How Other Cultures Teach Emotional Control - Pt 2

In this episode Lauren continues her discussion of how other cultures raise their children and teach them emotional control. She talks about the use of “awe” in calming down yourself and your kiddo. There are things we see everyday and don’t notice, beautiful views for instance, that if you open your eyes and look at them with awe bring you back to the present. So, take your kids outside to calm them down. When they are old enough and have their calming strategies in place, ignore the behavior. Use this in a mindful way once they are old, around 6 or 7, and know how to calm themselves. Lauren answers this week’s listener question during the episode: How do I prepare my child for the transition between toddlerhood and beginning school? Try-at-home tip:  Go outsideMentioned in this episode:Bringing up Bebe - Pamela DruckermanHunt, Gather, Parent - Michaeleen DoucleffThere's No Such Thing as Bad Weather - Linda Akeson McGurkAchtung Baby - Sara ZaskeThe Danish Way of Parenting - Jessica Joelle Alexander, Dissing SandahlMonica SweeneyOther related resources from The Behavior Hub: Blog Post: Children’s Emotions: How They Work and Behavior Strategies to TryPodcast:Neuroscience of emotionsAll the Coping/Calming StrategiesHelpfulness: How to Make Kids HelpfulHow to Make Kids CooperateInstilling Intrinsic Motivation in Your KidsHow Other Cultures Teach Emotional Control - Pt 1Our Online Courses: From Conflict to Calm: How to Communicate with Challenging ChildrenFrom Wild Emotions to Tamed Feelings: How to Self-RegulateDo you have a question?
