Today, I talk to Darcey Fairchild, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the first Certified Mindful Parenting Teacher! She takes us through her journey of healing and how this path led her to the Mindful Parenting Teacher Training. She shares how she is using her Mindful Parenting skills to help families change the dynamic in their homes, as well as how it has positively affected her own family. *New!* Watch video clips from this episode on the Mindful Mama Youtube channel!

Takeaways: We all experience challenges that overwhelm our skills and abilities. Effective communication and problem solving are critical pieces to parenting mindfully. We have to accept our own humanity and reactivity before we can do the same for our children. Darcey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who began her specialization in Perinatal Mental Health after experiencing the distress of postpartum anxiety. Her own healing journey began with yoga and trail running and ultimately led to the practice of mindfulness and a holistic embrace of health. She lives in rural Montana with her partner and five-year-old son. Darcey is currently working to embrace her partner’s efforts to establish a hobby farm of sorts.
