It's confusing for everyone, especially kids, when our brains get overloaded with emotions like fear, grief, or anger. Giving kids the language, metaphors, and tools to understand what's going on in their brains is crucial. The Fabulous Fight or Flight Stress System series offer innovative rhyming resources and playful psychoeducational texts to help children and caregivers understand how their brain, body, and nervous system function.

Seven Sensational Senses for Little Sprockets provides a rich, developmentally appropriate, and engaging discussion to help children understand their sensory system from an inclusive and diverse framework. This book provides a multi-faceted exploration of the senses so that all children may access this information, and includes some playful, adaptive strategies that might help children regulate, feel safe, and connect with others through their sensations.

The Fabulous Fight or Flight Stress System ~ for Little Sprockets provides an engaging discussion of our stress response system through using developmentally appropriate animal metaphors. This book provides child-friendly embodied play and trauma-sensitive yoga expressive movements to help children up- and down-regulate, while connecting with others.

Knowledge is power. When kids understand how their brain, body, and nervous system function, they can begin to make choices to help them stay connected, calm, and safe. For caregivers, this knowledge can help us respond effectively and appropriately when our kids need our assistance. I hope you find these books as enjoyable to read as I did to write!

Get with the TIMEs...Trauma-informed Movement Exploration!

Join us on Saturday 12/17 at noon EST as we explore the practice of trauma-sensitive yoga! Yoga helps to calm the central nervous system, thus decreasing the physiological and biochemical byproducts of stress, encouraging children to slow down, pay attention to the present, and to notice how their body is feeling.

Embodied play, more specifically games & activities that integrate trauma-sensitive yoga, allow children to develop a rich variety of resources for regulation & connection with others...improving their capacity for wellness!

CONTINUING GRATITUDE IN DECEMBER...

I am offering some of my work this month in gratitude for our connections within this safe space...here is one of my newest creations! I have been using this technique for almost 20 years!

#1 COWS (the behaviors or situations that caused distress) are acknowledged in a safe, brief manner

#2 Help the family & the child identify feelings & thoughts (reasoning) that led to the child's actions...these tend to become triggers/themes that underlie the COWS (symptoms of the child's needs)

#3 Encourage family to work towards mending (repairing) and moving forward towards health, safety, and connection...focusing on the FARM

#4 Create strategies to help child feel safe & connected through co-regulation when a COW pops up

#5 Teach child new responses using Somatic Interweaves . . . . . ways they can change their body to change their emotions & behaviors to keep their FARM balanced, safe, & secure

I will be going live at www.moonphoenixrising.org on Thursday 12/22 at 7:00PM EST to discuss & answer questions! It is a free to register for this community, with any donations going to support foundations for adaptive athletes, veterans, and their support athletes/guides.

Just finished uploading to Amazon!
Many people asked for a version of my two books that is for little ones...more of a story than a resource to be used with caregivers.
So...I combined the two (neuroscience & embodied play) into a short, rhythmic, kids book about our brain, body, and regulation using animal metaphors!
