Ep. 155: Match the Energy, NOT the Dysregulation

This latest episode unpacks the advanced parenting strategy of 'Match the Energy, but not the Dysregulation', a technique rooted in insights from polyvagal theory and interpersonal neurobiology. It’s a nuanced approach that requires resilience and patience, but when applied consistently, it can offer a remarkably accurate emotional mirror for your children and pave the way for improved connection.

In this episode you’ll learn:

• The advanced parenting strategy of ‘Matching The Energy, But Not The Dysregulation’
• To better identify how far down the Watchdog or Possum pathway your child is
• Advanced techniques and strategies need practice, you won't be an expert at them immediately
