About the Author
Dr. Shefali has worked with a varied demographic, ranging from survivors of the Asian Tsunami to Third World women, from inner city youth to suburban families, and from the elderly and infirm to corporate leaders.
Dr. Shefali lectures extensively on mindful living and conscious parenting around the world, and is in private practice. She is author of Out of Control, published in early 2014, as well as the book It's a Mom: What you should know about the early years of motherhood, which debuted on the Indian National Bestseller List for four weeks.
Dr Shefali was recently a guest on Oprah's Super Soul Sunday and Lifeclass television programs. In her introduction of the author and this book, Oprah stated that she has not been as excited about a book's philosophy as she is about this one since Eckhart Tolle's A New Earth.
This book hit #1 at Amazon and BN, and continues to remain in the top ten.

The basic principle of the book in a nut shell is - in-order to parent well, you must act towards your child from a place of consciousness and to do that you your self must be conscious.
Now to understand what that truly means one needs to have done some spiritual exploration already, so this book is sadly not for the masses. Even though I am very familiar with the principles of consciousness, it is still a daily practise to achieve. It's hard work!
From a contextual perspective, the book is very full, there is lots of information and it has a lot of layers and depth. It is well written, good use of vocabulary, but not in an overbearing way, I learnt quite a few new words which is always nice.
If you understand and believe in the concept of Consciousness, you will unlikely be disappointed.


I have now begun reading The Awakened Family and already I’m excited and uplifted by what I’m reading. These books offer the stripped back essence of parenting, the fundamental values of what it means to be in service to our children, and also the immensity of that responsibility. If you know in your heart that your children are your equal, that they are here to teach you something profound, and that your hearts desire is to do the best thing for them
Spiritually, then this is your book.
