The New Way to Discipline Your Child
Co-regulation is a more effective parenting strategy compared to traditional parenting practices. Co-regulation focuses on empathy, open communication, and understanding resulting in stronger parent-child relationships. Unlike conventional discipline, co-regulation acknowledges emotions, encourages self-expression, and supports a child’s development of self-control. By providing guidance and support rather than punishment, co-regulation creates a nurturing environment that promotes positive behavior and emotional well-being in children, ultimately strengthening the parent-child bond. Check out our website to register for a 3-part parenting group on co-regulation coming soon!

What is Pediatric Occupational Therapy?
Pediatric Occupational therapy significantly contributes to children’s development and well-being by addressing diverse physical, cognitive, sensory, and emotional challenges. The primary goal is to enhance a child’s confidence and independence in everyday activities. Occupational therapists collaborate closely with children to identify specific needs and tailor interventions, such as finger painting for fine motor skill improvement. Additionally, occupational therapy adopts a holistic approach to sensory processing challenges, using techniques like swinging and textured play. This fosters improved sensory modulation, enhancing focus, emotional regulation, and self-esteem. The therapy extends to cognitive and social-emotional skills, promoting problem-solving, memory, and social interactions.

A healthy December lays the foundation for a fulfilling start to the new year, promoting both physical and emotional vitality.
Handling The Holidays
Whatever holiday you celebrate this season, even if you’re surrounded by family and friends, it can be stressful. Making sure that your body and mind can handle stress is the best gift that you can give yourself. One of the best ways to improve your overall health and stress-handling ability is through Bioenergetics. Bioenergetics uses computerized testing and treatment to effectively determine and treat any imbalance or weakness in the body that is preventing you from achieving both optimal stress management and improved health. This holiday season, make sure that stress isn’t an unwanted gift that you can’t give back.
Fun Winter Activities for Older Adults
As outdoor picnics and waterfront walks yield to winter, the season beckons with a host of delightful activities for family and friends. The Courtyards of Linden Pointe suggests crafting hot cocoa jars—a charming gift or comforting treat with layered ingredients like cocoa powder, powdered milk, sugar, salt, and marshmallows. Transforming leftover jars into DIY snow globes adds a personal touch with distilled water, glycerin, glitter, and perhaps a mounted photo. Embrace the warmth of card or board game nights, fostering laughter and connection. Baking classic winter sugar cookies becomes a joyous bonding experience, whether with family, friends, or neighbors. Winter offers endless opportunities for shared enjoyment and creativity.
