The Most Famous Words of Love That We Can Live By

Love is Patient, Love is Kind…

I was recently at a funeral of a well-respected psychologist, who dedicated most of her career to troubled youth. At her beautiful service, the minister read these famous words on love which we usually hear at weddings. I realized that these are words we should also remind ourselves of on a daily basis and especially on our parenting journey. Children thrive on love. Whether we have any religious or spiritual beliefs, or not, I believe these are words we should all try to live by. As we celebrate Valentine’s Day today, it seems fitting to bring these words into our awareness. I’ve also created a Love is Patient heart image (pdf), if you would like to download a copy as a visual reminder.

Happy Valentine’s Day to you and your loved ones,

Warmly,

Sharon, you really helped us when we were all trying our best but not understanding how to help ourselves or what was really happening with our son’s anxiety. I have never been so relieved and thankful for the support and help you gave to our son, and to our family. We learned so much through that and will maintain our awareness and personal growth. We will think of you often and look forward to keeping in touch through your weekly emails and blog, too.

I just wanted to let you know that both times that my daughter has left your sessions, she is literally floating on a cloud of excitement and positive energy. We always go for a snack and drink afterward and I can feel the buzz of excitement radiating from her. She says you are ‘so, so nice’ repeatedly and today said that she considers you a ‘trusted adult in her life that she is lucky to have’. She has taken complete ownership of this process and feels she is making good choices in spending time with you and learning about herself. Obviously, she has connected with you in the way I thought and hoped she would. I feel that such great, positive changes are on the way for her. I wanted to sincerely thank you. I share her excitement for what the future will bring for her.

Alcuin College approached Sharon Selby to present on the topic of building resilience in our children. We wanted to have our parents better understand how to support their children as they transition into independent learners. Sharon has a wealth of knowledge that she translates into practical techniques parents can depend on to help their children through the inherent challenges of childhood. She shares how to create an environment that facilitates connection between you and your child along with opportunities to build the skills necessary to independently regulate emotions and problem solve. I would highly recommend Sharon Selby for any organization hoping to build a better understanding in the areas of self-regulation, resilience, and child anxiety. Her presentation is an informative, concrete hour that will impact how you view the realities of childhood today and the tools that you can use to reduce their negative impact.
