In this blog, I am providing tips to move your child from anxious to calm.
The story
On the 20th of January 2012, my life changed.
My son was born, and within a few minutes, he was ripped away from us to have surgery.
I remember being called into the room and the surgeon looking down at the floor; it was clear it was bad news.
In a shaken voice, he told us there was no hope, and our son would not survive.
I zoomed out as I felt my partner’s head on my shoulder and heard her tears.
He said we would be lucky if our son lasted a week and that there were no treatment options.
Our son was the first child to be born without any small bowel.
I insisted on speaking to more experts, and he was still here after a week.

Like most participants, I felt a bit hesitant at first and unsure about what I got myself into, but as the event started, I was quickly put at ease by the fantastic hosts.
The first day started with sharing and speaking about some of the challenges and shame we hold around sexuality.
I felt some resistance but went along, and as the day went on, I felt a slow opening, and it became clear that many of us struggle with the same issues and shame around our sexuality.

Arguments happen in all relationships.
Research has shown that arguments are usual and does not mean you can’t have a long and happy relationship.

They come together and try to understand the other, and while they might complain about the other’s actions, they never make it about their character.
Let’s look at some ways to reconnect once you have both calmed down.
