As parents of atypical kids, we know, when it RAINS, it pours. 

In the process of living a life of meaning, my vulnerability arises. Emotionally raw places become exposed, and my precarious serenity is challenged not only by my relationship with my son, but by life in general. 

Join me in a self-compassion process which has helped me immensely to heal my underlying emotional wounds. Recognize, allow, investigate and nurture your uncomfortable feelings, and then saturate your nervous system with compassion. I first learned RAIN from Tara Brach. I have added the stage of Saturate, in place of After the RAIN. 

I have found that having a small community of parents who understand is essential to my wellbeing. Join our Mindfully Parenting Atypical Kids Community https://www.facebook.com/groups/3229904633801703/?source_id=400903940032482
