Seasons greetings to all!
Children who grow up into too much of everything... Visually, auditorily, materially may end up with attention issues, not learning to be able to focus on one thing at a time and their little bodies are unable to process this excess, leading to behaviour issues.
Children need to grow up in calm and warm environments that are conducive for growing up into well balanced adults.
What we see may be just a seed but when you look at a child as the tree that they 'can' grow up into, that will help us to nourish them with just the right amount of input... Not too much, not too less...
Happy !!

Can you think straight when you're hungry, tired or sleepy? No right? Continuing the conversation on one of the most important topics related to early childhood development. The lower senses. Unless we're comfortable in our own bodies, we can't be comfortable in the world.
Only when we're safe, well cared for, nurtured in the right way, can we be available for higher order functions as a human being, that is communication, listening, thinking and relating to other human beings with empathy.

Continuing the conversation with Dr Reena Singh Reena Singh |
Occupational therapist , in this clip we're talking about what the society conditions us to believe that we want for our children versus what children actually need to grow into healthy adults.
Rudolf Steiner has given clear indications a hundred years ago that more and more people - professionals, researchers and parents are waking up to today.

This reel is an excerpt from Dr Reena Singh's interview of me, a few years back. This interview (1:45:48 minutes long) has been a precious resource for many parents who told me that they took a plunge into the world of anthroposophy and Waldorf education after watching it. So eternally grateful to Dr Reena Singh at Reena Singh |
Occupational therapist for guiding so many parents through her work.
You can watch the whole interview and many more on her channel Reena Singh |

Democratic (or authoritative - wonder why it's called that though) is the kind of parenting that is respectful, warm, loving and balanced and gives children the freedom of speech but at the same time giving the children boundaries that keep them safe and secure.
What kind of parents did you have? And what do you believe is your style? And why?
Do share in the comments.
Happy Parenting and a happy independence day!

The less we think, the more relaxed our muscles are. Let's take a thought break each day and calm down our nervous system. Let's use our limbs more and reduce screen time. At least for some time everyday.
Healthy, well regulated children need healthy, well regulated parents.
At Niraamayaa, our focus is as much on the caregivers as it is on children.
Take care!

Dear parents, the times have changed. Let's normalize mental health conversations. Let's normalize seeking help even if it feels trivial to you. For your child it may not be trivial. I know so many teenagers who can't go for therapy because their parents don't believe in it. They feel that the children are overreacting... Until it's too late...
