Ep. 39 Interview with India Farr Part Two Sibling Rivalry, trusting the wisdom of children & more
In part two we continue to hear how India and her team manage more than one child and their feelings all at once. India offers specific games and approaches that ensure all the children are acknowledged and held as needed. Her profound stories point to the wisdom of children and notably her own daughter’s capacity to be sensitive and attuned to the needs of others. And so we all shout what about sibling rivalry? Yes it happens at times in most households. India’s calm trust of the principles of Aware Parenting gives her the capacity to offer consent based solutions to get to the root of rivalry dynamics. So inspired and grateful for these conversations.

Ep. 37 Being with Guilt with listening partners
In this podcast we discuss the crucial role of listening partnerships in relation to parental guilt. A listening partner offers us the opportunity to speak freely about our feelings without judgment or minimising. Often when we speak about our feelings with our partner or a close friend they may tell us we are ‘over thinking’ or worrying too much. Being listened to by someone who appreciates t core aware parenting principles, gives us the opportunity to unpack lingering ‘guilty’ feelings. It is important to note that when these feelings are left unspoken they can lead to low-grade feelings of depression, lack of confidence and unworthiness. When we fully acknowledge what has happened we can begin to put down these burdens. With gentle encouragement a listening partner may also help us recall times when we offered our children some wonderful moments of connection. Being reminded of what is RIGHT with us will help us gather resources and prepare us once again to enter the crazy parenting dance. Treading that tricky path of being a heartfelt and engaged parent with an awareness for our own limits and needs as well.
