How The Brain is Built and Why It Matters

How We Get Caught in The Discipline Trap

Believing we need to consequence children into new behaviors.

Why we are often stuck in damage control, responding to the problem

rather than preparing for the challenge.

Learning new skills takes place in quality relationships

How to teach skills while remaining attached •  Be a teacher not a blamer or shamer •  Move around the defensive brain •  Know what moment you are in •  Offer new words, thoughts & actions

Maximize the Thinker and

Minimize the Caveman

The types of communication that lead to resistance

•  Target practice •  Non-verbals •  Eye Rolling, exasperated

breaths •  Contempt, sarcasm,

belittling, shame  

How we can say, think and do things differently in order to parent and teach children with anger, anxiety or intensity.
