20.01.2022 Yes definitely all of these things, perhaps too implicit memories of how we were parented ourselves, sometimes referred to as shark music (just think that shark soundtrack from jaws) that can surface in response to our child’s behaviour First step is recognising and acknowledging the emotions as they rise, taking a step back from the situation and being kind to yourself. Developing this awareness means being less likely to react in the future while strengthening our attachment to our child

14.01.2022 Children are always listening, even if it seems like they're not. Be aware of what you say to them, because it will impact their self esteem as they grow older.

13.01.2022 Our children are in our care for such a short time, and then the world will be in their care. Give them a voice. Teach them to care. Tell them the truth. Open t...heir eyes and hearts and minds to the beautiful and brutal world around them the soul-healing acts of love and generosity and understanding and the heartbreaking acts of hate and greed and fear, the amazing human achievements and the inhumane human suffering. Let’s raise our children to see and recognize and appreciate the gorgeous differences and the stunning sameness of our shared humanity on this little blue planet we share. Let’s grow children with hearts so full of love and hope and kindness that every step they take out into this wide, hurting world is guided by intention and conviction and compassion. We can change the world, my friends, one little heart at a time. -L.R.Knost @flourishinghomesandfamilies Raising Humans Kind: http://t.co/T8goym3P6Z Please respect the work of authors, photographers, and artists.

12.01.2022 I had a very specific event not too long ago that left me on the verge of breakdown. It seemed so silly, but it felt like I was receiving every bit of sensory i...nformation in the room. I was cooking while I had my son watch a cartoon, the oven fan was going, he kept running up to Alexa and requesting songs, my husband walked in to ask me a question, and I was sure I was going to lose it. Immediately, I shouted like my life depended on it please, turn that down...turn it off. This is not the only case of sensory overload I’ve experienced. I’ve noticed it more and more as I’ve become a mother. I’ve swapped silent car rides for car rides entertained by Blippi’s top musical performances, snack requests, and what feels like 100 questions. Some days I take it all in stride, and others I feel like I’m drowning in sensory input. Given how much I’ve noticed sensory overload in my life since becoming a mother, I thought it would be a great opportunity to discuss this week. Have you experienced this? Share with me

04.01.2022 A SURVIVAL GUIDE FOR SENSITIVE MAMAS WITH SPIRITED KIDS I remember the exact moment when I learned about the concept of the Highly Sensitive Person. I was in ...my mid-20s, and all of a sudden every quirk that I wished I could change about myself was made clear. All of the typical kid activities that my peers seemed to love that I suffered through made sense. My intense need for solitude and quiet was explained. In essence, I was given validation that who I am and what I need is normal. More than just normal, it’s what makes me who I am. I could finally give myself permission to stay home on a Saturday night to read because that rejuvenated me so much more than a night out with friends. Ten years later, I’ve learned that being a highly sensitive mama has great benefits. I’m attuned to my 7-year-old’s moods. I’m a pretty good listener. We have long talks and I’m content to stay home and read aloud to him all day. Read full article here https://bit.ly/3jbKG0X . More articles on highly sensitive kids....
