PAUSE… Like a swarm of bees, The chaos is loud and feels tumultuous. Little pieces of energy darting in every direction. The thoughts, The emotions, The splitting of your energy trying to dance with it all. PAUSE… But step back a bit, dear one, And know that you are not the chaos. You can step away from the swarm, And allow it to continue its movements without you. You can choose to stop dancing erratically, And instead, Surrender to the calm. The calm will first saturate your body, Then your mind, And finally, your soul, So you're drenched in its blue waters. And because you allow it to do so, It will then emit its calming waves out from you, Calming the chaos from which you came. PAUSE… The bees will depart, The space will clear, The noise will dissolve.  And then, All that exists is the calm within you, And the calm around you, Wrapping you up in its blankets and carrying you off into the night. LONG PAUSE… So let yourself inhale a bit deeper, And exhale a little longer, Feeling your body slow down, Feeling your mind slow down, And letting your soul relax. PAUSE… Feel the blankets of calm covering you, As you release the tension from your face, Lower your shoulders, Open your chest, Soften your belly. PAUSE... Feel the calm cascading down your spine, From your neck, All the way down your back, Melting you deeper into your bed.  PAUSE… Feel your hips release, Your thighs relax, Your right leg grow heavy, And your left leg melt.  PAUSE… Let your toes release any energy left in your body, As your feet soften. LONG PAUSE… Sleep now, As your body is wrapped in the blankets of calm. As your mind swims in the sea of silence, And your soul is one with deep peace. Sweet Dreams, Beautiful.

Do you feel like you're constantly in survival mode?  Do you wish you could calm the chaos and finally live more intentionally?

She is founder of thewellteam.com and a certified Holistic Life Coach and an essential oils educator. Kari is passionate about empowering women with the tools they need to reclaim their life through self care, health and finding their identity while embracing the idea of a natural and non-toxic lifestyle in their products and mindset.  Kari and her husband, Bobby, live in Naples, Florida with their combined five children.

Episode 43: In this episode of the "Calm the Chaos Parenting Podcast," we tackle a concern that's on the minds of many parents today: screen addiction. With the digital world becoming an integral part of our lives, it's becoming increasingly challenging to discern the line between healthy screen use and addiction, especially for our neurodivergent children. This episode delves into the heart of this issue, offering insights and strategies from a neuro-affirming perspective that respects neurodiversity and individual needs.Many families are witnessing their children retreat into the digital realm, leading to significant changes in behavior, interests, and social interactions. This shift often leaves parents feeling helpless, worried about their child's future, and desperate for effective solutions.The fear that your child might be addicted to screens can create a toxic cycle of conflict, misunderstanding, and isolation within the family. Traditional advice on limiting screen time may not resonate with every child's needs, especially those who are neurodivergent, leaving parents feeling even more lost and frustrated.This episode introduces a compassionate, understanding approach to navigating screen use. By embracing a neuro-affirming perspective, we explore practical strategies that prioritize connection, understanding, and empowerment. You'll hear from Danielle, a mother who transformed her family's dynamic and helped her child find balance in the digital world without resorting to conflict or harsh restrictions.Key Highlights:[00:00:00] The Digital Dilemma: Danielle shares her family's struggle with her eldest's deep dive into the digital world, leading to a disconnect from real-life interactions and interests.[00:01:00] Battling Screen Time Worries: Explore the pervasive fear among parents that their child might be addicted to screens, creating a cycle of conflict and concern within families.[00:02:00] Shifting Perspectives on Screen Use: Approach screen time challenges from a neuro-affirming perspective, emphasizing understanding and connection over conflict.[00:03:00] Rebuilding Family Connections: Danielle discusses her journey towards re-establishing a positive relationship with her son, moving away from criticism and conflict towards understanding and support.[00:06:00] Understanding Underlying Needs: The importance of recognizing the root causes behind excessive screen time, such as sensory needs, anxiety management, and seeking connection.[00:08:45] Empowering Strategies for Balance: Danielle shares practical strategies for empowering her son to find balance in the digital world, highlighting the importance of flexibility and collaboration.[00:12:30] Success Beyond Screen Limits: The transformation in Danielle's family dynamic is showcased, illustrating how empathy, understanding, and empowerment can lead to positive outcomes beyond strict screen time limits.[00:17:18] A Mother's Reflection: Danielle reflects on the journey and the lessons learned, emphasizing the power of a neuro-affirming approach to navigating screen addiction concerns.This episode offers a refreshing perspective on screen time and addiction, providing families with practical strategies and hope for fostering a healthy relationship with digital technology.

