  • So you had a bad day? Playful ideas for the hard days

    This week on the podcast we are back in the blanket fort and we are talking about how to handle bad days. Growing up can be great but it is not without its challenging moments or hard days. On those days play can feel like the last thing you want to do and with that in mind this episode we explore what play can offer us for those days (the kind of play that lets you feel how you feel and move through) – ways of saying no to toxic positivity and yes to feeling our feelings and letting them exist and process with curiosity.

     

    So, when those hard grown-upping moments happen you have a plan and support from yourself, others and your behaviour.
