20.01.2022 "The times you yelled or even hit. The times you joined them in a fit. The time you said something that you regret and then just hoped they would forget. The thing you keep saying sorry for but still can't fix. The thing that makes you feel like shit. You did your best. You really try. You need more support, and here is why.. You can recover this, turn it around. You aren't too far; you haven't lost ground. Learn your trauma, triggers, and tools. Reparent yourself; you are worth it too. I know it's easier said than done, but you can create safety even if your journey has just begun." - Kristen Coggins

14.01.2022 Does your child frequently seek tight hugs? Bump into things? Head bang? Walk heavily? Lean into you when sitting next to you? Request lots of blankets? Enjoy r...oughhouse play? Chew things? They could be seeking proprioceptive input. PROPRIOCEPTION is the ability to sense your body’s movements and position in space, through receptors located in the joints. Many of the behaviours listed above involve pressure through the joints, and this is calming for the nervous system (and explains the sense of calm created when a baby is held or swaddled). If your child is engaging in the above behaviours, and it’s not convenient or it’s preventing them from engaging in daily tasks (e.g. head banging is stopping them from getting to sleep, playing too roughly is stopping them from making friends), then here’s how you can give them the input they need. *Note: Some of these activities, particularly those involving active movement by the child, may also wind them up, so play around and see which ones are suitable for your child at each time of the day. You be the judge of what’s suitable for your child’s age, as everyone is different! #proprioception #proprioceptiveinput #sensoryprocessing #sensoryregulation #regulation #arousal #alertness #occupationaltherapy #otforkids #parenting #parentingtips #therapy #therapyforkids #braindevelopment #childdevelopment
