Marneta Viegas – Helping Kids Relax Into Big Emotions
Aired Monday, March 14, 2022 at 11:00 AM PST / 2:00 PM EST / 7:00 PM GMT / 8:00 PM CET
When our kids come to the earth, their VOICES are BIG. ROAR. Expressing feelings is as natural as breathing. Yet, kids start feeling less comfortable with their emotions at some point. Fear, anger, jealousy, worry, doubt can cause suffering. And even Juicy JOY leaking out at the “wrong” time can cause people to silence kids. Squeals of delight in a restaurant are frowned upon. No more stomping when courage is needed. No more tears when overwhelm swallows us. We are trained to sit still and behave if we want to do well. And slowly, we watch as our kid’s vibrant expression shrinks. Their ROAR gets stuck. Confidence dwindles.
Join leading voice expert Kara Johnstad and Marteta Viegas, founder of Relax Kids Ltd., in a heartfelt conversation on how we can support our children in taking control of their physical and emotional well-being. What tools do they have to encourage self-regulation and self-care? How do we help them work with the monsters of anxiety and worry, deal with the dragons of anger and stress and make friends with their gremlins of grief and sadness? How can we guide them to understand how feelings affect the brain. The more we open about emotions, the more children will learn they are not to be rejected but something to be nurtured and allowed. May our kids tap into their Creative Imaginative Superpowers and Thrive.
