Frequent Character of Indigo Children

#May be strong-willed, independent thinkers who prefer to do their own thing rather than comply with authority figures/parents

#Have a wisdom and level of awareness and caring beyond their youthful experience

#Traditional parenting and discipline strategies don’t appear effective with these children. If you try to force an issue, a power struggle is the typical outcome

#Energetically Indigos are vibrating at a higher frequency so they can get scrambled by negative energy (human or machine)

#Emotionally they can be very reactive and may have problems with anxieties, depression or temper rages if not energetically balanced

#Are creative right brained thinkers but may struggle to learn in a traditional left brained school system


#Often Indigos are diagnosed as having ADD/ADHD since they appear impulsive (their brain can process information faster) and they require movement to help keep them better focused

#Indigos are very intuitive (often psychic) and may see, hear or know things that seem unexplainable

# Indigos tend to be more visual, kinesthetic learners so remember best what they can picture in their brain and create with their hands

# Indigos have more problems with food and environmental sensitivities since their system is more finely tuned


#When their needs are not met, these children appear self centered and demanding although this is not their true nature

#These children have incredible gifts and potential but may be shut down when not properly nurtured and accepted.

Definition of Indigo Children :


The Indigo Child is a boy or girl who displays a new and unusual set of psychological attributes, revealing a pattern of behavior generally undocumented before.

This pattern has singularly unique factors that call for parents and teachers to change their treatment and upbringing of these kids to assist them in achieving balance and harmony in their lives, and to help them avoid frustration.

As as defined by the authors of The Indigo Children:
Jan Tober and Lee Carroll.

Indigo Children

In the New Age movement, indigo children are children who are believed to represent a higher state of human evolution. The term itself is a reference to the belief that such children have an indigo-colored aura.Beliefs concerning the exact nature of indigo children vary, with some believing that they have paranormal abilities such as the ability to read minds, and others that they are distinguished from non-indigo children merely by more conventional traits such as increased empathy and creativity.

Some alleged indigo children exhibit precocious cognitive development and are almost certainly intellectually gifted; i.e., they have high IQs and superior general intelligence. The intellectually gifted often display unusual sensitivity, empathy, precocious moral sensibility, as well as greater-than-normal body symmetry. To a person unfamiliar with gifted children, or to an adherent of New Age principles, a child expressing these traits might appear to have paranormal abilities, or possibly a higher level of evolutionary development.
