Synopsis:

Help children of all ages learn life-long skills – how to sleep, self-soothe and feel calm. An easy-to-absorb, holistic guide from physician and child-development consultant Adam Blanning.

What can parents do to avoid bedtime meltdowns? Why do established settling routines stop working? How can children be encouraged to fall asleep more consistently? What simple, natural steps can parents take to help children feel calm?

Based on extensive research and using clear examples, Adam Blanning MD offers practical ways in which parents and carers can support children to use their senses – from taste, smell and touch, through to balance and movement – to self-soothe, sleep and ultimately build resilience for life. This insightful book explores a range of methods for children from newborns to teenagers, and tackles key parental concerns, including:

  • Tips for settling toddlers who always say 'No!'
  • How to establish calming daily rhythms
  • Ways to help children settle during times of anxiety
  • Self-soothing techniques that can improve disruptive behaviour

He organizes training courses in anthroposophic medicine for physicians and other healthcare providers and works regularly with Waldorf schools as a developmental consultant. Dr. Blanning is a past president of the Anthroposophic Health Association (AHA) and the author of Understanding Deeper Developmental Needs, an in-depth exploration of challenging behaviours in children.
