    I'm an adult but really needed this. I used to have anxiety meltdowns and my mother would show frustration and start yelling.I always wished she would've calmly said " hey, let's break this down and do a little bit at a time " or practice. Better now than never. ❤

      Exactly this. I was expected to know and be comfortable with everything right away. Plus was shamed and blamed for struggling and as a result I became afraid of the reaction instead of the thing I'm anxious about.

    I'm reminded of when we took our two-year old granddaughter to the horse park. Tiny girl with the giant horses. I KNEW she'd be terrified, but I made sure to step her up. We started with watching the show so she could see them. Then we walked around to see each of the horses from the show. She started in her grandfather's arms, then riding on my rollator seat. By the time we were halfway around the ring, she was grinning and thrilled to take hugs and kisses from the horses. When her grandfather took her to the draft horse barn (and I went to find air conditioning and cold water), she was dragging him and running up to the huge draft horses. Her mom had been so worried about her freaking out on us, but we took it slow and she's now another generation of horse crazy!

    This video was so helpful to me. I really appreciate you taking the time to make it for us. Before seeing your video today, I took my daughter to the Dr. and I prepped her ahead of time of what to expect and why they would be doing that. I could tell she was having anxiety before I told her these things. I am thankful for the ideas you shared as I can also use them to help my kids and myself when struggling with anxiety in the future. Thank you so much!

    Such an important thing to help younger generations learn! ❤ Kids now are able to access so much information all at once and it is so important to create a safe space where they feel able to express their thoughts and feelings about all of it.

    How do you do this with your child who is terrified of the dentist? She had a really bad experience when she went, now she has terrible anxiety and a bunch of cavities. So bad that they have to pull her tooth bc it’s now got a food pocket and gets infected.

    I am binge watching your videos as my kids are getting more and more anxious. Thank you for your sharing. My question is what if my kids are just scared, and cannot articulate what scares them (they are 10 and 11 years old)

    Hi Emma! My 6 years old daughter finds it really hard to make friends. She likes having friends rather envies her elder sister who is very social. She thinks everybody will look at her abd mock her if she initiates a friendship herself. Although she plays very well with her sister. But its difficult for her with new people.
    Can you help with this issue?

  • @sonjaforrester9255
    @sonjaforrester9255 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This is great thanks. But what about the kid that isn't afraid they just don't want to try anything out of their comfort zone?

      How is it going now?
      Anxiety can present itself in different ways, covert ways.
      My 10 year old shows no interest. When I don't give him a choice that's when his anxiety comes out.
      Kids need to learn how to recognize their emotions not just how to face them.

    How do I tell the difference from anxiety to ADHD in my 8 yo son? He struggles to do his school work and I don't know if its anxiety or ADHD. He also struggles with getting things done at home. Will using your coaching techniques help kids with ADHD or just anxiety ?

    Hi! I was wondering if you have any extra tips on how to ease the anxiety when you have to take your kid into urgent care with a wound or whatnot. We just dealt with this last week when my 9yr old daughter cut her finger badly cleaning a blender blade. She had to get 5 stitches in her finger and it was traumatic for her since she's never had to do anything like that before. The whole time I was saying things like "Don't be scared... be brave... this will all be over soon... yada yada yada. Everything I was saying didn't seem to really help and left me feeling unhelpful and like I was trying to make her not feel her feelings. Now we are going tomorrow to get the stiches out and she's pretty nervous about it and I don't really know the right things to say to her. I do like your tips about going over the process of it. I thought maybe showing her a video of a kid getting their stitches out so she can see how easy it is and maybe roll playing the scenario at home with maybe a stuffed animal. But I still feel like I don't know the right things to say when we are in a scary situation like this. Any advice? Thanks!

    My soul is tortured and tormented and raped.
    He raped me.
    I am in agony.
    Anguished.
    Haunted.
    Panicked.
    In despair.
    I die inside.
    The pain is unbearable.
    I drowned in terror and darkness.
    Nightmares all night.
    Panic attacks all day.
    When and how will I ever heal?
    This happened to me in February,
    and now we're in June...
    I need a miracle.
    A million little miracles...
    His name is Bryan.
    He raped my soul.
    Viciously maliciously
    brutally violently.
    I thought he was my best friend.
    He betrayed and abandoned me
    and left me alone to die.
    Replaced me.
    Discarded me.
    Like garbage.
    Gave me sever PTSD.
    So...
    I release all chords, hooks, ties, and attachments
    to him specifically, and also generally:
    to any person, place, or thing,
    on any time continuum,
    that is no longer for my highest and best good, and healing...
    I release all of these things now, and forevermore,
    and I watch them dissolve into the nothingness, from which they came...
    Thank you, thank you, thank you
    - IT IS DONE! 🙏
    And here are 13 gentle and urgent reminders:
    1. You're ALWAYS exactly where you are supposed to be
    2. Self-esteem is measured by you (nobody else gets to decide your worth)
    3. Get rid of fear: FOREVER!!!
    4. When things are tough, change the way you see things...
    5. Don't dwell on/in the past (come back to this present moment!)
    6. It's only temporary (all of it!)
    7. You have what it takes
    8. You don't need to change
    9. Release your need for control
    10. Accept. Allow. Breathe. Deep.
    11. Remember where you came from
    12. Remember that you are not alone (not ever!)
    13. Remember who you are
