Every birth is a gift to us of an innocent, beautiful soul.How can one embrace the young child of today? What effect does the rushing in our lives, the noise in our environment, the pressure of achievement and the impact of the media have upon our children?
All children need peace in which to grow and love to help them flourish. Imagination is food for their little souls; and a safe environment, free from the pressures of modern life will help to sustain them for their whole lives.
Their physical bodies and sense perceptions need a nourishment that does not over stimulate their nerves, and they need good rest, time in which to experience the world and wonder at it.
The Gabriel Talks will address these issues and develop them further, providing a basis upon which to develop an understanding of the growing child in the 21st century.
These annual free public talks are a further path towards understanding the life of the young child and the great joys and challenges of parenting. As a gift to the community, they are an integral part of the Gabriel Way. These talks feature the expertise of many people working in the realm of childhood.
