Listen "The Unthinkable Power of Taking a Break"
Episode Synopsis
What do disciplining a child, teaching preschool and taking good care of yourself have in common? The answer might surprise you. This week’s episode is inspired by a parenting technique that seemed too simple to actually work. But as soon as I watched this alarmingly unsophisticated tactic have wild success with my four and five year olds—and their friends—I had to ask myself: maybe there’s value in even the adults taking a break? How long should the break be? Why is this straightforward tool so powerful? Perhaps it has to do with putting us back in touch with our higher selves, our creative nature, our intuitive voice. To learn how taking a short break can combat burnout, calm big emotions and get you unstuck (and even how it can bring order to unruly preschoolers) take a listen and let me know what you think. Where do you need to take a break?
