Chapter Three

You are doing a great job connecting in comments, so please continue! Please comment on whatever speaks to you and reply to others' posts - great work!  I love hearing the "practice" piece, so hopefully some of you will reflect on how you are planting seeds and modeling with their kids.  If possible, please share at least one comment and reply to one other person's comment, to keep the discussion going.  

Also, a couple of parents have suggested meeting again face-to-face about halfway through the book.  What do you think?

Chapter 3 key concepts:
  • Finding balance
  • Catastrophic thinking
  • Predictability
  • Perfectionism
  • Rigidity
  • How avoidance strengthens our worry/ how parents strengthen avoidance
  • Importance of teaching flexibility
Practice:
  •  Plant the seeds of flexibility
  • Model the process of flexibility


Goal: Be more like a cat:)
