In this Master Class you'll discover:
• How attachment and relational experiences affect neuroplasticity in the child's developing brain
• How to fortify emotional resilience so children can ride the waves of life's more challenging experiences
• How to create quality time with our family in an age of digital distractions
• How we can show up more fully for our children, even if we did not have secure attachment with our own caregivers
• Why aiming for "perfect parenting" is not only unrealistic, but harmful
• Simple strategies, based on the latest brain and attachment research, for honoring the Four S’s of Attachment:
- Safe: Giving a child a sense of safe harbor so she will be able to take the needed risks for growth and change
- Seen: Truly seeing a child to attune to what’s happening in his mind beneath his behavior
- Soothed: Teaching your child how to cope when life gets hard and showing him that he’ll never have to suffer alone
- Secure: Reliably showing up for your child, so she will trust and thrive in a feeling of secure attachment
