Ready Dad Go! Podcast - #4 Emotions

Demian and Lenart, continue with chapter 3: How We Feel: Emotion in Our Internal and Interpersonal Worlds - from the book "Parenting From the Inside Out" by Daniel J. Siegel and Mary Hartzell.

This Chapter is about Emotions.

It is very important to understand emotions because they shape our internal world, our interpersonal worlds and it is very important how we deal with emotions when it comes to parenting and helping children to understand and deal with their emotions.

It is so important to attune to the emotions of our children and we personally found that this can be very difficult but extremely rewarding.

We discuss Primary and Categorical emotions.

We tap into the importance and science behind empathy.

When we attune ourselves to the emotions of another person, we actually start experiencing what that other person feels.

It is so important to be able to have this deeper understanding of our children's feelings because our children need to feel like they are being heard and understood.
