One of the suggested methods to begin our communication with our children is to self-soothe. Based on what we have practiced during the session, what are some of the challenges that you are facing with regards to applying this technique?

I think the difficulty would be adopting a style that doesn't fit us. Perhaps we have already been used to imposing our 'authority' to get our children listen to us since they were young, and now self-soothe is such a brand new way of communicating with children that we might feel a bit taken aback.
However, I do feel that just as the children are going through a series of physical, emotional and psychological changes, and as they are trying their best to adapt to these changes, we should also adapt to these changes and revise our ways of parenting to it.

Oh I face difficulty when thinking of a particular self soothe method to use each time because there are so many different types of self-soothing techniques! There's internal and external resources that we can tap on to self-soothe and I think that's my greatest learning point: to learn to use the technique that can suit me most!
