Let's take some time in, together, on this Valentine's Day 💛
A struggling self-esteem will become your child's inner voice who will be affirming on repeat negative thoughts & self-concepts.
Our action plan is 3-fold.
1-Challenge and Create a positive environment to our child’s self-concepts. Managing the environment and their interpretation about the environment
In the Munich Model of Giftedness, the environment is assessed as a KEY factor to the child’s development- relationship with caretakers, sensory accommodations, social emotional bonds with friends, level of connection with parents. What we tolerate becomes their inner voice
How our own anxiety co-regulates emotional Des-regulations.
Epigenetic, experience influences how our genetic baggage manifests.
Difference between shame and guilt
Be very careful about story our child tells themselves, be a guardian of their mind.
2-Fostering Introspecting Time.
The gifted brain is very sensitive to environmental stimuli, it needs time in to recenter and self-regulate.
3-Encourage and Model internal validation.
