Just finished talking to Tino about what it means to ground down. Tomorrow he starts 6th grade!!! And honestly he is a true mix of me and his father... He is HIGHLY sensitive just as I was and so was his father. I was a fighter and anytime I felt overwhelmed I would get emotional angry or physically. His dad... Was a crier. He would get soooo upset that he would cry. We both found ways to deal with our emotions... I chose yoga and he chose weight lifting 😁 In any case if you have ever met Tino you know he can be bashful and really it comes down to him just being uncomfortable in his own skin .... There are so many reasons for this and until HE can work through the thoughts and feelings he has, I can only offer him what I know has worked for me. So we talked about deep breathing, exhaling and starting fresh breaths, and grounding down... Touching something solid. I have prepped all the teachers and I feel pretty good but this is a new space and a turning point in his life!! I love my kid for the person he is AND we are either going to need to implement a daily yoga practice ... Pranayama, asana, and mediation or we will need to seek professional services.
