Why Summer Feels Like a Threat (Even When You Love Your Kids)
from The Golden Spark Podcast with Stacy Goldstein · host Stacy Goldstein
Every year the end of the school year arrives and underneath all the excitement there is something else sitting quietly in the chest of the overwhelmed Christian mom: dread. Not because she does not love her kids. Because her nervous system has been here before and it remembers. In this episode we get to the bottom of why summer feels threatening even when it is wanted, what the loss of routine is actually doing to the nervous system, and what it means that your body is already bracing before the first day of summer break even begins. If you have ever felt guilty for dreading a season you are supposed to love, this episode is going to give you something better than guilt: an explanation.
