We’ve all been there…

A long day that wore our patience down, the house was a mess again, and then suddenly something our family member does triggers us and sends us spinning. Before we know it, anger has gotten the best of us, we’ve yelled, lashed out, and probably said something we didn't mean.

It’s not our finest moment as a parent and although we cannot go back in time, we can apologize and work on being more mindful so we react better in the future.

My guest this week is well versed in helping parents become more mindful so they can be present for their families.

Hunter Clarke-Fields, is the host of the Mindful Mama podcast, creator of the Mindful Parenting course, and author of the bestselling book Raising Good Humans: A Mindful Guide to Breaking the Cycle of Reactive Parenting and Raising Kind, Confident Kids.

Through these resources, she helps parents bring more calm and peace into their daily lives.

Hunter has over twenty years of experience in meditation practices and has taught mindfulness to thousands worldwide. She is the mother of two active daughters, who challenge her everyday to hone her craft!

I learned a lot while recording this episode and again during the editing process. It felt healing to hear her advice again after I had processed it the first time so I could process it again and go deeper.

This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover:

• What mindful parenting means
• How to avoid the trap of trying to be supermom
• Tips for raising kind, confident kids
• Moments when Hunter felt triggered and how she handled it
• Simple steps to follow when we feel like we’re about to lose our temper
