kindred media and community

How We Share The New Story

Kindred Media has chronicled the breakthroughs and insights of the Conscious Parenting Movement for over 20 years. Our wisdom archives and oral histories present and preserve this living, consciousness-raising movements efforts, and those of families to thrive despite America's ranking as the "worst place" to raise a child among developed nations.  Kindred Media is a collaboration of over 200 contributors and organizational partners who have collaborated to building a New Story of Childhood, Parenthood, and the Human Family. Discussions around the site’s New Story posts are facilitated by a Mighty Networks platform and a monthly newsletter, as well as multiple media outlets. A New Story Glossary on the website helps the readers discover new language for our New Story.


To tell a New Story, we're going to need new language, new storytellers and new, courageous vision of our human potential. Kindred began as first global eco-parenting magazine in 2002.

Breaking the Cycle Film

Breaking the Cycle of the old story, and authoring a new one

TThe moving and inspirational six-minute film illustrates our capacity for breaking our current Cycle of Competitive Detachmentand returning to the pattern of 95% of our human history: a healthy, peaceful Cycle of Cooperative Companionship. Breaking the Cycle is based on the multi-award-winning book, Neurobiology and the Development of Human Morality: Evolution, Culture and Wisdom, by Darcia Narvaez, PhD. 


Breaking the Cycle contrasts the two basic ways societies can function: the optimal approach, which most human societies through time have followed, is the Cycle of Cooperative Companionship where children’s basic needs are met; they grow into well-functioning, cooperative community members (from neurobiology and on up); and as healthy adults, they maintain the cooperative system.  Currently in the USA the opposite pattern is in place: children’s basic needs are not met, illbeing and dysregulation ensue, creating adults who are detached and distracted and keep this Cycle of Competitive Detachment going. The United Nations ranks the USA as 41st out of 41 developed countries for child and adult wellness.

CONSCIOUS PARENTING NEWS

How We Reveal The Organic Movement Toward Wholeness

As Darcia Narvaez’s work shows us, our enculturated left-brain thinking is not capable of “seeing” the wholeness of life, and therefore wellness, or the evidence that we are evolving toward a whole, integrated consciousness. This online e-newspaper tracks our collective shift by curating headlines and research that demonstrate the shift, and the relevance of Kindred World’s work.

Kindred World Publishing House

Read about our first book, by beloved author, Pam Leo, published in 2021 and awarded a $25,000 grant from the Stephen and Tabitha King Foundation, here in our press room.
