Imagine your life… with a sense of ease as you begin to limit distractions and say no to too much, too fast, too soon.
Today’s busier, faster, supersized society is waging an undeclared war . . . on childhood.

- Unplugging: Reducing the influence of adult concerns, media and consumerism on children and families to increase resilience, social and emotional intelligence.
