Parenting Unchained - by Jenny Ng (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

While breastfeeding her infant daughter in 2010, Jenny Ng realized unconditional love is bi-directional; her baby accepted and loved her for who she was and who she was not. And she loved her child unconditionally.

This epiphany released Jenny from her previous subconscious belief that she didn't deserve love-a lie that stemmed from wounds in Jenny's own childhood with unconscious parents and four siblings competing for their attention.

Parenting Unchained details Jenny's journey to healing those wounds and becoming a conscious parent. Her story demonstrates methods to practice mindfulness in parenting, alternative ways to enjoy parenthood, and exercises to help build a deep connection with your inner child and your own children.

Learn to be a curious parent and playfully break the chain of old patterns not only to grow your wisdom as a parent but also to better support your children and discover their true strengths.

Review Quotes

"In this powerful book, Jenny teaches you the power of finding the truth from within, and what it is like to be a conscious mother and coach."

- Dr. Shefali Tsabary, New York Times bestselling author of The Conscious Parent.

"Jenny found her way to connect with her inner truth, becoming a wise observer of herself through mindfulness. This allows her to accept her 'real child' for who she really is, instead of clinging to the 'ideal child' her mind constructed. If she can benefit from this, so can you."

- Chade-Meng, Tan. New York Times bestselling author of Joy on Demand and Search Inside Yourself.

"In these very challenging times, every parent needs support and an inner voice that continuously encourages and empowers them to be the parent they want to be. Finding that voice can be a struggle, particularly when many of us enter parenting with messages from within and without-including social media-that we are somehow not good enough, not ready, and make poor choices. Jenny Ng's book is a true lifesaver for the individual parent finding their voice of confidence. Through boldly honest reflection of her own story of parenting and gentle guidance shared with others, she offers a pathway for others."

- Dr. Susan Walker, Associate Professor Emeritus of Family Social Science at the University of Minnesota.

"It takes a courageous and willing heart to transform pain into growth and heal our inner wounds. In her book, Jenny shares how she's been there and done that, and what's more, she shows us her own self-care regime that we can use to find inner peace."

- Michelle Locke, Founder of Wu Tao Dance International.
