I'm so delighted that Carly Facius has returned to the podcast for the 4th time. She was also on episodes 149, 154, 159, and 199.
Carly is a mother of three, Registered Midwife, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, holds a Master of Primary Maternity Care, and is an Aware Parenting instructor.
Carly shares about her journey of stopping breastfeeding at night with her first and second child, and what she will do differently with her third child.
We talked a lot about the importance of honouring both a child's needs and a mother's needs, and the relationship between the two, and the uniqueness of each journey.

As this very long sleep series draws to a close, in this episode, I share some quick sleep suggestions for parents of a baby, toddler, child, or teen.
Babies, children, and teens need to be both tired and relaxed to sleep restfully.
Relaxation is created in two ways:
~ through a sense of safety (which is met by having closeness, especially in the early years),
~ and by releasing any pent-up painful feelings that naturally bubble to the surface to be expressed when they are tired.
If children don't feel safe, they won't feel relaxed, and will need to dissociate to go to sleep.
If children have accumulated painful feelings bubbling to the surface that aren't released, they won't feel relaxed, and will need to dissociate to go to sleep.
If they dissociate to fall asleep, the sleep is not likely to be restful.
I'm so excited to tell you that the third book in my trilogy of Aware Parenting books – Sound Sleep and Secure Attachment with Aware Parenting – is out, and it's already a bestseller in both paperback and Kindle editions! The audiobook will be coming out next year!

Woohooo! It's the 200th episode!
Thank you to everyone who has listened to this podcast, whether this is the first time you've listened, or the 200th!
I'm celebrating with Belynda Smith, who is not only the Editor of my trilogy of books, but also an Aware Parenting instructor and Hand in Hand Instructor.
We chat together about all different aspects of the book.
I loved this conversation so much!
The book will be coming out this month, and more news about it will be coming soon!
You can find out about Belynda's work, including her monthly online listening circle and 1:1 Aware Parenting support at https://belyndasmith.com.au/ and you can email her at: [email protected]

I'm so delighted that Carly Facius has returned to the podcast for the 4th time. She was also on episodes 149, 154, and 159.
Carly is a mother of three, Registered Midwife, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, holds a Master of Primary Maternity Care, and is an Aware Parenting instructor.
Carly starts off by sharing her own journey with sleep with her first baby, and how surprised she was that after being so connected with her intuition and trusting her body and baby for the pregnancy and birth and for the first four months, that for a week, she started following the concept of sleep windows.
Living in Indonesia, with an Indonesian husband, all around her she saw something very different to the practices she'd read about online of helping babies sleep according to the clock.
She really didn't enjoy that week. The intensity of the focus on sleep took her away from being present with her baby, and led her to think that there was something wrong with what she was doing, and that there was something wrong with her baby.
After that week, she shifted her practice entirely, and felt so much more relaxed. She saw babies and children sleeping everywhere and anywhere in Indonesia and it made so much sense that the routine she'd created in that week wasn't helpful at all.
We talk about co-sleeping, and 'bedtimes', and how common it is in a very high percentage of the world's population for babies and children to co-sleep and for there not to be early bedtimes.
We also talk about how Aware Parenting makes it possible for everyone in the family to share a bed together, and to all sleep restfully, without the baby or child moving around restlessly, or needing to be in a particular position, eg. under a parent's arm or on top of the parent.
She talks about what a difference it made for her when she shifted from Classical Attachment Parenting to Aware Parenting when her son was 18 months old, including her partner being able to support their son to go to sleep.
Carly shares about her experience of listening to her third child's feelings since birth has made, especially on his sleep, including while consistently travelling. He slept peacefully, even with noise around, which was very different to tiptoeing away when her first baby was sleeping. She also enjoyed the freedom of her partner being able to support their baby to go to sleep right from early on.
Carly also talks about her own experience of working with parents from all around the world and from a wide variety of parenting beliefs and practices, including from families who had been to sleep consultants prior, and how she supported to find ways that resonated with them in relation to sleep.
We talk about the importance of parents listening in to their own yeses and noes in terms of what resonates with them about sleep theories and practices.
Carly shares about the loveliness of knowing that with Aware Parenting, whatever we've done in the past, we can help our babies heal, and we can also heal from past experiences.
She shares how her perspective on bedtimes has completely changed, and how she invites parents to focus on their own sleep.
She says, "everyone's rested in my family."

