Fun Fact
This volume shines in its dedicated focus on practical, spiritual solutions for parents of sensitive children. It offers concrete, actionable 'games' and techniques that move beyond mere behavior management, providing a refreshing energetic framework.

Nevertheless, it carves out a distinct and much-needed niche, offering genuine empowerment and a path to deeper understanding for families navigating the unique journey of raising 'children of spirit'.

📝 Description: Empowering Your Indigo Child: A Handbook for Parents of Children of Spirit

Since the 1980s people have been writing about the indigo children. Today, many believe that nearly 80 percent of all children born are indigos. These are exceedingly creative, high-energy, perceptive kids who often don't fit in. They seem to have an awareness that is light years beyond their age and quite often they are labeled as ADD, ADHD, or ODD when in actuality they are, in the words of the Dosicks, simply "children of spirit." What sets this book apart from other books is that it approaches the issues facing indigos on a spiritual-energetic rather than purely cognitive level, and it is prescriptive, teaching a specially developed set of games that can help heal indigo children both in their own bodies and in their earthly relationships. Here the Dosicks name seventeen particular emotional wounds indigos hold in their bodies and give specific exercises for healing each one. The games have proven enormously helpful to these often-troubled kids--even preteens and teenagers. They celebrate the children's different ways of perception and calm their agitation. The games involve some hands-on healing techniques, some scripted meditations, and other quick and simple techniques. Each game takes no more than two minutes to play, and this book features 101 black-and-white photographs showing parents exactly how to use the practices.

Esoterica Books editorial team
Occult literature desk
While this book provides a comforting framework for sensitive parents, it is not suitable for those seeking evidence-based, clinical psychological advice or scientific explanations for behavioral disorders. Readers who prefer strict cognitive-behavioral approaches may find the spiritual-energetic focus ungrounded or lacking in empirical rigor. Additionally, individuals skeptical of metaphysical concepts regarding 'children of spirit' might dismiss the core premise entirely. However, for its intended audience, it offers a valuable alternative perspective that validates parental intuition and emotional connection over traditional diagnostic labels.

❓ Frequently asked questions

The authors describe Indigo Children as highly creative, exceptionally energetic, and perceptive individuals with an awareness far beyond their years. They often struggle to fit into conventional systems and may be mislabeled with conditions like ADD or ADHD, but are fundamentally 'children of spirit'.
Unlike books that focus purely on cognitive or behavioral strategies, this guide takes a unique spiritual-energetic perspective. It identifies specific emotional 'wounds' and offers a practical, prescriptive set of games and techniques designed to heal these at a deeper, energetic level.

📖 Who should read this

This book is essential for parents feeling bewildered by their child's intense sensitivity, unique perceptions, or challenging behaviors. If you've explored conventional avenues without success and are open to a spiritual, energetic understanding of your child's needs, this guide offers profound insights and practical, healing solutions.

🎯 Key themes and symbolism

Redefining Childhood Behavior

The book challenges traditional diagnostic labels, suggesting that behaviors often considered problematic are, in fact, manifestations of a child's advanced spiritual awareness. It encourages parents to view their children's intensity and unique traits not as disorders, but as indicators of a deeper, energetic blueprint requiring a different kind of nurturing and understanding.

Energetic Healing Practices

At its core, this work introduces a prescriptive set of 'games' and simple techniques. These are designed to heal specific emotional wounds on a spiritual and energetic level, rather than just a cognitive one. Practices include gentle hands-on healing, guided meditations, and other quick, effective methods to calm agitation and celebrate a child's unique perceptions.

Empowering Parental Guidance

Parents are given a practical toolkit to support their spiritually gifted children. The book outlines clear steps to identify and address emotional imbalances, providing concrete exercises that can be easily integrated into daily life. This empowers caregivers to actively participate in their child's energetic well-being and foster a more empathetic home environment.

📜 Historical context

The concept of 'Indigo Children' emerged in the New Age movement of the 1980s, describing a generation believed to possess unique psychological, spiritual, and often psychic attributes. This work by the Dosicks stands within this tradition, offering a prescriptive and therapeutic approach that distinguishes itself by focusing on spiritual-energetic healing, providing concrete methods for parents navigating this evolving understanding of childhood.

📔 Questions to reflect on

  1. Consider a challenging behavior in your child. How might viewing it through a 'spiritual awareness' lens change your perspective and emotional response?
  2. Reflect on the concept of 'emotional wounds.' Do you recognize any such energetic imprints within yourself or your family dynamic that might resonate with your child's sensitivities?
  3. Imagine implementing one of the book's 'games' for healing. What specific changes do you hope to see, and how might this shift your family's energetic interactions?
