"My dear little one, if you are upset, I promise to share my calm."

We are excited to share that Dr. Jillian Roberts' latest book "Calm" comes out February 2022!

From Orca Publishers:

"This soothing board book by child psychologist, professor and author Dr. Jillian Roberts was written to remind us that the little people in our lives need us to be their calm. To recognize their big feelings, teach them how to honor them and let them go. A valuable tool to help young ones learn to co-regulate, Calm is just as much for babies as it is the adults in their lives."

Here are some super simple ways to be a better (active) listener:

As we start to wrap our heads around moving away from the strictest physical distancing regulations and towards more “normal” lives, it’s a good idea to take a little time to process and reflect on what we’ve learned about ourselves over the past year. Chances are we’ve had a little more time to really examine our lives and whether we’re spending our time and energy the way we want to (whether we welcomed these realizations with open arms or not).
