Case Study: How to Stop Fixing Your Child's Feelings

Sep 24, 2024

What if we didn't need to fix our children's feelings? Imagine if the key to a peaceful household lies not in solving every problem but in simply being present. Today, we explore the transformative power of witnessing our children's emotions.


In today's case study, I chat with Shweta, a mother to two children, about the struggle of managing her nine-year-old daughter’s anxiety. Shweta shares the weight of feeling responsible for her child's emotional well-being and the pressure she places on herself to "fix" everything. We unpack the importance of validating our children's feelings without rushing to solutions and how this practice can lead to deeper connections and fewer anxiety-driven outbursts. 


In This Episode:

  • Why the need to fix our children’s feelings is a myth
  • The importance of witnessing and validating emotions
  • Letting go of guilt and control
  • Embracing tantrums for emotional release
  • Building deeper connections through empathy
