This week we dive into the topic of "reparenting." We were introduced to the concept by Dr. Nicole LePera (@theholisiticpsychologist on Instagram -- follow her!), and share her tips as well as our experiences!
Before we begin, we share our favorite things from the week! Tennille's is Cookie Therapy ALB and mine include the Always Pan, Olive & June at-home nail kits, and my new Sutera Pillow.
The Holistic Psychologist describes The 4 Pillars of Reparenting as:
We also discuss where to begin in the process, and outline 5 steps to get started:
This week's Word with Maaden is about parent-child relationships. One of the ten commandments, to honor thy mother and father, can be found in Exodus 20:12 and the again in Deuteronomy 5:16 it says, “‘Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God commanded you, that your days may be long, and that it may go well with you in the land that the Lord your God is giving you." There are also instructions for parents, Proverbs 22:6 instructs us to "Train up a child in the way he should go; and that even when he is old he will not depart from it." We are also warned in Ephesians 6:4 and again in Colossians 3:21, "not to provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord, lest they become discouraged."
Finally, we close with the question of the episode, "Which of the four pillars of reparenting do you think you need the most attention in -- Discipline, Joy, Emotional Regulation, and Self-care? And, how do you plan to address it?"
Once you've tuned in, let us know what you think! And as always, If you like what you hear we ask you to rate, review, subscribe and share!
Love,
