What if the secret to helping your child regulate their emotions… is already playing on your speakers?In this episode, I’m joined by board-certified music therapist and fellow neurodivergent mom, Samantha Foote, to explore how music can be a powerful (and joyful!) regulation tool for kids with ADHD, autism, and other complex needs. We chat about everything from angry drumming sessions between siblings to writing silly blues songs to cueing transitions with the right rhythm.Samantha shares how rhythm is hardwired into our bodies — and how we can use that to our advantage when emotions run high. Whether your kid calms to classical, beatboxes their stress away, or creates heavy metal drum loops on an iPad, this episode is packed with practical ways to make music work for your beautifully complex child.Listen now and discover how one song could be the bridge between chaos and calm.You can find additional resources at <a href="http://parentingadhdandautism.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">parentingadhdandautism.com</a> and <a href="https://www.notion.so/1286dd5454258030a412e376595bf094?pvs=21" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Regulated Kids.com</a> — because it’s not just about the struggles, it’s about progress, one step at a time.Show notes and more resources at <a href="https://parentingadhdandautism.com/319" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">parentingadhdandautism.com/319</a>Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/beautifully-complex--6137613/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/beautifully-complex--6137613/support</a>.
