This week on the #8 ranked stress podcast we're talking about how to cope with the loss of a pet.

Sarah writes, among other things, about navigating the grief that comes through losing a pet. By directing addressing the realities of pet relationships (they usually live only a portion of the human life span) Sarah helps us connect with the realities of grief and the opportunities we have to make the most of our time with our pets. She’s had a significant mindfulness practice since 2010 and she’s been writing about techniques for developing mindfulness and self-awareness since 2014; Her book, P.S.

In this episode I share another of my favorite mindfulness tools to help kids widen their green zones and try new things. The green zone is the space where kids are flexible, open and able to adapt. When kids are in their green zone they are willing to try new things. When kids are stressed or in new situations their green zones can shrink. As parents and caregivers, we can help kids develop awareness and tools to navigate moments that are beyond their green zones and feel chaotic or rigid. With simple examples and a clear explanation of what a green zone is, this episode invites you to read your child's stress signals and respond in a supportive way.Lindsay Miller is known for her talent show suitcase tricks and infectious laugh.
