Aware Parenting, Menarche Celebrations and Inner Child Healing with Joss Goulden
Manage episode 379389600 series 2951658
Joss Golden is a Trauma Informed Parenting Consultant and Level Two Aware Parenting Instructor who is certified with the Aware Parenting Institute. Joss is a mother of two children aged 19 and 17, and she's really passionate about supporting parents to raise children who are deeply connected to their authentic selves so they can process and heal from our trauma and so that we can be the parents that we want to be.
I absolutely love this conversation with Joss. She shares so much wisdom that is really suitable for parents but also people who are likely to be parents in the future. Joss invites us to let go of guilt and shame when we don't need to hold it, and instead, to bring so much compassion to ourselves as we learn to be the parents that our children need us to be and to flow with the changes as our children develop and move into new stages of life and surprises.
We talked about:
- What Aware Parenting is and how Joss found it, and why its different to other parenting frameworks,
- How we can be with ourselves and our feelings as we parent developing children, and are triggered by our children's feelings and behaviours,
- How to honour our changing capacity for listening to feelings and doing life as our energy and resources wax and wane.
- Being with what comes up for us in our Inner Spring of the menstrual cycle, which is a mirror of the Maiden time of our lives, as well as the Inner Summer, which is a reflection of the Mother season of life, and how our children and menstrual cycle can show us where their is room for healing and growth.
- How Joss held a beautiful Menarche celebration for her daughter when she had her first period, and how she educated and supported both of her children through puberty.
- What Joss believes children should know beyond just the facts of life, so that they can become their most wise, joyful, connected, self aware and compassionate young people they can be.
Whether you have children now or not this is a really great listen as we're talking about reparenting ourselves and inner child healing as well as supporting children through puberty adolescence and their rites of passages.
