1
Good morning, it's Chika.
2
Feels a little weird to say that.
3
I actually had a little episode I wanted to share with you today.
4
It reminded me of something important, and so I thought maybe it could be a reminder for you as well.
5
So the other day, Pudding got quite upset over something.
6
I tried to stay calm, and I did prevent myself from getting angrier, you know, kind of attacking her for her tantrum.
7
But because it lasted so long and I couldn't really help her through it,
8
I started getting frustrated with myself and upset and doubting everything I knew.
9
I had these beliefs about parenting and kind of the things that I value.
10
But sometimes when it doesn't work out, you start wondering if you're doing the right thing, which is the hard thing about parenting.
11
You just kind of have to try your best, right?
12
But that was not my best.
13
And so I started feeling guilty and sad and frustrated and all these emotions.
14
And I kind of got stuck there.
15
And we had plans to go out later that day.
16
And I was just like, there's no way I can get in the mood to go out.
17
I am just so upset right now.
18
That trivial thing that
19
Pudding was upset about was affecting me just as much or even more than her.
20
So I was like, okay, I just need to calm down.
21
I sat down and I looked out the window
22
and I catch kind of the leaves blowing in the wind on the trees.
23
And all of a sudden, I feel space in my mind.
24
What was filled with emotion and tears and craziness just kind of, it was like the wind outside kind of blew them away.
25
And I finally had space to think logically, rationally and I was able to call myself down
26
and have a conversation with Pudding about what had happened and kind of clear our understanding.
27
She had her own reasons for getting upset
28
and we were able to share that and kind of get through it
29
and we were able to go out and spend the rest of the day a nice weekend.
30
A couple days later, Pudding has another upset moment
31
and I remembered what had happened to me a few days earlier
32
and so instead of really trying to like convince her
33
that it's okay which we tend to do I think we try to talk our kids through it
34
and when they're emotional they're not in the capacity to listen
35
so instead of trying to talk her through it
36
and be like it's okay just said come with me
37
and we went over to the window we looked outside I was like oh look outside do you see
38
that lady standing and waiting for the bus what shirt is she wearing
39
and I started to just notice things
40
and we talk about it I'd be like did you see
41
that arch over there it looks like a rainbow doesn't it
42
and as I gave her a few of those observations she started observing a few things too
43
and she started talking about it I could see
44
that she now had space in her mind to think clearly
45
and I had actually told her about the experience that I had and I was like next time you get upset.
46
Maybe we should try that.
47
And so she knew that she was doing what I had done a couple days ago.
48
And I was like, did that work?
49
And she's like, yeah.
50
And she was able to calm down.
51
I think a lot of the times we get
52
so wrapped up in what's in front of us and we forget to look out.
53
And sometimes we need to zoom out and kind of realize that this is not everything.
54
And to get a bigger picture, I think it's very easy for us to get lost and stuck in the now,
55
in the present, in the problem, in our feelings.
56
And when you get stuck there and you try to work your way through it, sometimes it doesn't work as well.
57
Sometimes you just need to lock out, create some space in your mind first.
58
It was a really weird feeling because I was so upset this one second.
59
And as soon as I look up and my attention went to the leaves blowing in the wind,
60
it's just like, oh, what was I upset about?
61
It's the weekend.
62
We need to go out and have fun.
63
What am I doing getting so upset about this?
64
And I just got logical and rational again.
65
The next morning, I wrote about that experience and I knew this was something I'd be able to use.
66
I didn't think I'd be able to use it so quickly a couple of days later with pudding.
67
And it was so cool to see that it worked for her too.
68
You know, if you guys ever have a moment where you feel like you're just stuck there looking out
69
and just focusing on something else, giving our attention to something else other than emotions around us, it helps you just to step back.
70
That was a little something, a realization, a reminder that I wanted to share with you today.
71
I hope that it reminded you of something.
72
I hope you felt something.
73
I hope it helped you wake up a little bit.
74
And if you enjoyed this English talk, Let me know in the comments and hopefully more of these to come.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
