Wishing the Mom Sensory Magic community a beautiful Mother’s Day. 💐
That moment when you finally have a tea at the end of the day… ☕💐
Motherhood is a thousand tiny jobs, nervous system resets, and deep breaths in between.
I hope you feel loved and cherished, not only today but always. 💗

Have I shared that Komuso has a breathing tool for kids?!
This silicone version is perfect if they’re still learning to take deep breaths, because they can chew on it too!
I always found it a hard skill to teach kids to breathe to regulate their nervous system when they’re in the moment of fight-flight. I would venture to say, it doesn’t work. Start with sensory, then move into breathing. That’s why I love this idea!

Komuso · Micro-Calming™ Breathwork they make breathing jewelry for grown-ups too, which is more my style. 💁🏻♀️

I see this often. Child refuses to sit still, won’t transition without a meltdown, or ignores direction, and it seems like ‘bad behavior.’
Sometimes the child isn’t being defiant. They’re having a fight-flight response. Why?
Sensory systems that are overwhelmed don’t respond calmly, they react. Our job isn’t to control that reaction but to dig deeper to understand where it’s coming from.
The best thing to do is to connect. Connection is the first step to digging deeper.
