DISCOVERING THE STRESSORS:

WHAT ARE THEIR BLOCKS?

What gets in the way of their peace?

 

Bringing your perspective, how can you help guide them to greater balance and calm?

WHAT ARE THEIR UNIQUE GIFTS AND PASSIONS?

When you’re looking at your wild, out-of-control fifteen-year-old, hyperactive infant, or young child, it may be difficult to see through the chaos to their unique brand of phenomenal, yet it will be there.

 

What do they get lost in? What fascinates them? What do they love? Where do they show incredible awareness?

HOW CAN YOU HELP REGULATE/GROUND THEM SO THAT THEY CAN CHILL?

  • This is different from identifying blocks and obstacles.
  • Grounding helps them fill up, calm down, find peace, and fall into alignment with themselves so their unique gifts and passions can blossom.
  • They crave balance, lightness, and fun, yet often have no idea how to attain it.
  • The ways each child regulates is different.
  • Spending time in nature is a great way to help them center.
  • Monitoring their stressors helps keep them calm.
