"One day Jon Fogel found himself screaming at his toddler son, and he knew something had to change. It wasn't just that he needed to figure out how best to parent his little boy, but that he also needed understand and redirect his own emotions. This moment put Fogel on a path towards wholeness: understanding his whole self, learning about the whole brain, caring for the whole person, becoming a whole parent. In a few short years, Jon became an inspiration to over a million parents around the world who were striving to be the best parents they could be too. Now with The Whole Parent, Fogel, a father of three, pastor, and parenting educator, brings to parents the hard-won insights from his research and work as a parenting coach. In easily-digestible prose and with compassionate insight, Fogel offers moms and dads a clear path to their own wholeness as parents-from learning to recognize and name their own emotional triggers to responding to children with a more keen awareness of their developmental processes"-- Provided by publisher.
