Have you ever wondered how to raise highly sensitive, empathic, or neurodiverse kids in a way that truly honors their spirit? In this heartfelt episode of The Spiritual Parent, I sit down with fellow speech therapist and healer Jen McNerney to explore the powerful intersection of speech therapy, energy healing, and conscious parenting.
Jen shares her inspiring journey from early intervention speech therapy to building a healing practice rooted in muscle testing, tuning forks, Qigong, neuroemotional technique, and myofascial release. Together, we dive deep into the ways children naturally connect with energy, frequency, and authenticity—and how parents can support them in feeling safe in their bodies, navigating emotions, and embracing their unique gifts.
We discuss everything from:
- Teaching kids muscle testing and body-based awareness tools
- Helping empaths and sensitive children separate “my energy” vs. “your energy”
- Using sound healing and frequencies to regulate the nervous system
- Why so many neurodivergent and non-speaking children are our greatest teachers
- How parents can heal their own subconscious patterns to better support their kids
This episode is filled with wisdom, practical tools, and soulful insights for any parent raising sensitive, gifted, or spiritual kids. Whether you’re curious about energy medicine, spiritual parenting, or conscious approaches to neurodiverse children, this conversation will inspire you to look at parenting in a whole new light.
🌟 Tune in to learn how to integrate science, spirituality, and healing practices into your parenting journey—and how to empower your kids to live authentically in their energy and truth.
