Message to Montessori RCB Class


Update: The Unconditional Loving Parenting Class on Wednesday May 6, 2009...

I apologize for the the letting things run past 4:30 I failed to let Caty know I was relying on her for signal when it was time to wrap it up. It was the first time I have done this kind of open discussion and the time went very quickly for me. I could have gone on for a lot longer. I know most if not all of you have very busy schedules and you were possible relying on me to end on time. I really need to work on that. With a three hour class it is easy but a one hour class goes by so quickly. A half hour seems like 10 minutes.

I wanted to introduce you to this blog and suggest, for now, we use this for general comments or questions that you would like answers. You can always email me personally and I will get back to you personally. I will always ask permission to use the information learned before posting to the blog and I will never identify who posted unless you tell me to do so. In other words...I will always respect your privacy.

I plan to update my bio and give more information but just for the record...please note my perspective is not based on any knowledge other than my reading and talking to parents about issues. As you get to know me you will realize I am more interested in helping parents to have happy healthy families work for a living. I am a retired engineer and father of 6 children. I had a bit of a rough time of it as a child due to may parents wanting to do the best they could with 6 kids born within 15 months of each other. I dearly loved them and appreciate all that they did even though it was at times difficult as a child because I was the oldest mainly. The work I did to overcome those early years has made me more aware of the suffering of others, which is likely why I chose to do this in my retirement. It just seemed the natural thing to do.

I love helping and RCB (Redirecting Children's Behavior) is such a powerful course for changing lives and families. I have to share it with others and I appreciate the opportunity that Montessori has given me. I truly mean that. Montessori is such a blessing to us all.

I will be posting to this blog on a regular basis and eventually set up a forum for group discussions on topics and Skipe telecasts for those who would like to interact in that way to get questions answered. Group interaction is such a great way to empower ourselves and gain instant benefits from things. I would like to offer you an invitation in advance to include others in this interchange of ideas. I have a vision which includes a growing number of like minded parents and teachers who are open to sharing ideas that they have learned by their experience and training. It is important, I believe to belong to groups like these and to be open to ask for help when we need it. It is not easy to do for some of us but it is Ok! we are all ONE. The deeper we go to understanding who we truly are, the more we realize the truth of that statement.

  • This is the link to the International Network for Children and Families, where I reveived my training. http://www.incaf.com
  • There are many resources and I have a bio if you look under instructors in Michigan if your interested.
  • For you teachers...I promise to do what I can to get CEU's for the classes and offer them throughtout the year in one hour classes and workshops. I know it is possible and it is something I know fullfills a need all teachers have which I would like to serve.
  • You will receive automatic notifications when I make future postings to my blogsite. If you would rather not please let me know. http://HealthySoul-utions.blogspot.com

Setting Limits

Setting Limits
©Kathryn Kvols

What are limits? Limits tell your family under what condition you are willing or unwilling to do something. They tell your family where you "draw the line." They tell them what you will or will not tolerate. Their purpose is to take care of you. Limits are not designed to control or manipulate someone else' behavior. Here are three examples:

Example 1. A mother was playing basketball with her two teenage sons. The boys were getting competitive and soon the game wasn't fun. Mother announced, "It is not fun for me when you two fight. When you are ready to make it fun again, come and get me. I'd love to play again."

Example 2. I was holding hands roller-skating with my daughter. She said in a very demanding tone of voice, "Skate faster!" This wasn't the first time Ihad noticed that she was being demanding so I said, "I am unwilling to have you talk like that to me. It makes me feel like not cooperating with you and if you continue, I will skate by myself."

Example 3. A daughter asked her mother to take her to the video store and rent her a movie.
Her daughter had already spent her allowance that week. Mom said, "I'd be willing to take you to the video store but, I am unwilling to rent you a movie." Limits give others important information about you to help them know what they can or cannot expect from you. They are about you. Not about criticizing their behavior or about trying to make them act in a certain way.

Why do children need limits?
  • Children need you to set limits so that they can recognize and respect other people's limits.
  • Limits provide a sense of security. When children don't know your limits they feel lost in an abyss. They feel confused andsometimes literally bounce around trying to find some.
  • Limits make children feel like we care about them. Childrenwho are raised without limits often feel abandoned.
  • Children need limits to learn how to deal with conflict. What happens when someone tells me I have over stepped his or her limits?
  • What happens when someone disrespects mine?
  • Children need limits to help them define themselves. They help them clarify their own limits because they have seen your model.
  • Limits help them to learn what is socially acceptable and what is not.
  • Children need to learn that if they go past a certain point, there will be consequences.
  • Some of them may be serious.
What issues need limits?
You may want to set limits about the use of your belongings, TV watching, bedtime, your time, the use of profanity, mealtime, chores, care and feeding of pets. This is not a conclusive list. Make a list of important issues for you.

