Eat, Sleep, and Connect
Hosted by Cranbrook Community Connections
This all day event will focus on connecting with our children through food, relationship, and how to help with sleep issues. Multiple workshops, live in person.
The connection between food and relationship has become separated from one another despite how they were meant to be intertwined. This presentation will weave together the pieces of the feeding and eating puzzle by drawing on the fields of attachment science, neuroscience, developmental psychology, to cultural tradition. Come relish and savour in a thought provoking walk around our most basic human needs and nature’s answer to feeding our kids.
Constructs like emotional intelligence, emotional self-regulation, emotional well-being and emotional social learning are being bandied about like never before. Emotion, long dismissed as a nuisance factor,is now confirmed to be at the core of development and well-being. What are the implications for raising children? How can we ensure healthy hearts and what does heart hygiene look like? How do we teach our children the language of the heart? Should we be discouraging negative emotions’ and encouraging our children to calm down? This presentation will bring clarity to the plethora of confusing information bombarding parents and educators today.
