We often assume children only learn the calming strategies we directly teach them, but more often than not, they learn and repeat the strategies they see us doing on a daily basis. If we slam things when we are frustrated, they will slam things when they feel frustrated. If we breathe when we feel frustrated, they will be more likely to breathe if they feel frustrated.

Whomever you believe to be in charge of your feelings, you have put in charge of you. Reclaim your power by practicing the pause. No one is safe with judgment. Until you accept the moment, you will continue to judge and blame. Judgment blocks the relationship and predisposes us to punish. Active calming helps us shift our perceptions from judgment to positive intent.

Emotions play a part in the ability to learn, and Conscious Discipline provides the information adults need to understand our own emotions first so we can self-regulate and then help those around us regulate their emotions (known as co-regulation). The first step is to acknowledge that emotions happen. You don’t need to have all the answers; just be willing to be unafraid of emotions and give them air rather than sweep them under the rug. One way we support children with their emotions in Consci

Before we can help children learn to manage their feelings, we have to learn how to manage and accept our own feelings. Listen in as Dr. Becky Bailey shares a humorous, but impactful example of this concept. 🫧 As she describes, each emotion starts off as bodily sensations, such as butterflies in our stomach or tightness in our throat. These sensations appear unconsciously in our face, body and tone of voice. They hijack our perceptions, and we become the emotion. When an emotion takes over our

Practice isn’t just what happens in the moment; it’s the preparation we do before the moment ever arrives.If you were a football coach, you wouldn’t wait until game day to teach a new play. You’d practice it throughout the week, observe what worked and what didn’t, and then adjust your next practice based on what you learned.
