To re-member is to gather the pieces of ourselves we’ve forgotten — the ones scattered through time, lineage, and the quiet corners of childhood. It is more than recalling a memory. It is the sacred act of becoming whole again.
Within Little Guru & Co., re-membering is not a metaphor — it is a practice. It lives at the heart of The Rememberers collection and threads through the stories we tell about children, parenting, and the wisdom we are born carrying.
These children — the old souls with new gigs, the ones who wake already wise — arrive as evidence. They hold a map back to something intact within us, something waiting to be reclaimed.
What Does It Mean to
Re-member?
The word itself carries ancient intelligence.
To re-member means to bring the members — the parts — back together.
In a world that fragments us through speed, productivity, and constant noise, re-membering becomes an act of resistance. A return to wholeness. A refusal to forget ourselves.
Children are fluent in this language.
They move through the world guided by instinct, curiosity, and emotional truth. They remind us that joy does not require permission, that presence is enough, and that wonder is our original state. When we slow down long enough to notice them, parenting becomes less about shaping behavior and more about remembering alongside them.
This philosophy is woven throughout The Rememberers collection — not as aspiration, but as acknowledgment.
The Soul of The Rememberers Collection
Each piece in The Rememberers capsule carries a quiet invitation.
Old Soul, New Gig honors the children who arrive with eyes that seem to recognize us — as if they’ve been here before.
Woke Up Wise celebrates the truth that wisdom is not earned through age, but remembered through presence.
Made with soft organic cotton or 100% cotton, and printed using non-toxic, water-based inks safe for sensitive skin, these garments are not simply clothes. They are soulwear — reminders worn close to the body, where memory lives.
Through The Rememberers, we affirm something modern culture often overlooks:
children are not here to be shaped — they are here to shape us.
Re-membering as a Conscious Parenting Practice
Re-membering asks us to slow the pace and listen beneath the surface.
🌟 What parts of myself did I leave behind in order to function?
🌟 Where have I learned to override intuition in favor of control?
🌟 How might my child be reflecting something I am ready to reclaim?
This is the foundation of conscious parenting — not perfection, but presence. Not fixing, but attunement.
When we see parenting as a reciprocal relationship rather than a one-way transmission, everyday moments become mirrors. Tantrums carry information. Curiosity becomes guidance. Connection becomes the curriculum.
This understanding echoes throughout resources like The Ages of Openness and The Mirror and the Message, where children are honored not as projects, but as partners in remembrance.
Practical Ways to Re-member Ourselves
Across spiritual and contemplative traditions, remembering has long been understood as a return to what is already whole — not a process of becoming, but of coming back. Re-membering does not require a dramatic overhaul. It happens quietly, in the ordinary moments we often rush past.
Here are gentle, practical ways to begin re-membering yourself:
1. Practice listening without correcting.
When your child speaks — especially in play or emotion — notice the impulse to explain or redirect. Try responding with curiosity instead. This restores trust in your own inner voice, the one that once spoke freely.
2. Return to the body before the mind.
Pause throughout the day and notice your breath, your feet, your posture. Children regulate through sensation and movement; when we follow them back into the body, we reclaim a form of knowing that predates language.
3. Recover a forgotten pleasure.
What did you love before productivity became proof of worth? Drawing, singing, lying on the floor, watching clouds. Pleasure is often the fastest path to remembrance.
4. Let children be the mirror.
Instead of asking how to manage a moment, ask what it is revealing. Children reflect pace, tone, and emotional climate. Re-membering happens when we receive these reflections as information rather than failure.
5. Shift language toward wholeness.
Words shape memory. Replacing urgency with acknowledgment quietly rewires connection as the baseline.
6. Create one small ritual of return.
A bedtime question, a shared breath, a hand on the heart before transitions. Repetition, not ceremony, is what stitches us back together.
7. Wear the reminder.
What we place on our bodies becomes part of our nervous system landscape. The words in The Rememberers Collection are not affirmations to strive toward — they are reflections of what already lives within.
The Rememberers Collection
This collection (6-24 months) was created as a gentle companion for the work of remembering.
Each piece is a quiet acknowledgment of the wisdom our children carry — and the wholeness they call us back to.
A Collective Re-membering
The Rememberers aren’t just children; they are archetypes for a new world — a generation born to help us re-member what matters. Through them, we are called to re-weave the broken threads between self, earth, and spirit — remembering connection over control, listening over shaping, and wholeness over performance.
To re-member that we belong to one another.
To re-member that love is the original language.
And as we clothe them in these words — soft mantras for the skin — we clothe ourselves in meaning. Every slogan becomes a seed. Every word is a seed. Every reminder, a return. Every tee, a reminder that raising children is also about raising consciousness.
Closing Reflection
To re-member is to return — to ourselves, to our truth, to the whole.
It is to see through our children’s eyes and realize we were never separate to begin with. When we allow them to lead us back to what matters, we remember that wholeness was always the beginning.
May this be the quiet work we do, together.
To re-member love. To re-member light. To re-member who we are.
To re-member love.
To re-member light.
To re-member who we are.
