<\/a>In every person\u2019s life, there is a certain amount of drama and emotional upset. Our children of course are no exception and each child will attract varying degrees of drama. Of my three children, one was extremely mellow, one attracted a little more drama and one loved drama. It was often a dance on how to act with whom and it required practice.<\/p>\nThe dramas our children create require a high level of emotional energy. When they\u2019re upset, it can take many forms and may be from the drama they created or from an upsetting life event. Whatever the origin, we want our children to feel supported.<\/p>\n
As adults, we often must soothe ourselves when something dramatic happens that has caused us to be upset. Not the case with our kids. We are there to soothe them, which may involve hearing about their latest friendship mishap, comfort them when a pet has died and perhaps solve a personal crisis. The examples will differ but our reaction and support will only be of value to our child when it originates from one place. This is our own alignment<\/em><\/strong>, our connectedness to Source, our place of feeling good, which is a high vibrational frequency. The greatest impact we have on our children doesn\u2019t come from what we say, but from how we are feeling, which is the energetic.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>How can we feel good when our child is in crisis<\/em>? It isn\u2019t easy, it takes practice, it\u2019s absolutely possible, and it\u2019s essential<\/em>. It isn\u2019t easy because we allow ourselves to become part of the upset either because we can\u2019t help it, or we think our child will feel more supported. It does take practice because it may be our habit to lower our own vibration to match whatever situation we\u2019re in. It is essential because we are only of value to those we love when we are in a higher vibrational frequency than they are.<\/p>\nHere are a few tips to help you when your child is in drama and upset.<\/p>\n
1)\u00a0\u00a0 Take a deep breath and intend your calm.<\/p>\n
2)\u00a0\u00a0 Acknowledge and express you\u2019re sorry your child is feeling bad.<\/p>\n
3)\u00a0\u00a0 Be fully present to what your child is expressing but maintain the focus on how you want them to feel, which is good. Maintain the vision of them being happy.<\/p>\n
4)\u00a0\u00a0 Offer any guidance or advice you are inspired to offer, and make a deliberate choice to maintain your alignment.<\/p>\n
5)\u00a0\u00a0 Remember that your goal is for your child to feel supported.<\/p>\n
6)\u00a0\u00a0 Help your child find a focus <\/em>that feels better, a distraction, and a better feeling thought.<\/p>\nMost of us have heard the saying \u201ctwo wrongs don\u2019t make a right.\u201d Well, two low vibrations do not create a high vibration. In order to inspire<\/em> our kids to a better feeling place, we must maintain our alignment when they are in crisis.<\/p>\nPlease feel free to comment.<\/p>\n
