from Motheroo Podcast · host MotherooHQ
A calm brain is a connected brain. In this episode, we unpack Dan Siegel’s Upstairs/Downstairs Brain model so parents can finally make sense of those “zero to one hundred” meltdowns and explosive reactions. You’ll learn what’s happening in your child’s developing brain, why logic doesn’t work mid-tantrum, and practical co‑regulation strategies to help them move from survival mode back to safety, connection, and problem‑solving.Read the blog post:MotherooHQ.comFollow us:instagram.com/motherooHQinstagram.com/motheroopodcasttiktok.com/@motherooHQtwitter.com/motherooHQfacebook.com/motherooHQ
