Once he was calm and back to a fully functioning brain, I you know, I said to him finally, I said, you know

Sometimes it feels like

And I start with my own.

experience, right?

So sometimes it when I feel mad, you know how sometimes I get mad and I get really mad and I'm kinda mean.

And I say mean things and later on I I come and I make it right with you and

I said sometimes for me what it feels like is an um like a free train.

It's like I get picked up by a train.

And I'm not the driver and it the train is just wild and crazy and it just drives me down the tracks and

And that is our emotional freight train and it's you know, we we aren't in control, it picks us up.

We're in total automatic pilot.

we'd say and do things that later on we feel really bad about.

So it started off as a tool that my son and I can use, like, oh, do you feel like the train's coming right now?

You know, like that was the languaging that we used to kind of help him connect with

His experience, you know, because we don't go from zero to sixty.

I mean it can feel like it's, you know, snap and we're there, but really there is a build up and the more we can become aware of, like I say in the book, the train pulling into the station.

And what the indicators are for us, whether it's a tense body.

or certain um thought patterns or emotions, when we can start to get more familiar with the train pulling into the station.

Then we have a better

opportunity to see the choice point of am I gonna get on, am I gonna go barreling down the tracks and possibly, you know, hurt my relationship with my child, or am I going to take care of myself in this moment so that I can be what I need to be?