On today's episode, we're joined by the incredible Dayna Abraham. Dayna Abraham has become a trusted and proven leader in the parenting community. An award-winning, national board-certified educator who has spent over ten years in the classroom, she is the founder of the popular parenting site Lemon Lime Adventures.She is also the CEO of Calm the Chaos, a seven-figure company that offers support to thousands of parents worldwide. Today we discuss Dayna's recent book, Calm The Chaos and we talk about parenting a challenging kid and Dayna shares the importance of how we can shift our perspective of how we view our kids and their challenging behaviors AND she shares some great nuggets from her book that will help to ground us in the heat of the challenging moments while finding calm in the chaos.  Here are some key talking points from the interview:As an educator, she noticed that kids with behavioral issues often had more going on beneath the surface, and she wanted to find ways to support them.Dana shares her personal journey of dealing with her eldest son's challenging behavior, including being kicked out of preschool and frequent suspensions.Dana discusses the shift in mindset needed when dealing with challenging behaviors in children. Instead of seeing the behavior as attacks or violence, she emphasizes the importance of understanding that the child is struggling and needs support.Dana introduces four key ingredients for addressing challenges: connection, understanding, empowerment, and the parent being grounded. These ingredients provide a framework that can be adapted to each unique family and child, acknowledging that there is no one-size-fits-all solution.Anchors are tools or phrases that ground parents in the heat of challenging moments. Examples include using a memory anchor, such as picturing the child as a baby, or simple phrases like "there is no bear" to signal safety to the brain.Dana shares a powerful example of a conversation with her son highlighting the importance of empowering discussions rather than enforcing strict boundaries.Where to find Dayna:Calm the Chaos: A Fail-Proof Road Map for Parenting Even the Most Challenging KidsSupport the showCheck out our Moms of Tweens and Teens website HERESign up for our Moms of Tweens and Teens newsletter HERE Find more encouragement, wisdom, and resources: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/momsoftweensandteens/ Join our Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/Momsoftweensandteens Find awesome resources on MOTTs University: https://www.mottsuniversity.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/momsoftweensandteens/ Sheryl also has an Inner Circle weekly Parenting Program with a community of like-minded moms, personal coaching, and tons of resources to equip and support you to love well, navigate the challenges and meet your tween and teen's unique needs during these pivotal years.

Mamas,  I know you are exhausted.  You struggle to get it all done in a day.  You NEVER STOP!  But guess what!??  Your family should be helping you!  I'm not sure why we, as moms, try to do it all by ourselves but we are doing our children an injustice.  They build confidence, organization and a positive self image by doing chores!   Responsibility builds Resilience!! LIttle kids can pick up toys and fold towels. Older kids can unload the dishwasher and scrub toilets.  Big kids can do it all! And then you can relax a little bit. You'll hear from a special guest today... my daughter, Kalli! Kalli is 18 and not only has been traumatized by helping around the house but says she will make her kids help around the house as well!

And because you allow it to do so, It will then emit its calming waves out from you, Calming the chaos from which you came. PAUSE… The bees will depart, The space will clear, The noise will dissolve.  And then, All that exists is the calm within you, And the calm around you, Wrapping you up in its blankets and carrying you off into the night. LONG PAUSE… So let yourself inhale a bit deeper, And exhale a little longer, Feeling your body slow down, Feeling your mind slow down, And letting your soul relax. PAUSE… Feel the blankets of calm covering you, As you release the tension from your face, Lower your shoulders, Open your chest, Soften your belly. PAUSE... Feel the calm cascading down your spine, From your neck, All the way down your back, Melting you deeper into your bed.  PAUSE… Feel your hips release, Your thighs relax, Your right leg grow heavy, And your left leg melt.  PAUSE… Let your toes release any energy left in your body, As your feet soften. LONG PAUSE… Sleep now, As your body is wrapped in the blankets of calm. As your mind swims in the sea of silence, And your soul is one with deep peace. Sweet Dreams, Beautiful.  

Dayna Abraham has developed a guide for parenting “challenging” kids - those with big emotions, power struggles; the misbehavers and neurodivergents. Her new bestselling book “Calm the Chaos - a Failproof Roadmap for Parenting Even the Most Challenging Kids'' is aimed at reframing what we typically label as “challenging” behaviour as an opportunity for adults to learn and empower their kids to reach their full, innate potential.  In this episode, Abraham talks about how her framework helps parents foster connections, understanding, and empowerment, while removing the stress and overwhelm of parenting. After all, some of the world's greatest innovators and change-makers were once labelled “challenging” children.  Dayna Abraham is the bestselling author of “The Superkids Activity Guide to Conquering Every Day” and “Sensory Processing 101”. She is also the founder of the popular parenting website “Lemon Lime Adventures.”  In this episode, you'll learn: The benefits of “challenging” behaviour in children How parents can learn from their children Why calmness is important in parenting Neurodivergence and neurodiversity How all behaviour is communication How to teach empathy to your children How to help your kids feel more seen, heard and understood Why you should communicate when you're upset or stressed  The problem with rewarding “good” behaviours    Quotables:  “Parents often jump to ‘what do we do about this situation?' instead of ‘how do we be in this situation?'” “To understand that you might not understand is pretty powerful.”   Links mentioned in this episode: Calm The Chaos book (order now)   Join The YES Effect Inner Circle Facebook Group for a behind the scenes experience about what it means to Believe, Belong and Become!

