A child's brain is not an adult brain. So how do you share tapping with a child while respecting their developing brain and instilling resilience, self-regulation and emotional intelligence?
Regarding children's mental health tips focused on self care, and the earlier the better, world renowned Developmental Psychologist Dr. Gordon Neufeld shares, "We couldn't be more misdirected in terms of emotional health and well being."
Would you pull on a plant to make it grow? Would you deny it the soil, light and water its dropping or wilting leaves are expressing a need for?
I have yet to find research on tapping with children that is developmentally-informed. Without a developmentalist's input and review, research on tapping with children is incomplete; it's about as informative as research proving the earth is flat because no one falls off of it - the force of gravity is a critical consideration. Likewise the force of development needs to be considered in research on tapping with children.*
Bring your questions and cases to this developmentally-informed and attachment-focused session to explore together considerations of tapping with children, from newborn to adulthood. As an Attachment Specialist and Infant/Child Development Consultant I offer perspective that respects the developing brain and prioritizes meeting children's biological need for secure connection first and foremost.
