Understanding and Managing Emotional Triggers for Mindful Parenting with Dr. Sarah Bren

Ever wondered how your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors impact your parenting? Prepare to gain a deeper understanding of your own emotional triggers and responses as we delve into the complexities of parenting with clinical psychologist Dr. Sarah Bren. This episode is a masterclass in mindful parenting, giving you insights and practical tools to help you respond better to your child's behavior.
We tackle the all-important subject of parental triggers, exploring how understanding our vulnerabilities and personal history can help us better interpret our child's behavior. Learn to recognize your feelings and urges in the moment and practice the skills to manage them effectively. We assure you, this isn't about achieving parental perfection but gaining understanding and awareness that leads to a more effective response.
As we journey through the episode, we shed light on how our early childhood experiences and personal history shape our current parenting style. Indulge in a discussion on the role self-compassion plays in creating a safe space for our children to express their emotions. We also touch upon the fascinating subjects of parental encoding, reparenting and the theory of attachment. By the end, you'll understand why following the 'rules' of parenting isn't enough. It's about understanding yourself to become a more mindful and effective parent. Join us and Dr. Sarah Bren on this insightful journey into the heart of parenting.

Also, Dr. Sarah Bren's new course sounds a bit like "Deeply Feeling Kids" a term coined by Dr. Becky at Good Inside as well. Love seeing all these amazing women helping us parents understand and support our kids better!
