Ep. 101: How to Influence- Not Control- Behavior

Episode 101 Published 3 years, 4 months ago
Description

Understanding the difference between having influence over behavior vs. control can help you get clear on what to focus on. 

One of the trickier parts of the work I do is talking so much with parents about attachment, their role in co-regulation, and felt-safety, without snagging into parent’s shame about every parent's deepest worry- that their child’s baffling behaviors are all their fault.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What it means to influence, not control
  • What your real responsibility is in influencing behavior
  • Responsibility does not equal blame
  • How to acknowledge influence without shame

Underneath every behavior is something happening in the body, specifically in the nervous system. When we support the body first, behavior often begins to shift. Even for kids who don't have a sensory processing disorder!
