In this episode, I share my story with Aware Parenting: How I came across it, my 'aha' moment with it and why I decided to become an Aware Parenting Instructor.
I had struggled with finding a trauma-informed approach to sleep until I came across the philosophy of Aware Parenting, developed by Aletha Solter, Ph. D. Her work has profoundly impacted my life, and it continues to do so! My hope is that this will inspire parents to approach sleep with the mindset that sleep doesn’t need to be learned, our children have the innate ability to relax—we just need to understand and create the conditions for them to do so.
I deeply believe that this philosophy can not only support parents in feeling more empowered, but contributes to creating a more beautiful world, too.
