Back-to-School Success for a Young Child

How can SciStress help a youngster with school? How can it help a busy professional mom with her daughter? How can it support good communication between mother and child?
 
Challenges for moms have increased. Raising a child is a challenge all by itself. Keeping the family’s home life organized usually falls to the woman. There are many challenges even for a stay-at-home mom. But today there are very few stay-at-home moms. Most women today work, many in demanding professional jobs. Therefore, caring successfully for a growing child is not an easy task. All these challenges create tremendous stress not just for mom but also for the child.
 
How can SciStress help? SciStress techniques are simple natural techniques, which are easy to use yet highly effective. Even young children can learn them. Now here’s a story a professional mom told me. Her daughter started first grade recently. She is busy with various projects in web development and marketing. Her husband is a researcher who spends long hours at the lab six days a week. You can easily see, lots of challenges for this mom.
 
Her young daughter, let’s call her Regina, had developed a nervous tick at her right eye. She also didn’t always sleep well. That got mom concerned. Mom talked to her about what was going on in school, but Regina wouldn’t tell her anything. That’s when mom thought of the SciStress techniques, could they really help? Mom taught her daughter and practiced with her many times over the weekend and the next few days before and after school.
 
After a few days Regina's tick had disappeared, and she began sleeping through the night. Mom would use the technique with her especially before bedtime so she was relaxed and could go to sleep easily. Now the amazing thing which happened was this. When mom sat with her at her bed practicing the techniques, Regina would start spontaneously to talk about what happened at school. Mom could praise her for good things that happened. She could also help her with stress at school. These regular mom and daughter evening talks led to a much closer and more intimate level of communication for the two!
 
Want to experience similar results?
We have taught a simplified version of SciStress technique to children as young as four years. And Judy has worked with young mothers and their babies when they were just weeks old.
 
If you or someone you love have issues to resolve, we would be happy to help. Our coaching may not “fix” all problems, but we have helped many people reduce stress in many different situations. Check out our free initial consultation. Clients will learn the techniques in a way to help themselves any time and any place. You may recommend our book, which explains the brain science in easy to understand terms and teaches the techniques thoroughly.
 
With warm regards,                    Fred & Judy

Mom’s Little Child Couldn’t Sleep!

6/26/2019

0 Comments

 
Picture
Mom and daughter Ria were very excited. The next day the little six-year-old would have her children’s ballet performance. Ria and her class had trained for several weeks for this performance. Ria is a very lively intelligent girl. She loves her kindergarten class and is a great student. But more than anything else she looks forward to her ballet class. Therefore, this children’s performance was anticipated with great expectation for many weeks.
 
So excited, how could Ria go to sleep?
The evening before the great day time came to go to bed. Mom talked with Ria and told her how important a good night sleep would be for her. Without that sleep she could not be at her best the next day. Ria told her mom she knew that and she would sleep extra well.
 
Relaxing music and talk therapy.
But sleep would not come! Mom quietly talked to her again to help her settle down. Then she put on some quiet sleeping music which always worked before. Still little Ria just could not fall asleep. Mom talked some more to her. She told her how the restful night would help her with her performance. They talked some more; you could call it “talk therapy”. To no avail.
 
Under stress we forget.
Now this mom had been to several SciStress workshops. She had used the techniques frequently. She was an expert. She had taught the techniques to her daughter and they had used them together many times. This evening not getting Ria to sleep had created a little bit of a stressful situation for them both. One of the most typical stress reactions is that we forget and we don’t easily see alternatives for action. Why does that happen? The reason is that in stress mode our autonomic nervous system immediately pulls our blood from our thinking brain. There is less oxygen available to think, remember, and make good decisions. This is very natural yet also very unfortunate. It is a very good reason to use our fast-working and effective stress reduction method.
 
Sound sleep for a great performance.
Becoming a little bit worried about Ria not sleeping, mom finally remembered SciStress tapping techniques. And she started gently using them on little Ria who was still quite hyped up. Ria immediately began to relax. Her body melted into bed and pillows. Her eyelids slowly dropped. Her face had a quiet smile. In less than five minutes the little girl was fast asleep. The next day, full of energy Ria did a great job performing at the children’s ballet.
 
By the way, Judy and I both use the technique whenever we have trouble sleeping. It works perfectly for adults too. Many of our clients confirm this. The stress hormone cortisol stays in the blood stream longer. Therefore, it is often the reason we can’t get to sleep or wake up frequently. Reducing the stress response in our brain quickly calms the nerves and no more need to produce cortisol.
 
Sleep better and live longer!

Warm regards,                    Fred & Judy

Mother's Day STRESS, perhaps even Guilt?

5/11/2017

The picture of Fred's motherFred's mother
What a strange thought!
How can a wonderful day which honors mom be stressy?
​Why would feelings of guilt intrude on such happiness?
 
Because being a mother can bring a lot of stress with it. And being a daughter or a son, we do not always fully appreciate the pressures mom experiences. For one thing, mom usually does most of the jobs around the house. That is true even if she has a full-time job like many of you moms have.
 
Therefore, it is easy to feel guilty for not looking after the children enough, not spending enough time with the family, not having the home perfectly organized and clean.
 
Or mom experiences stress about the children in their teens becoming independent, wanting to be free, and pushing all kinds of limits to the nth degree. Or the children being far away and worrying about their well-being.
 
My own mom, I am certain, resides in Heaven since the year 2000. I can only fully appreciate her skill, courage, perseverance and love since I began my work with stress 5 years later. Mom was born in the middle of World War I. She lived through the 1920s which were much worse in Germany than e.g. the Great Depression in the USA, and then the Nazi era and World War II. She lost her 2nd son, my little brother, at the end of the war. She raised me, then an only child, as a single working mother. She used her wits to get jobs as her family thought the girl didn’t need to go to college.
 
Now I hope your mom had it a bit easier and grew up in peace. Still it is never easy to carry and raise children, even if they bring you lots of joy. If you are a mother you know.
 
So this Mother’s Day make it easy and sweet for mom! If you are mom, make sure to tell your family clearly what you want and what you would appreciate. Make sure there is good communication. And there can be tension and misunderstanding between mothers and the kids. That is more common than we think and often quite natural. Therefore, exercise kindness and forgiveness for this special day and all the time to come. Your life and mom’s will be easier and happier for it.
 
Plan this important day well and it can be a joyful stress free experience for mom and family. And practice gratitude which is a wonderful experience for those who give it and those receiving it.
 
Wishing you and yours a wonderful and stress free Mother’s Day.
 
Your, being so very grateful for his mother, stress analyst,

Fred George Sauer

Joy and Stress

Being a mom brings a lot of joy.

It fills your life and it is a mission nature has prepared and actually built you for.

And you know it, there is also a lot of stress. Lots of demands constantly all at the same time.

Wouldn't it be good to have an easy way to lessen the daily stress load?...