“I see you. I understand you. I care for you. I got you. When you turn that in toward you, the question is what does that translate to in terms of action. And sometimes that action is going out and doing something and sometimes that action is doing less.” - Nicola Taggart Oh, this is the conversation that everyone needs. I talked to one of my favorite people and the creator of The Calm the Chaos Journal, Nicola Taggart about how at the heart of self-care, we find self-love. Nicola is a life and leadership success strategist, coach, and author who has helped business owners, leaders and their teams improve their communication, increase their confidence and strengthen their connections, in all areas of their lives. She is also the author and creator of the Calm the Chaos Journal: A Daily Practice for a More Peaceful Life, and the Calm the Chaos Card Deck: 65 Simple Practices for a More Peaceful Life.

We also talk about: Finding self-care and self-compassion How to practice self-care in the middle of a busy schedule How to stop looking outward for success and have centered success Tangible tips on coming back to the center Get Nicola's free Winning with Well-Being Guide Hear Episode #53 with Nicola Taggart Connect with Nicola: Instagram Facebook Calm the Chaos Journal Calm the Chaos Card Deck Connect with Danielle: Buy the HIP Habits Workbook  Instagram Facebook  Twitter Website

Are toxic relationships wreaking havoc on your hormones and causing anxiety? Did you know that mothers who spend all day with their children produce MORE cortisol (the stress hormone) than 98% of the worlds paying professions? Nothing puts me into a stressful state like managing conflict and tension. It boils down to a LACK OF RESPECT AND SHOWING LOVE. The toxic relationships in my life have usually had a cocktail of these traits: Sarcasm- relies heavily on tone and context making it prone to misinterpretation.  Our kids don't always get this. Passive Aggressive (avoidance, sarcasm, subtle jabs, procrastination)  Bad communication- say what you mean and mean what you say Lack of honoring boundaries in time, money, priorities- none of us know what is happening in other's lives.   Emotional manipulation shows itself in *****logic *****guilt trips  ****helplessness(playing the victim)  ****even flattery ****threats ****gas lighting (manipulation when someone subtly or intentionally distorts another's perception of reality causing them to doubt their own memory, judgment, or sanity. 5.  Constant criticism TO have healthy relationships: Teach these words when they are happening Set boundaries Teach others how you need to be treated!

Analemma sponsored this episode.IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™… you're listening to a new Upgrade Spotlight series. Once a month, these shorter episodes feature guests who get right into useful information in a Q&A style. You'll find out how to improve your energy and upgrade your performance. You'll also get the latest knowledge about powerful tools and technologies that allow you to change your biology and the environment around you. Introducing Analemma! During this Upgrade Spotlight with Mario Brainovic, CEO of Analemma, you're going to find out about a tool that transforms regular water into a supercharged, full-spectrum, coherent state. The kind of water you drink absolutely influences the quality of your life. You'll learn the science behind Analemma and what it can do for your health and energy.Why water? You think you know the basics: stay hydrated daily, avoid plastic bottles and use a filtration system at home. Well, Analemma says water goes way beyond the basics—all the way down to your cellular level. You're 70% water in body mass, but 99% water on a molecular level. You're basically very clever water. The Analemma device—similar in looks and function to a magic wand—radically changes the state of drinking water. Environmental forces cause H2O molecules in drinking water to behave chaotically. At an atomic level, water molecules crash into each other constantly. Your body's susceptible to that influence.“We found a way to bring order to this chaos,” Mario says. “When you swirl an Analemma through the water, what happens is that those same H2O molecules start forming a liquid crystalline structure. They start behaving harmonically. They, colloquially speaking, join hands.”Analemma water is not exclusion zone water. It's something different. “It also is structured water, but we came to it in a very different way,” Mario says. “The key element to it is its stability.”This conversation gets right into the science of Analemma and several studies. You'll find out how:a new study is measuring the rise in ATP levels (in mitochondrial energy) when people drink this water.this water affects the human microbiome this water reduces your biological age by one to 12 years by regenerating your cellular system, according to GlycanAge.you get an instant balancing effect between the left and the right brain hemispherehow a cooling affect happens on your brainwaves almost instantly when drinking this waterthis water restores the biodiversity of infertile soilSPECIAL OFFER FOR THE HUMAN UPGRADE LISTENERS: Go to https://analemma-water.com and use code dave10 to save 10%.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
