Key strategies for teaching emotion regulation
Wednesday, 12 June, 2024
Following on from our delve into what emotion regulation really is (see our previous episode), Patricia and Sammy discuss some key strategies to use when supporting children, as a parent, teacher or anyone who works closely with children. We explore interoception further and discover ways we can support our children in strengthening this sense (check out Kelly Mahler's free resources here). This is vital understanding as it links so closely to so many of our neurodivergent people's struggles! We then discuss other strategies and frameworks we can use to support our children's understanding of their emotions (read: our understanding of their behaviours), such as HALT and Phoenix Cups (for more information and to find out your needs profile, check out the Phoenix Cups website here). All underpinned by psychological safety, which we discuss also. In what we planned to be a bite-sized episode, we actually cover a lot of ground and hope you can take some great ideas with you into your parenting and life! . Join Patricia Falcetta (Social Living Solutions) and Sammy Anne (Map the Maze) as they discuss Nurturing Neurodiversity; all the ways we can create a truly inclusive society. Our passion lies in supporting whole families to navigate the challenges and revel in the joys of their neurodivergent children. A big part of this support entails advocating for changes within our systems and society, to ensure our children grow up knowing and loving who they are. No matter our ability, race, gender, sexuality, beliefs – we all deserve to be loved and appreciated. We aim to educate, connect and inspire. We do this by sharing with you our stories, experiences and relevant research, along with neurodivergent voices through interviews and quotes with permission. We open dialogue on what we can all do to create positive social change. With backgrounds in the education and allied health industries, as well as experience working directly with families, we work within AND continually challenge the existing systems we all operate under. We wholeheartedly believe that if we can all open our minds and our hearts, share the message of love and equity for all, that we will be part of creating a truly inclusive world for generations to come. We hope you will join us on our journey. Want to share your story? Have a guest you’d love us to interview? Questions you’d like us to answer?
