Yogic Parenting We assume our kids are fine when their report cards look perfect. Topper means strong. Silent means sorted. Discipline means stable. But nobody sees the pressure sitting quietly behind those numbers. Some children never say they are tired. They keep performing, hoping achievement will protect them from disappointment. Their manas the mind stays busy, their prana runs high, but their inner world withdraws. This is where pratyahara quietly shows up the child shutting down inside while still functioning outside. The truth is, a child can be winning on the outside and breaking on the inside. So instead of asking only, “Marks kitne aaye?”, we need the yogic humility of saiyam pausing before reacting, giving space to listen. Ask them, “What’s happening in your heart?”, “Is something hurting you?”, “Do you feel safe to talk to me?” These are the questions that bring sattva calmness back into their system. Your child needs connection more than perfection. Presence more than pressure. They need dayā compassion not comparison. Their samskaras, their emotional imprints, are shaped by how we respond, not how they perform. Check on the child who looks strong. Sometimes they are the ones holding the biggest storm.
