In this video, I delve into the topic of why our kids trigger us emotionally and how we can regulate those emotions to respond to our children in a calm and compassionate manner.
I explore the reasons why children can push our buttons and evoke our childhood baggage, leading to stress, frustration, and even anger.
HOWEVER, we have the power to recognize these triggers and use strategies such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, taking a break, grounding, and positive self-talk to maintain emotional regulation in the moment.
Take a peep at these tools and learn how to be a more present and patient parent.
