body. Ask them what their body does. My face feels hot when Samantha makes fun of me. My heart races when I have to share my toys with Timmy. Help them name the emotion that might correspond to those bodily sensations (shame, anger, jealousy) and allow them to try different ways to actively soothe those sensations. Remember, these will not always be the same as the ways you find helpful; think of this process as an opportunity to learn about your children as unique humans.
