Description

In this episode, I talk about why children aren't fighting sleep, and why we're often fighting their natural relaxation response.

I share concisely about how we can trust children and follow their lead and can then cooperate with their natural relaxation response.

I explain the power of play before bed, and why we can look at the "it'll all end in tears" phenomenon in a very different light.

At the end, I share a story from a child's perspective that comes from my latest best-selling book, 'I'm Here and I'm Listening.'

The book has a chapter on sleep.

If you want to understand more about sleep and Aware Parenting, there is the first sleep series already recorded, and I will be starting a second series soon, to correspond with my next book, which is about sleep and Aware Parenting.

The Aware Parenting Podcast explores all elements of parenting through a developmental perspective. We explore why and how connection, attachment, compassionately understanding our own childhoods as parents, and listening to our children are the foundation to parenting with this particular kind of awareness.
