Having a Meerkat reaction to most things in daily life is exhausting
Frequently being stuck in high ‘Meerkat alert’ mode
Is disruptive, lonely and a huge burden on the nervous system
Here’s a simple insight and ways to soothe a scared Meerkat https://t.co/4urtfxjBPS #anxiety
Have sent out ALL my Coaching Zoom links for this week before the week kicks off!!
Feels very satisfying indeed #needtogetalife #coaching #organized🤣🤣
Our children adore us
Our children are deeply attuned to our emotions
Our children are totally dependent on our emotional connection
They notice
They feel
They subconsciously take on much more than we realise
Which is why working on ourselves is VITAL

Our frustration with children is UNDERSTANDABLE but unhelpful
When they seem to resist or aren’t doing what we believe they should be
WE need to give ourselves a moment to reset as our nervous system is in frustrated - push harder
OR Overwhelmed - shut down mode #coach
@JoFreeRangePlay I’d be curious as the adult. About why they are so often stuck in overwhelm fight mode? It’s not a cognitive response but a survival one wired into them
Normalising
Excusing
Rationalising
Minimising
Harmful things we do to children.
Doesn’t reduce the fear and harm they cause.
Working on ourselves to STOP shouting at them and throwing things...
Does avoid fear and harm.