Episode 198: The power of play before sleep with Vivian Viester by Marion Rose, PhD.
-
I'm so delighted that Belynda Smith is back on the podcast, after she interviewed me about The Emotional Life of Babies in episode 151.
Belynda is an Aware Parenting instructor and a Hand in Hand Parenting Instructor. She is also the Editor of my trilogy of books.
In this episode, Belynda shares about her passion for – and deep experience with – the vital importance of receiving lots of listening if we are wanting to listen to our children's feelings. Belynda shares about the details of Listening Partnerships, which is a term from Hand in Hand Parenting and which offers specific parameters to create deeper safety and healing.
Belynda shares about her experience of coming to Hand in Hand Parenting when her children were in early childhood, after experiencing both frequent night waking (every 40 minutes) and, once her second child was born, her own unexpressed feelings starting to bubble up.
She shares the breakthrough experiences she had when she first came across Hand in Hand Parenting, and when she had her first session with a Hand in Hand Parenting Instructor and Trainer, Ann Hefferan, which inspired her to go on and become a Hand in Hand Parenting Instructor herself.
Belynda shares about the next part of her journey, and discovering Aware Parenting.
She also talks about the process of having lots of LP support when editing the books.
She shares about her experience of Aware Parenting and sleep and her teens, and the subtle difference between Hand in Hand Parenting and Aware Parenting with sleep.
We also discuss what we experience is the vital foundation in parenting.
Belynda has a new free offering on play coming up. She also has a monthly online listening circle and offers 1:1 Aware Parenting support.
You can find out more about her and her work at https://belyndasmith.com.au/ and https://belynda-smith.newzenler.com/aware-parenting -
I'm so delighted that Kim Cousins came back on the podcast again. Kim was on episode 136 and 176 and I so highly recommend listening to those episodes if you haven't already.
Kim is an Aware Parenting instructor who used to work in a perinatal mental health unit and has an abundance of experience of working with mothers and babies and families in general.
In this episode, she also shares her own experience with sleep as a mother, with experience of being taught sleep training, then moving to Classical Attachment Parenting, and then to Aware Parenting.
We'd love to send so much compassion if you are feeling exhausted and desperate for sleep, and if you have used sleep training. Throughout the episode, we highlight the importance of deep compassion for parents.
Please check in with your willingness to listen to this episode, and reach out for listening support if it helps you connect with painful feelings.
The focus on this episode is knowing that there really is a third choice, and that parents really don't need to choose between secure attachment and sleep.
Kim shares about how when her daughter (who is now 8), was a baby, she slept very little in the day, and Kim had someone visit from a sleep centre to teach some sleep training.
Kim shares about how painful the experience was, and how she didn't want to do it afterwards, and thought that she was a failure and that her daughter wasn't sleeping because she was not reading tiredness signs accurately or missing sleep windows.
Kim shares about all the pressure and the lack of support that led to a diagnosis of postnatal depression and anxiety.
Kim dived into understanding attachment theory, and when her son was born, she practiced Classical Attachment Parenting with him.
When he was 12 months old, he was waking lots at night and she decided to do my sleep course.
She listened to him crying in her arms for about 45 minutes to an hour and he slept through the whole night!
Kim shares moving stories about supporting mothers to listen to their babies crying in arms, and what a difference it makes to receive that kind of support.
Kim also talks about the importance of support, our own inner work, and lots more fascinating parts of listening to feelings and the relationship of that with sleep.

We recorded this episode a few weeks ago.
I'm so delighted to share this episode with Laura Pires Brammer.
Laura is an Aware Parenting instructor in Germany, and she shares about her experience with Aware Parenting and sleep.
She talks about the powerful connection she had with Aletha Solter's book 'The Aware Baby', and now she started to listen to her baby's healing-feelings after only reading a couple of pages.
Laura explains so beautifully how she saw the differences in her daughter once she started practicing Aware Parenting – being more present during the day, more relaxed while sleeping, and sleeping for longer periods, as well as the beautiful connection and eye contact between the two of them.
Laura then shares about the process of increasing her understanding of Aware Parenting and embodying the practices more and more.
Laura talks about the deep inner work that Aware Parenting invited her to do, as is common for most of us practicing this way of parenting.
She shares about the contrast between feeling the power of having this information, and the powerlessness of at times not knowing how to put it into practice.
We then talk about now common it is that, once we start practicing Aware Parenting, our own unexpressed feelings from our own childhood come bubbling up to be heard.
Laura talks about how a lot of her feelings bubbled up in the night time, and how, as a result, she saw improvements in her own sleep.
We talk about the difference in ourselves between the sleep after crying or laughing, and the sleep after distracting and dissociating.
Laura sharrd how different her experience was with sleep and listening to feelings with her second born daughter.
I so highly recommend Laura's beautiful work.
She works in English, German, and Dutch.
You can find her on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/laura.rpb
and Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/laurapiresbrammer/
She has an offer called Magical Nights, for mothers with babies, who want to apply Aware Parenting to their sleep journey.
She also has offerings for parents with Corinne Sprecher, another Aware Parenting instructor, about practicing and embodying Aware Parenting. -
In another episode in the second sleep series, I share about my own experiences with sleep as a mother.
I talk about the way I changed thinking about sleep before becoming a mother.
I share about how I helped my daughter sleep for longer chunks when she was about 9 months old.
I tell the story of the two challenges I had with sleep - one when my daughter was a toddler, and one when my son was in his early teens, and why those were related to some nuances of Aware Parenting that I hadn't yet understood.
I share about how Aware Parenting helped me respond to my own feelings differently when I woke up in the middle of the night.
I still have mentoring places for the second half of 2024, for people who deeply resonate with Aware Parenting, and with The Marion Method for their reparenting. Message me on IG https://www.instagram.com/_marion_rose_/ or FB

