S2 Ep 84: Better Understand Your Kids with Theory of Mind Oct 03, 2022

Show notes

We don't always know what people are thinking or feeling - we're not mind-readers - but we can bolster our understanding. Today we're diving into the Theory of Mind, which refers to our capacity to understand others. It is important for understanding how to approach our children's developmental stage. We start with a wonderful grounding meditation.
