Does your child seem like they’re always “on”?
Alwawebeinittogetherroom… trying to get it right... even when nothing is required of them?
That’s not bad behavior. It’s their nervous system doing its best to stay safe.
Here’s the truth: Kids don’t relax because we tell them to. They relax when they feel safe enough to.
🧠✨
That safety starts with us—when we show up without demands, without judgment, and just be with them. Quiet. Present. Attuned.
Not fixing. Not prompting.
Just being the warm sunbeam they can soften into.
Presence over performance. Every time. 💛
