Ep. 148: "Fix" Behaviors by Growing the Owl Brain

About this episode

Wondering how to tackle your child's baffling behaviors effectively? Join me as I share insights from my comprehensive framework, as well as practical tools and an understanding of your own nervous system. We'll break down how three elements interweave to address complex behaviors and also discuss the subtitle behind my book, "Brain-body-sensory Strategies That Really Work."

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • Why the approach in Raising Kids with Big, Baffling Behaviors is an approach that ‘really works’
  • Why Growing the Owl Brain is a more important place to focus than Responding to Watchdog and Possum Brain behavior
  • The three things to address to Grow the Owl Brain
