And, there's something we can do about it!  Find Rebecca www.connectfulness.com Her new podcast www.whydoesmypartner.com

She and Laura discuss getting out of our heads and into our bodies to connect with our partners, other people in our lives and as therapists, how we can connect with our clients. Rebecca explains how using animal-assisted therapy with dogs and horses helps us understand our emotions as shown in our bodies. Rebecca describes her five-step process of Connectfulness, a research-based practice she developed and uses with her couples therapy clients. She talks about all the things we do to avoid uncomfortable feelings and how those things interfere with connection.  Resources http://connectfulness.com Please consider supporting Therapy Chat by becoming a member on Patreon!

This is a minisode of Therapist Clubhouse. I wanted to give you this as an extra Mother’s Day present. I was on my friend Rebecca Wong’s podcast a little while ago. On her podcast, The Practice Of Being Seen, she takes deep dives with change makers. We took a dive into motherhood. I’m going to give you a little snippet of the conversation now, and if you want to hear the whole conversation and check out Rebecca’s other wonderful episodes, you can find them all wherever you’re listening to this. It’s called The Practice Of Being Seen. This segment starts right when I’m talking about whether I need to produce this podcast every week or not, which is really about the rhythms of life. After this we go into race and privilege, creating a business, and finding time and energy for what matters.

Be sure to get an intro to Mindfulness with my cheat sheet and bonus audio sample here: http://www.subscribepage.com/w6h6i6 Overview: Rebecca Wong is a relationship therapist, consultant, and cohost of the Practice Of Being Seen podcast. She's also the creator of Connectfulness, a research-based practice that encourages you to explore and embrace every aspect of your humanity – including everything that’s marvelous and all that’s messy. Rebecca has discovered that the meaning we make of our life’s story is where it all comes together. But staying engaged in the process of discovering that meaning –  that is often our greatest challenge. So she invites her clients to get curious about what works and what doesn't to make space for compassion, intimacy and the ability to slow down and capture the littlest moments.  Rebecca believes that when you truly see yourself, you create the ripple that allows you to be the change you wish to see in the world - and that invites everyone around you to do the same. And she dreams that we can collectively learn, grow and lean into the possibility of leaving behind a more resilient and compassionate planet then we were born into. Rebecca practices as an LCSW-R in NY's Hudson Valley where she also resides with her husband, their spunky children and a handful of four legged furry mischief makers.  To help us build and nurture those unshakeable connections that enhance our lives, Rebecca gave us four steps:  1. Practice NOTICING what you're feeling and what you need 2. Practice NAMING those feelings and needs 3. Practice AWARENESS so that you can see what to do differently  4. Practice KINDNESS to yourself and each other Resources Mentioned: http://www.drsallynazari.com  http://connectfulness.com http://practiceofbeingseen.com  I would love to hear what experiences you have about nurturing those unshakeable connections so that you can better celebrate your life!

Are you caught up in the frenzy of day to day modern life? Are you busy, rushed, hurried and lacking time? How much time do you spend with your kids? How much time do your children spend away from you? As the year 2017 is coming to an end, I invite you to rethink your priorities. This is a good time to pause and set new intentions for the coming year. How do you want to spend your days? Where does your attention go? We move through scenes like ghosts, without fully experiencing the moments and the events. We are rushing from place to place, constantly doing something... Children are overbooked and over scheduled. But the truth of the matter is we need to rethink our priorities, we need to change our lifestyle, we need to slow down, we need to have ample time for for children to play freely. We need to provide time and space for our children to decompress, experience downtime and just be bored.  Bored is the gateway to creativity. Not only our children do not have time and space to be bored but they not have time for daydreaming, processing what has happened to them during the day. Highlights: -how to recognize our relational patterns and triggers -we heal together -fighting with your partner is not a bad thing -the importance of repair after a fight -how to help children in transitions times -why we need to slow down -why is play so vital -what is slipping away from our lives -the importance of doing nothing, having downtie -boredom is not a bad thing Also, my wonderful guest walks us through a simple sensory awareness exercise.

Sometimes, the best way to see yourself is to see yourself reflected in someone else’s eyes. When you launch a new podcast, sometimes the best way to explain your vision is to have a friend come on air to ask you about it. We invited our friend and colleague Robert Cox to interview us about our mission and our vision for the Practice of Being Seen. Robert is a therapist in the Kansas City area specializing in trauma, addictions and autism. Having been through his own trauma work and addictions, he has spent the past several decades learning to live in the messy and be seen himself while trying to help others do the same. You can hear him on his two podcasts, Mindful Recovery and Listening to Autism.
