Resources for Infants Educarers (RIE) is a parenting style based on the idea that parents and caregivers should have respect for even the youngest of infants. First developed by Magda Gerber in the 1970s, RIE encourages parents to trust their babies and toddlers to participate and play with minimal parental intervention. Parents remain aware of children's behavior and needs while allowing them to explore and grow. 

Gentle parenting is an evidence-based peaceful, soft style of parenting that focuses on establishing a collaborative parent-child relationship. Parents practice empathy, respect, understanding, and healthy boundary-setting with their children. Through consistency and compassion, parents work to encourage their children to become self-aware and express themselves in socially appropriate ways.

Anxiety dreams are unpleasant dreams that cause distress. They generally revolve around stressful things that a person is dealing with when awake.

Infidelity often creates instability, loss of trust, and increased conflict in a relationship. For many individuals, it is hard to think that a relationship can survive infidelity and part of the healing process involves reflecting on what occurred and why. Most importantly, relationships can survive infidelity when both parties are willing to work together on healing and move forward in the relationship.
