In this weekβs Bucket Emptying episode, Iβm answering the question - how do we as parents regulate our own emotions?
If youβre a regular listener you know that I've covered some really big bumper episodes around βhow do we help our children manage their big emotionsβ.
One of the things I've talked about quite a lot in those episodes is about how we need to make sure that we're self-regulated so that when we meet our child's big emotions, when those emotions hit and meet ours, that we're self-regulated so that we're better able to manage their emotions.
So that raises a big bucket emptying question of how do we actually regulate our own emotions? Join me as I share my top tips.

Today's Bucket Emptying podcast episode delves into the powerful practice of gratitude. Research shows that our brain cannot differentiate between reality and imagination, so by focusing on what we're grateful for, we immerse ourselves in positivity and joy. This mindset not only brings small wins and happiness but also sets the right tone before bedtime.
Similar to how we must secure our oxygen masks first on a plane, prioritising our own gratitude practice is crucial before guiding our children to do the same.
What are you grateful for today?
