Whether if your kid is a kid that loves to read, helping them get books online, if obviously we're not going to libraries, but there's a lot of online platforms where you can get books.
If your kid really needs to connect with friends, one exercise I recommend is just to sit down as a family collectively and write down what are 10 things that allow you that security.
safety, you know, like for me, it's taking a walk or a bath, and being able to know what your kids are, because then you can offer it as a resource when they are struggling.
You could say, why don't you put that weighted blanket on, you know, and just lie down and put relaxing music if that's one way to calm them.
Identifying resources is a really powerful tool.
And I also think
that meditation is really tricky in the sense that guided meditation is really what I put forward.
And that's really using mindfulness types of practices where it's really kind of recentering and getting in that breath.
And now if you have a kid who's highly active, you kind of let them walk around and do a breathing exercise just walking.
But really three deep breaths allows you to recenter your nervous system
And I think also really, you know, one major thing is just having compassion and holding space for these influx of emotions and narratives and fears that may arise, you know, and really providing comfort and ease to it.
You know, also recognizing physically when we're experiencing physical pain.
that those physical pain is a signal.
So where can you introduce comfort and ease into your body and your daily life where it doesn't go into pain and inflammation?
One final thing is to just really go back into the space that, um,
we're dealing with like a whole new world normal, you know, and having a differently wired kid, you're already used to that and you're equipped and you have so many skills and resources and creative thinking that this is something that as a culture and a society and as a world, we will and are going to get through.
you know, through accurate science and all the work the community is doing.
And we will get through this.
It's a transient moment and it's challenging, but we will become stronger and better from this.
Yeah.
