Active listening means we repeat what we think we understood even if we don’t agree, including feelings.
What if the secret to a happier family lies in how we communicate and understand each other? In this enlightening episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles chats with Gayle Kimball, Ph.D., an intuitive coach and author, to unpack the essentials of peaceful parenting. Gayle's expertise spans from teaching clairvoyance to writing insightful books like 'How to Survive Your Parents' Divorce' and 'Calm Parents and Children: A Guidebook'.
Together, they explore the transformative power of active listening and self-love in parenting. Gayle shares practical advice on how parents can take care of themselves without feeling guilty. Simple acts like taking a walk, enjoying a nap, or catching up with friends can recharge your batteries and make you a more present parent. The conversation also dives into the importance of truly listening to your children.
By repeating what you think you understood—even if you don't agree—you create a safe space for them to express their feelings. Understanding your child's perspective is another cornerstone of peaceful parenting. Gayle and Valeria discuss using reflective listening, asking open-ended questions, and validating your child's emotions. They also highlight the benefits of meditation for both parents and children, showing how it can reduce stress, improve focus, and foster empathy. Resilience and creativity are also key themes.
Gayle suggests that being flexible and willing to try new things can make everyday tasks more enjoyable. Whether it's making chores fun or using humor to ease tension, these small changes can have a big impact. Finally, the episode touches on the importance of advocating for affordable childcare and paid parental leave. Gayle emphasizes that these resources are crucial for reducing stress and financial strain on families. She encourages parents to support policies and organizations that promote these essential services.
If you're looking for practical tips and heartfelt advice on building stronger relationships with your children, this episode is a must-listen.
