How many times have you heard an adult say to an upset child, “Calm down,” “Just relax,” or “Pull yourself together. It’s not so bad”? Children are not born knowing how to calm themselves when they get emotional. Self-regulating our emotions is a skill to be learned. In part 1, Lorna will define learning styles and help make the connection between the way that we learn with the way that we self-calm. In part 2, she will share how to create a place for each family member when they need get calm, what activities to put in, when a family member should go there, and how to get them there.
