The Devon Blueprint is your guide to the practice of health, vitality and mindfulness. Nick Stevens is your friendly and thoughtful host; an engineer by training, but now sharing his self-experimentation in how to live a better and more fulfilled life. The blueprint for being the best version of you starts from within, and it's a journey to be savoured and shared.
My perspective on love, particularly parental love, and how it is expressed through actions such as creating traditions for children. There is a tension to explore between having high standards for children and simultaneously showing unconditional love.

Saturday Blueprint on Parenting

They don’t fret about the future, they don’t get anxious about their ego, they don’t pine about the past, and they don’t stress about their situation. They do a great job just being. Let’s explore the nature of children and the unique responsibility of parenting, for which I am wholly unprepared but endlessly fascinated.