This is a special episode that was recorded three years ago and that was on my Psychospiritual Podcast, about Aware Parenting and homeschooling.
If you know Chiara Rossetti and haven't heard the news yet, I invite you to pause and have a friend close before reading more.....
......
......
......
Chiara is no longer with us.
If you knew her, I'm sending so much love to you, however you're feeling now.
Chiara was an Aware Parenting instructor who lived and breathed Aware Parenting.
She was an attachment play genius.
I shared about her, the profound effect she had on the Aware Parenting community, and my friendship with her on my social media recently.
She and her children had the most amazing Aware Parenting and natural learning journey.
She supported so many parents with Aware Parenting and attachment play in particular.
She supported so many Aware Parenting instructors.
We had talked for years about creating an attachment play book some day, and had reconnected with that again recently.
I am so deeply sad and will miss her so much.
I felt so called to share this episode with you, where she shares about how she came across Aware Parenting (when her son was waking up every 45 minutes), and then talked about her journey with Aware Parenting and Natural Learning (this was part of a series of podcasts on AwP and homeschooling). She also shared about sleep, and teens.
So much of what she said is so poignant.
If you want to watch the FB live we did on attachment play together that we mention at the end of the episode, you can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/100063796862144/videos/246519440294072
So much love to you.

In this episode, I share listeners' questions and my answers, for toddlers of one year old to children who are seven years old.
The questions include:
"How can I help my one year old release big feelings before and during sleep without making her feel powerless? Is me holding her helpful?"
"I'd love to hear you talk about breastfeeding to sleep and night wakings and night weaning. (My little one is 15 months old.)"
"Why is my 23 month old breastfed co-sleeping toddler waking at 12, 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 am?"
"How can I help our three year old who needs to be in a certain position with a certain parent in order to sleep, and cries if that changes (while also supporting her to stay securely attached)?"
"I feel resentful lying next to my 4 year old to help her go to sleep and I also have a baby. What can I do?"
"What would you suggest as a gentle encouragement for a 5 year old to begin sleeping in their own bed so I can get up early before he does?
"I'm a nanny and the seven year old I look after in the evenings refuses to go to bed when I am baby sitting and her mum goes out."

In this episode, I talk about the chronotypes of the early bird and the night owl.
I also explain how you can differentiate each of these from the effects of accumulated healing-feelings.
I also share about the possibility that both chronotypes and accumulated feelings can be happening, and what you can do it this is the case.

In this episode, I talk about the most common reason why babies and toddlers:
wake up with the slightest noise or movement;
wake up after one sleep cycle;
wake up crying;
are restless at night;
wake frequently;
appear to resist sleep;
take a long time to go to sleep.
If you're walking on eggshells to make sure they don't wake up, this might interest you.
I explain how quiet and stillness can indicate relaxation or mild dissociation, why that's important for sleep, and how you can differentiate between the two.
I share about needs-feelings and healing-feelings, and why being able to differentiate between these is also vital to understanding why it's really common for babies and children to be mildly dissociated before sleep.
I talk about why we don't use the terms 'soothing' and 'self-soothing' in Aware Parenting, and how this relates to understanding mild dissociation.
I also share why and how listening to healing-feelings before sleep leads to deep relaxation and restful sleep.

In this episode, I talk to Maru Rojas again. Maru is an Aware Parenting instructor in the UK and is originally from Mexico. She was a guest on the podcast on episode 139, also talking about sleep. If you haven't listened to that episode, I highly recommend listening to it after this one.
Maru shares her journey of sleep with her daughter and son, as she gradually increased the depth of her understanding and practice of Aware Parenting.
In particular, she talks about her daughter's night waking and moving all around the bed as a toddler.
She shares how she stopped breastfeeding at night, and about her increasing awareness of the surprising control pattern that was the lynchpin for more sleep.
She also shares more about the huge difference in sleep between her daughter and her son, with whom she started practicing Aware Parenting with at birth, alongside having much more understanding and experience with Aware Parenting by that time.
Maru is also a teacher of Elimination Communication and offers courses and 1:1 consultations in both EC and Aware Parenting.
You can find out more about her work and can contact her at: https://parenttogether.co.uk/ and https://www.instagram.com/_maru.rojas_/ -
In this episode, I share why Aware Parenting doesn't include the terms 'overtired', 'wake windows', and 'sleep regression', and what we perceive is going on when these terms are used.
Because Aware Parenting has such different ways of understanding what's going on with sleep, it doesn't use a lot of terminology commonly used in other parenting paradigms.
