Episode 1: Co-Regulation and Mindfulness for Young Children: Launching Plant the Seed of Learning

In our debut episode of Plant the Seed of Learning, Aimee and Crystal introduce the mission behind the podcast—merging the education and medical models to bring science-based, practical insights to parents, teachers, therapists, and policymakers. We walk through our seven recurring segments and dive into this week’s topic: the real science of co-regulation and developmentally appropriate mindfulness. Learn why young children can’t self-regulate on their own, what the research actually says about mindfulness in early childhood, and one simple strategy you can try tomorrow.
