Have we lost touch with the incredible power that play can afford our lives? In our oh-so-hectic-and-distracted modern world, have we become too busy to play like the generations that came before us? What positive changes could take place if we became more present? Joining Second Mountain Comms' Ben Veal for episode two of the #GoodJourneysPod is Debi John, the founder of Play Healing. Subscribe to our YouTube channel for exclusive video content: ⁠www.youtube.com/@secondmountaincomms Debi is a play consultant, “play pollinator” and the creator of the PAUSE, PLAY, CONNECT framework that inspires parents and carers to play with their children in a modern and memorable way. 'Good Journeys with Second Mountain' is a podcast series filled with inspiring stories from inspiring people. In this episode, Debi talks about the transformative power of play in our busy modern lives as a mechanism for real social impact, why her approach is not about prescribing how to parent but rather providing a framework for deeper connection with our children and one another, and the challenges of remaining present during this modern era of both overwhelming distraction and societal exhaustion.