How do we know when our limits are being violated?
The best clue to determine whether or not you limits are being violated is by being in touch with your feelings. If any of the following feelings sound familiar, you know your limits are being dishonored or you are not being clear about them. Anger, resentment, impositioned, smothered, taken advantage of, abused, like you are pulling more than your fair share of the weight, unappreciated, like you are being divided between two people you love, taken for granted, a child taxi cab driver, wondering what about me?

Why do we have a difficult time setting limits?

Our ability to set and follow through with limit setting will be largely determined by how you were parented as a child. If you were in any of the following situations, setting limits may be difficult for you.
  • Not having any limits as a child, being unsupervised
  • Being told messages like, "Don't make waves," "Children are to be seen and not heard" "You are being selfish."
  • If you were told it wasn't "nice" to assert yourself
  • If there was abuse in home either mental, physical, emotional, sexual, drug and alcohol or work.
  • If there was someone in your family that you had to give up your needs for because they were sick or disabled.
  • If self-sacrifice was modeled and expected of you.
  • If intimidation was used to motivate you.
  • Sometimes we don't set limits because we don't feel we deserve them.
  • Or we feel guilty about our own actions such as, working too much or getting a divorce.
What we do instead of setting limits?
We often choose one of the following behaviors rather than setting limits because we are afraid of creating conflict. We are afraid the other person will get angry or leave us, or reject us. We may even feel that what we say or do will not make a difference anyway. Instead directly setting limits we sometimes indirectly handle these situations by:
  • Denial (Acting or pretending as though it didn't happen)
  • Ignore it and hope it'll go away
  • Talk yourself out of how you are feeling (I shouldn't feel that way because ... )
  • Making excuses for the other person's behavior (He only saidthat because he was tired.)
  • Ruminating about the issue (Going over and over the event in your mind, trying to make sense of it.)
  • Blame someone else
  • Blame yourself (if I had only done ... he wouldn't act this way.)
  • Getting even
  • Hiding behind righteousness (I'm above having those feelings.)
  • Pretending that you don't care
  • Withholding your love or your communication
  • What can we expect when we start setting limits?
When you first start setting limits, you can expect that your child's behavior may get worse. They will test you. They will try everything in their power to get you to go back to the way you used to be. So, make sure your seat belt is fastened. You may be going for a ride!

Steps for setting limits

  1. Honor your feelings. Remember feelings are neither right or wrong. They just are.
  2. Get clear about what you want. What you are and are not willing to do.
  3. Present the information to your family member using an "I"statement. For example, "I am unwilling to wash clothes that are notin the hamper." There should be no blame, shame, guilt,exaggerations or complaining. Do this step as soon as possible to prevent an unnecessary build up of resentment.
  4. Be ready to "stick to your guns." Be consistent and followthrough.
Children need limits to help them define themselves. They help them clarify their own limits because they have seen your model.

When you first start setting limits, you can expect that your child's behavior may get worse.

Unconditional Loving Parenting Series

Beginning in April...Monday Nights will be devoted to a series of workshops examining current beliefs regarding parenting and questioning how we parent children in today's society.

We will be addressing values and specific ways to lovingly discuss matters of importance with our children...reaching their hearts. Temper tantrums and Power struggles, setting limits, encouragement, feeling stoppers, understanding misbehavior, teaching your child how to say "No!", Win win negotiating and a lot more.

Our parents learned from their parents who learned from their parents, who passed it on to us. For me, what I learned from my parents was all I knew, and I did not know what to do. No matter what I tried, I was not getting the desired results. In a moment of desperation I went to the Internet and found the International Network for Children and Families. What I learned made perfect sense to me then and still applies today. I believe there is nothing more powerful than unconditional love for setting things straight. We will go over all the steps to being the unconditionally loving parent you really want to be...and your child will change. It works.

Much of the course material is based in Adlerian psychology and I have added much, much more. The information I will be teaching will not be the entire course. I will teach you the essence of the course without the workshops as well as share some valuable tools for implementing the core principals of Redirecting Children's Behavior and show you how to empower your children with core values as well that will serve them and generations to come. Each week we will discuss the progress your making and I will offer suggestions. Love never fails. Love empowers others.

