Reducing Stress for parents through Simplicity and Connection

  • Women Hold the Key @ the Synergy Center for Women 9822 Southwest Gorsuch Road Vashon, WA, 98070 United States (map)

Join facilitators Betty Peralta and Amelia Bolyard for this informative, connective and supportive gathering for moms & female caretakers of children!

All children are born indigenous and are conditioned into our hectic modern society. Understanding their nervous system needs can reduce stress for everyone.

In this 2-hour discussion, we will introduce the idea of reducing family stress by increasing connection using the NeuroRelational Framework. We'll talk about ways to slow down and simplify to lay a foundation for better connection; then, we'll talk about slowing down our interactions to incorporate the following elements:

Co-regulating by using intense emotions to get to acceptance and joy

Opening your learning system to allow pushback 

Navigating your own neurobiological needs

Noticing and responding to children’s neurodevelopmental needs

Empowering yourself and your children to hold and respect each other's boundaries

Cultivating cooperation instead of compliance

Teaching values and meeting needs rather than reacting to behaviors
