EP 276: Cues of Safety: How to Help when Nothing is Ever Right

Published 1 month ago
Description

Every morning (or afternoon or evening) feels like just one long stream of complaints. Breakfast isn’t right, the bowl isn’t right, SOMETHING is always not right, and no matter what gets fixed, it’s never right enough.

^That perfectly describes a nervous system stuck in protection mode. 

This week’s episode explores how and why nervous systems get stuck and practical ways you can help- even when NOTHING you do seems to help. 

In this episode you will learn:

  • Why your child's reaction is almost never about the thing they're reacting to
  • What it means for the past to show up as a "tsunami" in the present moment
  • Three simple places to start dropping in more felt safety today, even before anything else changes

Next month in The Club we’re hosting a workshop so we can all get together, pull out the Grow Your Child’s Owl Brain with Cues of Safety workbook, and make a real plan for how to increase safety in your child’s stream of the NOW - which eventually does calm the tsunami in the stream of the past