"Self-esteem is the overall judgment of self...a sense of self-respect and self-worth...this is the core of the child's personality and determines the use he makes of his life"
-- Alfred Adler the father of Adlerian psychology....

You don't find people in prison with high self-worth. I read somewhere that it cost more to hold a prisoner for one year than it cost to put a child through a year of studies at Harvard University. Think about how much good could be accomplished if there no need for prisons.


What these seminars teach could easily end all the problem that exist on this planet if... everyone were to embrace its principals and apply them everyday. Yes...beliefs must change and no, it will not be easy. But it is simple, and it will change your life and your children will love the change. Peace and joy can be yours.

We will also instruct you in EFT for parenting to cope with anxiety and emotional upsets for parents and children also. You will not want to miss one of these classes.

Call now to reserve your seat. The classes are free to everyone and they will run 4 to 6 weeks. 231-638-3511

Vocal Toning in Muskegon...

This Monday evening I will be having a **Free** Vocal Toning workshop at The Park Terrace Apartments Welcome Center located at: 1290 Hackley Ave, across from Glenside Elementary School. It will start at 6:30 and end at 8:00 PM.

If you plan to attend, you may want to bring a friend with you. The reason for this suggestion is that I have found that most people who, although truly interested in doing vocal toning, are in need of support until they develop a real love for doing it .

It's not that it is difficult, as anyone who had been doing it for a while will tell you...(1) You can not do it wrong and... (2) If you find it difficult, just relax and let it come to you naturally. This is about allowing the healing. Toning is as effortless as laughing or singing and is very similar, in many ways, to both laughing and singing. It uplifts and invigorates, at the same time, brings peace and serenity into otherwise stressful lives and relationships.

Toning before discussing a difficult problem, is the perfect way to stay centered and peaceful. It is like nothing else you can imagine. It is the best way to begin a project and to approach difficult obstacle that get in the way. Some of the great geniuses throughout history have used meditation as their source of inspiration and discovery, creativity and brilliance. Toning is effective and gets you into a deeper state of consciousness very quickly with the added advantage of balancing the energy pathways to promote gentle healing.

The human voice carries within it feelings subliminal information that we are seldom aware of when we are in the process of speaking. Non-vocal music carries messages as well but the human voice is the perfect instrument for expressing feelings and it does so without words necessarily.

You must participate in this workshop to learn how to breath properly to support the voice as well, and produce the fullest richest sounds, and direct the sounds for healing anyone or anything.

It is going to be lots of fun...so bring a friend and join us as we begin this new journey inward. You will receive the guidance that you need by trusting in the magical power of your own chemistry.

Vocal Toning in Lima Peru - Open Heart

Lima Peru Update:

If you want to contact Catalina or myself while we are in Lima Peru the best way is by eMail or Yahoo Messenger...If you email us with your home phone number, We will call your phone over the Internet. I am not using my cell phone but you can call and leave a message in my voice mail for either Catalina or myself and we will get back to you pronto. Let us know the best time to call.

We are having a lot of great experiences in Lima. We have been interviewed on TV twice and we will be doing a 3 hour workshop for the Educational Consortium in a couple week. All attending will be teachers from all over Lima. What a wonderful thing to have happen. We are also doing classes at the Mystical Group "Open Heart" here in Lima and many private sessions have resulted. We are working with 25 or 30 students currently, who are interested in doing bi-monthly healing sessions using Vocal Toning and those will begin very soon and continue after we return to Ocala. I am very excited. We have been so busy that we have had little time to see the sights we want to see. We expect to be visiting Manchu Picheu in a couple weeks.

Lima is a very large place with many tales of days gone by. There are many building that have existed for hundreds of years and the newer building are also wonderful works of architecture. I am especially impressed with the markets and large department stores which rival anything I have seen in my travels throughout the US. I will be sharing some pictures on this blog site very soon. I have not had Internet access much of the time here and that has prevented me from doing more posting and emailing. There are places you can go to access the Internet but my computer has caused me some trouble preventing normal access.

Before closing I want to encourage everyone to do your vocal toning everyday even if you can only do the weak notes for 2 minutes each note every day, it will make a difference. Remember you can not get it wrong. We will all do it our way. Consider the intuitive aspects and feeling what are happening to your body. Keep in mind the vowels are more important than the pitch and the breathing will become automatic in time. Just send love and gratitude to those places that you focus on. Trust that this will work and apply the things you know inside and let go of concerns or how perfectly you are doing it, those will come automatically as you do daily practice.

Comments and Questions are welcome.
Good Vibrations,
John and Catalina in Lima Peru
