Soothing the Storm: Co-Regulation Questions from Caregivers

Описание: In Part 1, we explored the foundations of co-regulation and practical strategies for supporting children through emotional storms by first finding calm within yourself. In this follow-up session, we dive into the real questions caregivers ask—about what works, what’s hard, and how to stay grounded when emotions run high.

Dr. Wendy Manel joins us to unpack topics such as:
• How co-regulation strategies apply across all ages—and even beyond parenting
• Understanding your child and why it matters
• Recognizing when your own “upstairs brain” goes offline and what to do about it
• Staying calm and connected when you feel triggered or overwhelmed
• Navigating challenges like single parenting, co-parenting across two homes, and safety in the moment
• Why “connect, correct, then redirect” isn’t about letting kids “get away” with poor behavior—it’s about teaching and repair

This conversation is packed with practical insights, validation, and encouragement for caregivers who want to build emotional safety and resilience in their families. Join us as we answer your most pressing questions and help you feel more confident—even in the toughest moments.
