we believe you'd love to know the answers to as well.
