๐ BRIDGING THE GAP
Episode 26: Attunement & Scaffolding: https://youtu.be/zjwjpd5SWbs
โจ Growth happens in safe, supported steps.
Attunement means tuning in to anotherโs needs, while scaffolding offers just enough support for growth. How can we use these tools to foster resilience?
๐ง The Brain on Attunement
- ๐ When others โgetโ us, the brain releases oxytocin, reinforcing trust.
- ๐ง Attuned interactions help regulate emotions and build secure relationships.
- ๐ Scaffolding provides the right balance of challenge and support for growth.
- ๐ค Co-regulation through attunement helps others find their own balance.
๐ฌ๏ธ Breath as Presence
- ๐ฑ Inhale awareness. Exhale distraction.
- ๐ Being present with ourselves allows us to be present with others.
- ๐ Each breath strengthens the foundation for connection.
โค๏ธ Supporting Growth
- ๐ We grow best when we feel seen, heard, and supported.
- ๐ค๏ธ Offering just enough help fosters independence and confidence.
- ๐ Attuned relationships create the space for transformation.
๐ญ โThe most precious gift we can offer others is our presence.โ โ Thich Nhat Hanh
