As a parent, are you playing ping pong or chess with your kids? It's not all about the games, it's about the approach to being with them.
In this episode we talk about taking some lessons from Improv Comedy and apply them to working with our kids. No one approach is better than another, but is it possible that your go-to (like my strength of being a Maximizer) is keeping you from fully having the experience you want at home?
Let's talk about health, habits, strengths (and their downside), the responsiveness in ping pong, the future planning and being in the moment. Whether you call it meditation, mindfulness, awareness, presence or something else, let's explore together. As you will find from a story about a client's use of awareness, it completely changes our relationship with ourselves and our family.
