Using Neuroscience to Stop Managing Behavior and Start Raising Joyful Kids with Mona Delahooke, PhD

Dr. Mona Delahooke promotes a nervous system-based approach to parenting and teaching in her book "Brain Body Parenting". The focus is on understanding and supporting the child's nervous system, rather than just addressing behaviors. The book covers topics like sleep, potty training, and tantrums. The color system can assess a child's state of regulation, and sensory sensitivities and stress reactions should be addressed compassionately. Developing self-awareness and practicing self-regulation techniques is crucial for effective parenting, reducing stress and improving well-being for both parents and children.
