What a wonderful book! It is rare and heart-warming to find a book on parenting that is at once, wise, vulnerable, humorous, scientific and inspiring! All this is contained within the tender pages of Parenting Magic. Karen Shaw’s blend of warm personal stories as a single mom of three boys, combined with a rich review of the most useful theories in child and adult psychology, including the powerful Energy Alignment Method, make this a book that will appeal to parents of all backgrounds, ages, and beliefs. Give this gift to yourself.

Conscious communication is central to my own work, which is why I am so keen to recommend Karen’s book to parents everywhere. Our kids, the next generation, will be more conscious, capable and grounded from being raised by more conscious parents.

From my medical background, treating adults with addiction and low self-worth, I understand the power of the messages we receive from our caregivers in childhood, the knock-on effects to their development and even the choices they make as adults. I love that Karen has dedicated a chapter of her book to explaining the neuroscience of child development in plain English so that everyone can understand.

When we better understand our roles in our children’s development, we can parent more confidently and responsibly, knowing how to pass on more of our knowledge and life lessons, and less of our pain or anxieties.  

Andrea Pennington, MD – Author, The Real Self Love Handbook

At last a parenting book that makes sense for all parents regardless of what age their child is, or the situation they are facing. Since the beginning of time parents have been navigating unconsciously in the dark as they try to do the best by their children. With no parenthood manual, much of what we demonstrate is either moving to or away from what we have personally experienced ourselves as children.  

Karen Shaw brings a new dimension to parenthood, in this messy and often times complicated modern world. Empowering parents to understand the power of their thoughts, words and actions in order to consciously navigate this parenting journey fully supported and allowing their children the freedom to be themselves.

I absolutely loved this book, written from the heart. Karen has created the ultimate guide to bringing up happy children… a must for every parent.  

Sara Lou-Ann Jones – CEO of Centre of Excellence

As parents we’re gifted an important opportunity to raise the next generation of adults who have the potential to go out into the world and make it a better place. But it’s not always easy, and it’s often bloody hard.

Parenting Magic shows us how to practically navigate the challenges, whilst infusing the power of positive energy to lift ourselves and our children into higher levels of conscious living. A true breath of fresh air in the parenting book sector.

This book is a masterpiece to teach us to become wonderful parents by learning more about ourselves and our children and also how to maintain healthy happy relationships. It is written in an enjoyable way, which makes complex information easy to understand... This is the book every parent has been waiting for!

Karen has certainly encapsulated the art of conscious parenting between the covers of this beautiful book … I so wish this book had been available 50+ years ago when I became a very nervous and confused parent. How differently I would have handled my challenge with Karen’s gentle guidance, insight and wisdom to hand.

Jean Francis – One Spirit Interfaith Foundation

This is the book I wish I had when I became a parent. This is the book I wish I had by my side as my sons were growing up. We need to get this book into the hands of all parents... Karen is the Marie Kondo of parenting.

Being a parent comes in all shapes and sizes, but is always the most important job in the world. The daily impact we have in our children’s lives influences and shapes who they become and ultimately ripples into the generations of the future. Being a parent is a gift, but it doesn’t always mean it’s easy. This book is such a gift too. Every 21st century parent needs a bit of Karen’s Parenting Magic’s wisdom, reassurance and new-world tools to navigate the journey of raising and nurturing another human soul.

What I love the most about this book is that it opens us all up to the possibility and the idea that there is another way. It bestows permission to embrace a different

approach and shows us how. I loved every single piece of this book and can feel Karen’s essence throughout it. Definitely a must-read for anyone looking for a new way who has no idea where to start.

A wonderful piece of work that weaves Karen’s personal journey with her three boys around golden nuggets of wisdom when it comes to being a parent.

You will get ‘Aha’ moments galore as the various scenarios we experience with our kids are explained in such an easily understandable manner… Karen’s brilliant strategic approach to parenting, in which she goes through the practical tools and techniques that empower both yourself and your kids to thrive, is just sheer ‘Magic’.

A treasure trove of information and a new way of thinking, being and doing within parenthood. I just know that this will be a wonderful help for parents. Parenting doesn’t come with a manual but this is as close as you’d get to one.

You will find this book to be genuinely filled with parenting magic. With pure honesty, Karen Shaw has shared personal stories to effectively convey how communication and connection create loving and supportive relationships with children. She has skillfully combined insights directly from her heart as a mother, with the vast knowledge she has gained as a professional. The beauty of her sharing results in you having the wonderful opportunity to gain the desired confidence you seek as you become a more conscious parent.
