Seems like a difficult question right? Wrong actually..

Children can always benefit from some extra support – don’t forget childhood is a time of immense change. They are physically growing and changing? We expect them to move through massive life changes – and it is not easy.

How nervous are you when you are going for an interview, starting a new job, having to meet new people, doing a talk? And you have years of life experience behind you.

For our kids – it’s often the first time they have to face a particular situation and these are ‘HUUUGGGEEE’ for them.

• New siblings
• Parents job changes – so childcare changes, access to parents may change
• Brain development
• Starting day care – meeting new people, being controlled and cared for by complete strangers
• Learning how to socially engage
• Wanting to fit in and be liked
• Starting school – don’t know anyone who would like to do that again….
• First fallout\arguments with their peers
• Realising that I am not good at certain things – not feeling good enough
• Exams
• Puberty
• First dates
• Learning to drive
• Finishing high school – and not knowing what’s coming next
• Etc etc etc

Looking at that list is enough to make any one of us anxious. It is so normal for our children to struggle with many or even all of these things.

And that’s where I come in. I sit in the space between where parents can help and before things are bad enough that a child psychologist is needed. 

I hold a safe place\support for kids when parents do not have capacity or knowledge to ‘fix-it’ for their kids.. And let’s face it – we always listened to our parents and knew that they were right about everything – Ha Ha….

Life and kinesiology is all about finding and working through the emotions that our children are feeling. About helping them to be more and more emotionally intelligent. To provide them with a space where they can be vulnerable and unload emotionally. To clear energy as required, to reset their nervous system and to empower them to manage and regulate themselves.
