Paying attention to our nervous system can help us return to a sense of safety, no matter what our children say or do. Take action from a place of calm and compassion, not fear and defensiveness.

Tips from Leah Davidson:
Step 1 - Am I safe? I am safe.
Step 2 - Do I feel safe? Maybe not.
Step 3 - Take a deep breath and focus on your body. Let go of any tension that you notice. Use rag doll pose or havening techniques. 

Consider that everyone's nervous system is different and people may be having challenging physiological reactions to experiences that don't bother us. We can hold space for that.
