In this week's episode we talk all about resilience. We explore how the essence of Aware Parenting is deeply linked with resilience. We talk about how we can help our children become resilient beings, and how we can navigate our past experiences to build resilience within ourselves.

[1.42] The definition of resilience

[3.15] Our inbuilt mechanism to be resilient

[7:00] The old perception of resilience

[10.15] Our own imprints around resilience

[13.30] Protecting children from hurt

[18.04] How we create stories based on our childhood experiences

[21.40] The impact of judgement on resilience

[25.20] Embracing trust and painful feelings

[31.15] Identifying our inner child and repressed feelings

[34.03] The empowerment in overcoming challenges

[37.05] Trusting timing in our children

This week’s invitation:

1. Can you feel in your body the strength and flow (ie. be the Sunflower)?

2. Is there a story in your past where you didn’t feel heard and it created shame or embarrassment and you need support to gain resilience?
