Listen to Your Baby: Responding to Your Child’s Cues for Optimal Development and Joyful Connection

In the first and only book of its kind in the parenting and baby-care arena, internationally acclaimed parenting advice expert and bestselling author Naomi Aldort gives the power of knowing back to the parents so they can trust their own inner wisdom, and foster a nurturing relationship with their children. Including The Work of Byron Katie, the compassionate care approach offers a guiding light to parents.

Today’s parents are confused, not by a lack of information but too much information--too many theories by too many experts, which leaves them insecure and unsure of their abilities. Parents have become dependent on authority to know how to respond to their own baby or toddler to a frightening degree.

Listen to Your Baby is the antidote to this confusion. This revolutionary book teaches a self-inquiry that creates emotional freedom to be able to see the baby or toddler from an authentic and loving heart. To do so, readers learn to use The Work of Byron Katie in order to release stressful thoughts that abstract the ability to notice the child as he or she is and then be able to see the baby’s valid needs with clarity. The result is a peaceful connection, in which the child feels secure and naturally responds with care and inner peace of his or her own free will.

At the same time, the book also provides a wealth of commonsense solutions and ideas to consider, many of which break the common limiting and complicating narratives. Listen to Your Baby can create a breakthrough in building trust between parents and child and making parents see the obvious with ease.
