We’re all different – sure we share many similarities as a species, but physiologically, neurologically, even spiritually we are different. So why do we expect everyone to meet a certain standard – especially children?
Our brain is the body’s computer, controlling bodily functions, like breathing, heart rate and digestion, and nearly every aspect of how we feel, think, and behave. Yet we manage people through a behavioural approach, using consequences as a control.
Imagine for a moment what it must be like for a child whose brain is still developing and neurodiverse…meaning that their brain doesn’t respond as a neurotypical brain might.
Eileen Devine designed the Brain First Approach to support parents raising children with a unique brain, through tools and strategies designed to keep everyone calm in stressful and frustrating situations.
Something Eileen experienced with adopted daughter Maya, propelling her on a quest for information that directed her to refocus her clinical studies. In this episode she explains why neurobiology matters and what effect it has on the way we interact.
