The Aware Parenting Podcast

In this episode, which we recorded just after Mother’s Day here in Australia, we talk about: how it’s so normal and natural to feel big feelings on Mother’s Day, and how those are a reflection of living in the Disconnected Domination Culture (in Marion’s words). We share about how we moved from feeling disappointed, sad and frustrated on Mother’s Day to deeply fulfilled and valued, and some invitations for other mothers to make that shift. We also talked about moving from valuing mothers one day a year, to the centrality of valuing mothers for a healthy culture.

In this episode, we talk with a guest, Steph Fleeton, who is an Aware Parenting Instructor.

We asked Steph to join us after receiving messages recently asking about practicing Aware Parenting when a child has a diagnosis such as ADHD or Autism.

Steph has a long background in early childhood education and daycare and also has two sons, the eldest of whom has a diagnosis of ADHD and Generalised Anxiety Disorder.

In the podcast, Steph shared about her experience of practicing Aware Parenting with her son as well as with the children that come into her care. We felt so touched listening to Steph share about deeply connecting with each child and their uniqueness. Steph also shared about her journey of her son getting diagnosed and the impact the diagnosis has on how other adults are towards him.

Episode 95: Starting Aware Parenting later by Marion Rose, PhD.

In this episode, we share about what overwhelm is, how we might behave when we’re overwhelmed, and how we can help ourselves move out of overwhelm. We talk about how our experiences of overwhelm can help us have more compassion for our children when they’re overwhelmed, and the two key things we might need when we’re overwhelmed.

Are they fighting sleep, or are we fighting their natural relaxation processes? In this podcast, we share the Aware Parenting perspective on playing before sleep and as parents we can work with our child or teen’s innate wisdom to sleep restfully.

This episode was inspired by a listener’s question about returning home to visit family and returning to younger states.

In the episode, we talk about why family conditioning is so strong and why it can be so hard to free ourselves from it.

We also share ways that we have found helpful to get untangled from the conditioning.

In this episode, we talk about what happens when we as adults or our children experience big events, and how we can cooperate with and trust our natural and inbuilt healing processes that come into play afterwards.

Marion shares about her recent experiences during the floods in her community, and Lael offers suggestions about how we can help ourselves and our children during times like these.

We are both sending you so much love if you’re going through big events right now, when there is so much going on in the world.

Ahh, we loved this episode!

We talked about how this culture creates beliefs in people that there is something wrong with us and how we can support ourselves to change those beliefs and stories.

We also offered ideas for what we can do as parents so that our children are less likely to believe that there is something wrong with them.

There is nothing wrong with you!

In this conversation, we talk about why and how Aware Parenting can help change the systems that we live within. We focus on Aware Parenting and the education system. Lael explains this in the context of her school, and Marion shares about Natural Learning. Most of all, we offer a big picture lens which explains why practicing Aware Parenting can be so hard within this culture.
