Ep 22 - Trying to Keep Our Sanity with Our Overstimulated Kids After School

In this episode of The Healing Mothers' Club, Danik Bernier preps us to manage the overstimulation our kids come back from school with. It's almost that time of year where they come back home and it looks like yelling, trash everywhere, and probably you in the bathroom crying trying to manage our overwhelm. Danik encourages us to focus on co-regulation right away. When our kids get home, instead of demands and asking them questions, we want to be ahead of the game (even if they seem calm). They need time to acclimate to their new rhythm of school, as do you! Tune in for more insights and strategies to help you self-regulate and manage expectations when it comes to the new season upcoming for all moms and their children.

About the Podcast

Healing Mothers' Club
Parenting After Childhood Trauma | Inner Child Healing | Nervous System Regulation
This is the space where we learn to parent our kids AND ourselves after childhood trauma so we can stop being held back by the stories our nervous systems have stored. It’s time to live a full, authentic live – free of toxic patterns holding us back. In this podcast, we learn how to mother others and how to mother ourselves. We’re all healing moms – whether you’re a mom to humans wanting to break the cycle of trauma in the family you’ve created, or a human in need of self-mothering to regulate your nervous system so you can stop the self-sabotage cycle – we’re all part of the same club. I invite you to join me, Danik Bernier, host of this podcast, healing mom, EMDR Certified therapist and Nervous System Coach on this journey towards trauma liberation and nervous system regulation. You can also find me on Instagram, @danikhelpsmoms. Check out the show notes for the link for a FREE coaching consultation.
