Every child has their own unique path, their own purpose, and unique way in which their purpose is realized.
Human Design, first and foremost is for children. Children’s experience of the benefits of Human Design can be immediate, as well as long reaching, in the realization of their potential as 9-Centered humans. All of this depends upon the development and the ability of their parents to provide them with the necessary foundation for living out their uniqueness.
It is through the parent and their development, that the experiment of Human Design can be transmitted most effectively to the child. Therefore, it is essential for parents to have a strong foundation in their own experiment, as well as learn the practice of some essential tools in order to guide their children to their own unique experience of their life. The role of the Child Development Analyst is two-fold: to educate the parent; so that, the parent can then provide effective guidance for their child.
In this training program you will be provided with the essential aspects of working with parents and children: understanding the 9-Centered childhood and brain development, understanding the role of parents, and the care for the child’s unique body. How to support the emergence of strategy and authority, also recognition of openness and aura interaction, and parent-child communication dynamics through Human Design mechanics.
This is a certification course: for certification, each student will present a written or recorded Child Development Analysis as a final exam. Week by week, step by step, Leela will take you through each of the aspects of preparing and presenting a Child Development Analysis.
The course format consists of both weekly live class practice, discussion, and feedback for the student, and recorded lectures each week. The weekly experiments are related to the class topic, providing exercises using the student’s parent-child example to practice both the mechanics and art of working with parents and their children.
