Hi, my name is Melinda Asztalos and I would like to welcome you to Life Positive by Design.

When my daughter was born and my parenting journey began, I believed that I was well equipped to face the challenges that lay ahead. I was in for quite a surprise. I quickly realized that I had no real “training” for the most important experience in my life. I was now responsible for the physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual well being of a brand new life.

With so much available information and different approaches to parenting, I became lost within an ocean of advice. It wasn’t until I decided to turn to my own inner wisdom that I began to find my way.

It became clear to me that a highly effective way to bring true peace and harmony into my family dynamic was to combine my two decades of spiritual study with a deep understanding of human psychological behavior and apply them to a conscious parenting process. When I transformed my knowledge into a living reality in my life, a huge shift began to occur. I also realized that the process is not a “quick fix”, it is a way of being that holds the potential for creating extraordinary results.

Not only did it profoundly deepen my understanding of the impact that I have on my child’s beliefs, and the relationships she will cultivate, it also broadened my understanding of what it means to parent from a place of presence. Through this awareness I have found it much easier to dissolve patterns and habits that do not support my desire to raise a child who is confident, conscious, respectful of life and equipped to face the challenges yet to come in her own life.

I don’t believe in pointing out what people are doing “wrong”, I believe in guiding people to consistently access their own inner wisdom to find what is right for them. Your connection to your child is profound and unique. You know what feels right for you and your family even if you can’t always “see” it.

The tools and techniques I like to share with people are not a means to an end. They are the gateway through which you can access your peace and your power as a confident, conscious parent. They are the beginning of the answer to the question I often hear...So how do I do that?

As a busy mom who works full-time, with a demanding schedule, I believe in solutions for real life, not idealistic, unattainable “pie in the sky” theories that might work for some but not others. Conscious parenting transcends cultural, political and socio-economic boundaries because it is every parent’s right to experience healthy, loving and harmonious relationships with their children.

Whatever your challenge, Life Positive By Design can help awaken your confidence and expand your awareness as a parent. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions on conscious parenting and I would be happy to post responses on my blog or in the free monthly newsletter.

I look forward to meeting you,
