Coping

Life is full of hard moments — waiting, disappointment, frustration, overwhelm, and things that do not go the way we planned. Coping is the set of skills that helps your child move through those moments without falling apart.

In this category, you'll learn how to: use practical tools for teaching your child what to do with their body, their breath, and their words when something feels too big to handle. You will learn how to model coping strategies before the hard moment arrives, how to give your child language for asking for a break, and how to help them practice the skills they will need most when they are most flooded. A child who has a coping toolkit does not just survive hard moments — they begin to trust that they can.
