Raising Indigos: 8 Tips to Help Your Indigo Child Thrive

Indigos are children (and adults) with an expanded sensory perception. Their unique ability to “see through the veil” has often been either romanticized or feared, resulting in a general misunderstanding of their nature. I wish to offer a different, grounded perspective on the Indigo experience, with the intention of helping indigo children and their caregivers achieve self-confidence and nurturing relationships. Parenting an Indigo child can be a rollercoaster ride, but these 8 tips will help your child – and you – thrive.

1 – Don’t Ask Your Indigo to Explain

The crucial element in raising indigo children is to understand their unique neurological wiring. Their heightened multisensory perception (clairvoyance, clairaudience, telepathy, etc.) is usually what stands out and is straight-forward to conceptualize. What’s not immediately understood is their salient way of processing inputs from the environment.

Theirs is a non-linear, intuitive information processing that could be viewed as odd, especially in the school setting. An Indigo child may, for instance, resist a chronological approach to learning as it feels unnatural to her. Or she can get frustrated when asked to explain how she arrived at a mathematical solution. Most often, she doesn’t know! The data may have been absorbed all at once and the answer could have appeared in a form of an image or a colour. This ability can be borderline genius or savant, and appear puzzling to teachers and parents alike. Instead of focusing on the mystery of their thinking processes, or asking them about their processes, simply tune into their experience in the moment and allow for their natural learning process to emerge.
