Good morning,
I occasionally get the opportunity to run a workshop for parents on the biochemistry of the adolescent brain. The goal of the workshop is to help parents and adults who work with teenagers to gain an understanding of why they behave the way they do.
The workshop is called "What were you thinking?" because that is typically the first question adults ask a teenager after they have made a poor choice (typically ending with something being broken).
But that question isn't limited to adults who are talking to adolescents. It’s even more common when we question ourselves after we have made a mistake.
And when we ask ourselves this question, it's not usually in a kindhearted or understanding way. Instead, it is an exasperated "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!?!?!?"
Approaching our past choices with this sort of harsh judgment and recrimination can make transformation and healing very difficult.
In this week’s podcast I share a totally different way of approaching poor choices you have made in the past that will help you to create space for lasting healing and release.
You can use the same approach with other people, giving you the ability to hear them more clearly and to be truly heard.

I would love to hear your thoughts on the approach and how it worked for you.
Blessings,
Gene
