This reel explores how emotional states impact behavior, especially in children when adults are upset. We discuss crucial brain science principles, highlighting the brain's survival mechanisms and the critical need for a sense of safety for emotional regulation. Understanding these dynamics offers practical parenting tips and effective behavior management strategies, fostering greater emotional intelligence in both children and adults.Drawing on Conscious Discipline research, Dr. Courtney Bishop breaks down the three brain states: survival, emotional, and executive, and why a child's brain cannot rise higher than the adult's.
