AN ONLINE SESSION 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.

Adam Blanning, MD, practices anthroposophic medicine in Denver, CO, and works closely with children, families, and schools to support healthy development on a physical, social, sensory, and spiritual level. Dr. Blanning teaches nationally and internationally as a co-leader of the Medical Section at the Goetheanum in Switzerland. He is the author of Raising Sound Sleepers: Helping Children Use their Senses to Rest and Self-soothe.
