Ep. 29: Mindsight, the Wheel of Awareness, and Teens & Social Media with Dr. Dan Siegel

Happy Day, Friend! 

If you struggle with carrying emotional baggage around and it impacts your relationships at home, school, or work, or with allowing all the minutia of life, including the endless web of stories we create that can leave us feeling drained, lacking purpose and meaning, and often times repeating negative family cycles, then this episode is for you! 

I had the honor of chatting with the multiple New York Time’s bestselling author and clinical professor of psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine, Dr. Dan Siegel about his work relating to the functions of the mind – Mindsight and the Wheel of Awareness. 

We talk about all things of the mind, including: 

~ what Mindsight and the Wheel of Awareness are and how we can practically use them in our roles as parents, educators, and leaders

~ the teenage brain, the adolescent pruning process, and social media 

~ how to cultivate strong and confident teens in the digital age

~ how to develop a healthy relationship with technology 

~ tips and tools for parents, educators, and leaders to develop more mindsight, awareness, connection, and openness in their life

This podcast episode is brought to you by my new program – Mindfulness Education University for Educators.
