Aware Parenting Conversation with Abbey Stanbrook: "AwP, critical care nursing and attachment play."

“Why Aware Parenting made so much sense after years of Critical Care Nursing; and attachment play for adults.” In this conversation, Abbey talks about her experiences as a nurse, and seeing the healing power of presence, listening, laughter and supported crying. She gives really tangible suggestions to parents around how they can help a child in medical environments, and explains the stress-release mechanisms. Abbey also shares about her experience as a twin, and using play and laughter as adults to help us release feelings and feel more relaxed and present. We laughed a lot in this section! Abbey also talked about her course related to the book Kids, Carrots and Candy, around self-regulated eating.
