Want to lose your sh*t less? Try: The Statue 1️⃣Sit your fine ass down, close your eyes and breathe 2️⃣Let your child watch you. 3️⃣Practice deep breathing with your child when they are relatively calm The statue regulates your child’s nervous system 🧠🫀 by activating mirror neurons which helps with impulse control and emotion regulation. Mirror neurons 🪞 are specialized brain cells that register the emotional state of another person without performing the action of the other person. The statue also regulates YOUR nervous system by lowering the stress hormone cortisol in your blood, and lowering activity in your Amygdala in your brain 🧠 both of which help you be less agitated and more happy to connect with your child. 👩‍👦 I hear you, the statue is easier said than done ✔️ But it’s free, it takes less than 5 minutes and with consistency and repetition... You will: ✅ Feel less burned out ✅ Stay calm when your child is not ✅ Like your child more Your child will: ✅ Develop self regulation ✅ Learn impulse control ✅ feel more connected to you It’s a WIN-WIN for everyone involved 🏆 What do you think?
