Episode 15: Compassion in Aware Parenting with Vivian Viester

In this episode, I am so happy to be having a beautiful conversation with Vivian Viester. Vivian is an Aware Parenting Instructor from The Netherlands, who is currently living in Switzerland. She has an 11 year old son and loves supporting families to practise Aware Parenting with more compassion and offers 1 to 1 sessions, online programs and listening circles. In the episode we talk about how Vivian found Aware Parenting. She shares what compassion means to her and how she has learnt to be more compassionate with herself as a mother. She talks about learning to get everyone’s needs met in the family and acknowledges how hard it is to parent this way when we often don’t have the support we need. We discuss how to bring more compassion to ourselves and our children. For more information about Vivian, please follow her on Instagram and Facebook at Vivian Viester, Aware Parenting
