#54, Part 2 — When Fun is Fun, Not Avoidance

When our kid parts get overwhelmed, finding “serotonin hits” in fun activities, video games and bright colored paint for example, can be just the thing. Today Frank and Jess share how taking care of their 10 year olds has changed with growth and healing. Connecting in real time with each other, in this episode they demonstrate how connection leads to healing… and then fun is simply fun! Recorded 9/20/23 New to Feel This? We're so happy you're here!
