"Emotional regulation is the ability to regulate our own emotions and choose actions that are appropriate in that situation.”
“We can teach those skills to our children today so that they can have a better life.”
“In order to teach self-regulation or regulation skills to our children, first and foremost, we need to learn those same skills ourselves.”
“There is no misbehavior. There is only behavior.”
“There's nothing wrong with your child. There's nothing wrong with you. This is just simple biology.”
“Our compassion level has to match the intensity of the emotion that child is feeling.”
What you’ll hear in this episode:
What does Joyful Courage mean to you?
When I hear these two words together, I sort of have this feeling of a child-like wonderous, courageous, right, children have this courage, they're present and they know. They're not diluted with all the societal stuff. So this pure courage that is also joyful, this child-like courage. That's how I have a sense about those two words together.
