Holiday meals can be a challenge if your child is a picky eater, especially with family and friends offering food or commenting on their choices. Here are some tips to help keep the holiday season positive and stress-free: Set Expectations with Family: Let relatives know ahead of time that your child may decline certain foods. Encourage them to avoid pressuring or making comments about your child's eating habits. Bring Familiar Foods: Pack a few tried-and-true favorites your child loves to ensure they have something to eat. Bonus: This can also ease your stress! Empower Your Child: Teach your child polite ways to decline food, like saying, “No, thank you.” Let them know it’s okay to skip dishes they aren’t comfortable with. Avoid Pressuring or Overexplaining: If comments arise, gently redirect the conversation. For example, “We’re working on expanding tastes at home, and we’re happy with their progress!” The holidays are about enjoyment, so keep mealtimes stress-free, and allow your child to enjoy the food and festivities at their own pace. Follow along for more tips on how to help your family enjoy the holidays this season. 🎁❤️ #PickyEaters #ParentingTips #anxiety #focus #adhd #brainbalancecenters

The holiday season brings lots of down time, but it can also lead to an increase in screen time for kids. While some screen time is okay, excessive daily use can cause meltdowns and issues with emotional regulation. Balancing screen time with other activities is key to supporting your child's well-being during the holidays. Here are some tips for parents to manage screen time without removing it entirely: Have a frank discussion beforehand: The week before the holidays, talk to your kids about the break and what it means. Explain why screen time will be limited even though they are not in school and don't have homework. Make screen time something you do together: Instead of your child spending their allotted screentime with their nose buried in individual devices, spend your holiday screen time watching movies together. By setting boundaries and encouraging alternative activities, you can ensure your kids enjoy a healthy, balanced holiday season!

🧠 Gratitude and Your Brain: What's the Connection? 🧠 Did you know practicing gratitude daily can rewire your brain for positivity and success? The same brain areas that control emotions and behavior also handle focus and problem-solving. Keeping your brain “happy” with gratitude can spark creativity, boost productivity, and widen your attention span! 🧠 Why Gratitude Works: Negative thoughts drain energy from your brain’s prefrontal cortex, reducing focus and performance. Positive thinking lights up the brain’s reward pathways, boosting serotonin and dopamine—the chemicals that make us feel good! 🧠 How to Practice Gratitude: 📝 Keep a daily gratitude journal. 🎧 Listen to positive affirmations. 🧘 Practice meditation and mindfulness. 💬 Share gratitude with others (e.g., “I’m grateful for your help!”). What are you grateful for this Thanksgiving? Let us know in the comments below! Read more on our blog at https://lnkd.in/ew5ZTnyY. #Gratitude #PositiveThinking #Neuroplasticity #BrainBalance
