Episode description
Summer break is here, and I'm diving deep into the magic of boredom! As a mom, I used to panic every time my kids said they were bored, rushing to fill every moment with activities. But I've learned something powerful: boredom isn't the enemy—it's actually medicine for our souls. In this episode, I'm breaking down why constantly keeping our kids (and ourselves) busy is harming our nervous system. I'll share how embracing stillness can help us reconnect with our creativity, improve our digestion, and teach our kids essential life skills like self-regulation and problem-solving. I'll give you practical tips on how to let your kids (and yourself) experience boredom without guilt, and why it's crucial for your family's mental health. If you're ready to transform your summer from a stress-filled marathon to a healing, restorative journey, this episode is for you. Let's get bored together!
