What if we approached life as if it mattered? The manner of living we engage in now, lays patterns and foundations for our children's future. Join Raine, a mother, writer, educator, for a deep dive into the interconnected nature of everything. Let's work together to nourish emerging families and write a new cultural story - a story of connection, love and wonder. Visit the blog at www.rainesillito.ca
A brief check in after the summer break and some thoughts on mothering. Regular episodes will return this winter! Join me for Season 2 when the snow flies.

7. Everything is Interconnected
A brief ramble on holism and how it relates to how we live. Recorded spontaneously while my kids read books at my feet. Because life is beautifully messy and complex, everything is connected. The manner of living we engage in is what lays the patterns for evolution. A holistic approach is needed in these weird and wild times. Send your thoughts to rainesillito@gmail.com

5. Natural learning and challenging times for children
A conversation with Aimee of Good Food Unearthed about holism, children, learning and the impact of challenges children are facing right now.

2. The Heart Brain Connection
Did you know the heart can actually make decisions independent of the cerebral cortex? The heart communicates information to the brain and body using electromagnetic field interactions - and when the heart fields of mothers and infants overlap, they share a tremendous amount of information.

1. The Biology of Love
A brief exploration of love and maternal infant bonding, and what it means to be human. We are love dependent animals, and to forget that is to be lonely and lost. Infants use their emotional sensory system to determine if they are being loved or rejected. Early attachment or deprivation experiences form lifelong patterns that uphold the culture we live in. You can hear my cats playing in the background. 😆
