"The Sacred Art of Nurturing Ourselves, Our Children and Our Families"
Keynote by Donna Simmons
In today’s world, the family has been called the “bearer of culture.” Yet there is very little support for intentionally creating a home life that supports every member of the family. Donna focuses on the importance and pitfalls of mothering in today’s culture. She also addresses how mothers, by working with rhythm and festivals and with their own strength and mood of soul, can set the stage for a healthy, child-friendly family life, in contrast to one that is child-centered.
Donna describes her rich and unique experience, which includes being a houseparent in Camphill, teaching children from preschool through high school, homeschooling her two sons, and advising parents through Christopherus Home School Resources, which she founded. Donna has many books and other recordings available at
