A Framework for Wise Education: Chakras and Child Development

Many people, including parents, teachers, principals, and school board members, are deeply involved in developing and applying a variety of approaches to improve children’s wellbeing, solve school problems, and support action plans that enhance our current educational systems. Despite these well-intentioned efforts, many such strategies fall short of a system that covers the development of the whole person. Ellen Tadd proposes a different approach. For children, as well as adults, understanding and applying the lessons of the chakra system will provide a solid foundation for generating thoughtful, creative, practical, and emotionally balanced individuals.Her first book describing the chakras and their impact on our lives, The Wisdom of the Tools for Navigating the Complexity of Life, caught the attention of several educators. Inspired by their interest and her experiences as a parent, the author has now turned her understanding of the chakra system into a practical, holistic methodology for creating A Framework for Wise Education.Children will inherit this world with its complex and difficult problems to solve. How can adults best prepare children for the challenges they will face individually and collectively? A Framework for Wise Education consists of universal concepts applicable in times of hardship and times of ease. The ideas expressed in this book have a simplicity but do not let that fool you. When applied, the positive results are profound and far-reaching.
