Freely feeling the feelings
I’m starting a small group coaching series here in Austin, TX this Wednesday titled “Becoming A Calm Cool and Connected Parent.” I’ll be threading the series with a book called The Conscious Parent: Transforming ourselves, empowering our children by Shefali Tsabary, PhD.
Here’s an excerpt:
When our children are permitted to feel their feelings, they are able to release them amazingly quickly. They come out of the pain understanding that pain is just another sensation. The anticipation of the pain is often more intolerable than the actual pain. When our children experience their pain in its pure form, without fueling it in resistance or coloring it with a reaction, the pain transforms itself into wisdom and perspective.
If you are interested in becoming a calm cool and connected parent and learning how to be with your children and their emotions in a more conscious and compassionate way, please join me for this six week series.
