Mindful As A Mother

Paige Bruce & Lindsay Adams

Hiiiiiii. Lindsay and Paige here: two therapists and mothers with a mission to provide affordable evidence based resources to parents of adhd & autistic children. When we're not working with children and their parents in therapy or recording for the pod, you can find us hanging out at home with our families, surviving on diet coke or coffee, and binge-watching true crime. We're here to make the intersection between therapy and parenting relatable with education, support, and SMASHING parental stigma. Grab your favorite caffeinated beverage and buckle up for the ride.

Mindful As A Mother - Podcast Sprint Day 2: Basic Needs
play

05/16/23 • 11 min

Welcome back to the podcast sprint! We've mapped our nervous system, or maybe your child's nervous system. Now, we need to ensure that our basic needs are being met. "Am I optimizing myself at the level I am capable of?" For the purpose of this podcast sprint and nervous system regulation, our basic needs include rest, sunlight, movement, play, nourishment, connection, shelter, and safety. Once we are able to find our patterns of dysregulation within our nervous system, we are able to evaluate if we're meeting our body's basic needs. What do you notice when you're dysregulated? Are you often tired or hungry? Does your body need movement? You will also learn how to apply this to your child. We're basically just complicated houseplants.

Mindful As A Mother - Podcast Sprint Day 1: Nervous System Mapping
play

05/14/23 • 5 min

Get the down and dirty on the what, why, and how of mapping your nervous system and the nervous system of your child. Nervous system regulation is the core of understanding our responses as adults and tantrums and meltdowns for our kids. Often, we try and jump in immediately with skills to help, but if we don't understand how and why the meltdowns happen, it's harder to problem solve. This is truly step one. Enjoy!
