This short extra episode is based on my Introduction to Aware Parenting Course. I describe what Aware Parenting is and what the core aspects and principles are. I explain how to practise Aware Parenting in our families and what strategies we can use to make parenting easier. I talk about how to listen to feelings, how to use attachment play, how to rewind and repair when it all goes wrong. I talk about the struggles and challenges of parenting, how to get support for us and why that is so important. I finish with some reflections that we can all use to help us get clear about how we want things to be.
