We are launching a magazine to inspire conscious parenting and empowered children, in the Puget Sound area. Please visit our website www.NorthStarFamilyMatters.com to find out more about us and our philosophy. Our magazine will be distributed for free (read: advertiser funded) and we would love to get involved with people interested in contributing in any way (writing, editing, photography, web design, article ideas, ad sales, interviews, etc, etc). We will promote the use of EFT (www.healthyemotions.net) , among other techniques, as a tool for parents to use with their children.

We are particularly excited about our "Dream Page,” where we encourage children to write, draw, record, dictate or come tell us about their dream. We will respond to every story and send an annual subscription to the child, in addition to sending an empowered kid dream certificate to every child who takes a positive action toward their dreams. In addition, we will actively get involved with one child’s dream every month, seeking sponsors to help that child move closer to the future of their dreams.

To give you an idea of what we're talking about, here's one story of how we've changed the direction of one teenager's life.

"JB was 17 years old and wanted to drop out of high school. The staff of North Star FamilyMatters was asked to intervene. After a short conversation with JB, it was easy to see that his passion was sports-—that was when he came alive and felt passionate about life. We encouraged JB encouraged to ask for an intern program at his school for sports journalism and our managing editor wrote an email to the national sports writer that JB idolized, asking if he would write a note of encouragement. On Christmas Eve JB received a one-page email from this famous sports writer, which turned his life around. He go the internship, interviewed the Phoenix Suns (his favorite team) and finished high school."

I am a strong believer that EFT (or Emo-Free Technique) is an amazing tool to overcome the fears and anxiety that keep us from living our true potential. Check out my EFT website(www.healthyemotions.net) for more information on myself and what I do.
