The Nuture Revolution
Listen
With the deluge of new information about trauma, the nervous system, and secure attachment, many of us are deeply engaged in mental health awareness. We are reevaluating ourselves and our histories and exploring how our experiences have contributed to our issues with anxiety, depression and addiction. Many of us discover that our trauma is developmental trauma that comes from the way we were cared for as babies, from conception to age three. Our culture has praised and encouraged “low nurture parenting" for generations.This includes sleep training, dismissing emotions, lack of physical closeness and overuse of swaddles, swings, walkers, saucers and more. Greer Kirshenbaum PhD has combined her academic training with her experience as a doula and mother to lead The Nurture Revolution: a movement to nurture our babies’ brains to revolutionize mental health. She wants families, professionals, and workplaces to understand how early caregiving experience can boost mental wellness and diminish depression, anxiety and addiction in adulthood. Dr. Kirshenbaum trained at Columbia University, New York University and Yale University.
