An Unfolding Flower: The Spiritual Growth and Development of Children with Adam Blanning, MD

Children mature on different levels with different timelines. As a general rule, children first work to take hold of a new capacity within themselves, within their body, and within their physiology. When that is practiced and "ripe," we see a refinement of that capacity go out towards the outside world. We could describe it this way: a breath into ourselves, a breath towards the outside world. We will explore how this unfolds over the first 21 years of life, on the levels of growth, emotion, and self-identity.
