Present Moment Parenting

The Guide to a Peaceful Life with Your Intense Child

By: Tina Feigal

Narrated by: Tina Feigal

Nationally acclaimed parent coach and trainer Tina Feigal returns with this revised edition of her book, formerly titled The Pocket Coach for Parents. With new content on trauma-effective parenting, Present Moment Parenting: Your Guide to a Peaceful Life with Your Intense Child will help you:

• Understand the connection between the child's heart and brain
• Recognize how the brain responds to stress and trauma
• Learn effective parenting strategies to decrease intensity and create peace at home

There are many reasons a child doesn't respond to typical parenting techniques - a mental health diagnosis (such as ADHD or ODD), a life challenge (such as divorce or removal from home), autism, attachment issues, giftedness, physical or emotional trauma - or simply being ''hard to handle". Whatever the root cause of the intensity, Present Moment Parenting will give you the tools you need to create a peaceful life.
