whether it's through breath work or whether it's through maybe a little bit of inner child work or it's just having love, compassion, and understanding for themselves as they're going through this process, what ends up happening is their systems regulate And the children who are tuned into every single vibration that's going on with that parent notices that regulation and guess what happens?

They start regulating in their bodies as well. Behavior is the highest form of communication, right? We know that. We know that even as verbal speakers, we can say something, but that doesn't mean anything if our behaviors are completely opposite of what we say. So I tell parents, look at the behavior of your child.

So I tell parents, look at the behavior of your child.
If your child is frustrated, overwhelmed, crying, banging their head up against the wall, you know, what does that behavior look like? The moment you see the behavior, Just gently, compassionately asking ourselves that question. It's like, well, where might I be that frustrated? And I'm not placing any blame on parents whatsoever.

I'm just saying that if we can use the children's behaviors as information, as to things that we can explore within ourselves, you'll see almost an instantaneous transformation in that behavior. The other thing the kids have always said is, we don't really care how our parents feel. We care that they know how they feel.

Because if they know how they feel, then we don't feel like we have to show it to them. We don't feel like we have to help them regulate. And to me, this is all about creating environments where these kids can regulate as, you know, as easily as is possible.

So the very first child, Riley, that I met in 99, as part of that year-long process to help him integrate, he would ask me to bring in tuning forks. And the reason he asked is he was saying, Like my soul has one vibration and my human experience has another vibration. And the challenge is that one's much higher than the other. And that's what's causing dysregulation in my body.

And that's what's causing dysregulation in my body.
That's what's making it difficult for me not to flow communication or regulate my body so he suggested to me that i bring in these tuning forks and basically all i was doing was playing playing a game with him is like hitting it and he would tell me yes that's the one yes that's the one and then i would say okay one for the soul one for the body

And so we would just keep going until we found the two that were accurate. And then he would have me hit those at the same time. So now we're reverberating those two fields together. So in that case, it was really supportive for him. He actually then asked me to do that with my mouth to make the sound. And I was like, oh, now I can do it. But man, at the time, I was freaked out.

But yes, so if we think about there's one vibration that is higher than the other, and any way in which we can merge those vibrations... That's great. So tuning forks is a great way to do that. But again, in that scenario, it's going to require that you have a child who can give you information back about which tone feels right.

I always say, you know, yes, bring the tuning forks in, but ask the kids, is this something you want to play with? What I know after thousands of kids, Kai, is that they know what they need. We just have to find a way to ask what they need.
