What is Co-Regulation?
This is the process of "sharing our calm." We model strategies that help us to self-regulate in order to help our children do the same. This processing begins in infancy and continues for many, many years! Even as adults, we have those we turn to when we feel our emotions are too big for us to process ourselves. We need to stay calm so they can stay calm, too.
