Not to the snap itself — to what lives underneath it. To your nervous system, and why it learned to respond the way it does. To the guilt that follows the hard moment and makes the next one more likely. To what your child really needs from you — something no technique can give her.
No guide can help you stop the hard moments; running into conflicts with others is a part of being human. But you can change what you understand about those hard moments — and what you carry into them.
This is the first guide in a seventeen-part series exploring the mother’s inner world, the child’s world, and what becomes possible in the space between them.
