Why sensitive kid wont take deep breaths

If you're the parent of a highly sensitive child, you've probably tried everything to help them manage their meltdowns.

Breathing exercises, counting to ten, talking it out afterwards... but nothing seems to stick.

It's an endless cycle of reactivity, and it's exhausting for everyone involved.

But here's the thing: it's not your fault, and it's not your child's fault either.

The real problem is that most therapists and parenting strategies focus on reactive care. They wait for a meltdown to happen, then try to slap a band-aid skill on it and hope for the best.

But that's like trying to build a house without a foundation. It might look okay for a minute, but it won't stand up to the first big storm.

Your child needs a systematic approach to emotional regulation. They need to understand not just WHAT skills to use, but HOW and WHEN to use them.

This isn't something that can be taught in the heat of the moment. It's a process of building emotional awareness and resilience over time.

And that's exactly what we specialize in at Megghan Thompson Coaching.

Our 5-step protocol is designed to help you break out of the reactive cycle and give your child the tools they need to thrive.

We'll help you create a Meltdown Prevention Plan, become a Playful Communication Ninja, and build a Shame-Free Behavior Management system that actually works.

But most importantly, we'll be there to support you every step of the way. Because we know that your stamina and consistency are the keys to your child's success.
