The Baffling Behavior Show {Parenting after Trauma}
Ever wonder how to apply the concepts of felt-safety and attunement to one of the trickiest parenting experiences ever? Food and feeding kids with extreme picky eating, food preoccupation, or other feeding-related challenges that feel very stressful in your family?
This is exactly why I invited today's guest to the podcast!
Dr. Katja Rowell is a family physician in Washington State, the author of Conquer Picky Eating for Teens and Adults, Helping Your Child with Extreme Picky Eating, and Love Me, Feed Me. Dr. Rowell is also the co-founder of Responsive Feeding Pros, an international digital learning platform for professionals working with feeding and eating challenges within a responsive framework.
Responsive Feeding is a feeding model that has been in the academic literature since 2011 and is recommended by American Academy of Pediatrics.
Dr. Rowell described Responsive Feeding as a model that ultimately helps kids tune into their hunger and fullness cues, while also recognizing and honoring that food is comforting and regulating.
Responsive Feeding is a model that is both high structure and high nurture, which ultimately allows for a lot of flexibility. Responsive Feeding prioritizes felt safety; it is never intended to be rigid. Responsive feeding is about attunement and helping caregivers respond to their child’s cues.
All of this sounds very familiar right? Attunement, felt-safety, high-structure, high-nurture.
I knew Dr. Rowell would be just the right guest to talk to my audience!
