"Hurt people, hurt people." This powerful and profound phrase holds so much truth. When you are a victim of any form of trauma, and you have the healing and ability needed to step back and look at the person who caused you pain, you can often find that the hurtful behavior patterns that someone exhibits stem from pain that another person had caused them earlier in their lives. We asked Tejal to join us today to specifically talk about Narcissistic behaviors and how these negative behavior patterns could be broken.Tejal Patel is the host of the Time-In Talks Podcast, and author of The Mom’s Choice Gold Award winning book Meditation for Kids: 40 Activities to Manage Emotions, Ease Anxiety and Stay Focused and motivational speaker.Her doable approach to family meditation and mindfully handling meltdowns (yours and your kids) sets her apart from the traditional self-help crowd and makes her a go-to expert for modern parents who want to NamaSLAY stress, snap less and raise mindful kids too.*******Tejal V Patel is a former divorce attorney turned certified mindful parenting coach, breathwork, meditation and mindfulness expert for families.Tejal has appeared in NBC10, Fox 29, Phl17, Pix 11, Yoga Journal, Parents Magazine, The Huffington Post, Us Weekly Magazine among other places spreading awareness about the Kids Can Meditate movementtejalvpatel.comhttps://instagram.com/tejalvpatel*******The Third Place Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners into the hard conversations that we have a tendency to avoid.We “go there” on things such as…How anger is beautifulHow to find presence amidst chaosHow to have difficult conversationsHow to be an allyHow to live with griefThe Third Place is a safe place where curiosity is encouraged, differences are welcomed, and empathy is embraced through healthy dialogue.We've forgotten how to talk to each other… Life has become polarized and dualistic - you’re either with me or against me.
