CALM AND CONNECTED - EPISODE 115
Today I want to focus on the coping style of distraction. Distraction is really focused on play and fun activities to help us manage big thoughts, emotions and feelings, but let’s focus on the adult piece of play in this episode. Play is a natural stress reliever which can have a big impact on relationships and work therefore we could all do with a little more fun and play in our lives. I want you to consider; what is fun for you? What can you do today to help relieve some stress?
The topics I cover in this episode are:
Meeting Stuart Brown at a play conference
What kids can learn through play
Play isn’t just for kids so why is it frowned upon for adults?
What does play look like for adults?
Why play at work is essential
Examples of adults adding joy to their work in the airport and with UberEats
How play can resolve disagreements
