Coach Ambereen explains how your emotional energy shapes your kids' behavior. When a mother shifted from harsh to intentional kindness and compassionate language, her daughter's meanness disappeared within a month. Your energy is contagious, especially before age seven.
Energy is a commodity. Either you're increasing it or draining it. Imagine, let's move in to your little humans, and until the age of 7, your kiddo's number one desire is to make you happy. So they're listening to you, watching you, and doing whatever you want. By the time that they get to 10 years of age, you start asking yourself, what am I doing wrong? Where have I failed? What happened to this kid? Hey, it's called evolution. You went through it too. If you are somebody who can relate to what I'm talking about, or your kid at the age of 10 just not practicing kindness, not showing up with love and gratitude and a thoughtfulness, this is the reality and the The truth that is so harsh to accept: your kids are reflecting the energy that you're operating with. So if kindness and love and compassion is missing in your tone and your energy, no wonder they're reciprocating the exact same thing. Here is the fun bit though. One of my clients said to me, "My daughter, she's just so mean. She's so self-centered." And in working with me in just one month, she saw a shift and a change in the way her daughter spoke to her. Why? Because the mom finally began to operate differently. She realized that she wanted to feel good in her relationships, so she began to change the way she was showing up with her daughter, you know, packaging things in kindness, making sure she's intentional about the words and the energy that she's using to communicate and converse with her daughter. Don't you want that for yourself too? Relationships that are filled with love, care, kindness, compassion, and understanding.
