Even good parents get to a breaking point at times and get reactive instead of connected.
Here are three things you can do to help your nervous system reset...
1. Take a parent time out--give yourself a bit of space to breathe and reset
2. Invite your kids to have an intentional silly tantrum with you. It usually ends in laughter and releases some of the tension
3. Take a silent hug reset to help your bodies reconnect and regulate
In this video, you'll learn about the myth of parental control, and how focusing on controlling our own behavior rather than our children's behavior can lead to a more secure attachment relationship and greater self-control in our children.
The idea of toughening up your children to deal with the world only makes you their first bully, stripping them of their sense of belonging with you; treat your children with respect and connection so that they instinctively protect themselves from unkind and cruel treatment.
In this video, learn how understanding and addressing the underlying needs behind a child's behavior can lead to a more secure attachment and empowering parent-child relationship.
