Why Talking About Feelings Doesn’t Work During a Meltdown (But Play Does) – Motheroo Podcast
In this episode, we unpack what’s really happening beneath your child’s biggest behaviours through the lens of the window of tolerance and play therapy. You’ll learn how hyperarousal (meltdowns, explosions) and hypoarousal (shutdowns, “zoning out”) are nervous-system states, not “naughtiness” or manipulation, and why traditional responses like time-outs often miss the mark. Together, we explore practical, play-based strategies to help kids regulate in the moment, gently widen their window over time, and strengthen the parent–child connection along the way. Perfect for parents, carers, and educators wanting evidence-based tools they can actually use in everyday family life.Read the blog post:MotherooHQ.comFollow us:instagram.com/motherooHQinstagram.com/motheroopodcasttiktok.com/@motherooHQtwitter.com/motherooHQfacebook.com/motherooHQ
