The Important of REST when Parenting A Traumatized Child
By Ron Huxley, LMFT
Parenting a traumatized child can be challenging and exhausting work. It isn’t something that should be done alone without adequate support. Parents must take care of themselves as well as others. You can’t give away what you don’t have… Faith-based families look to God for their help (Psalms 121:1-2) and operate from a place of REST:
“Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28
“He restores my soul.” Psalms 23:
REST stands for RE-store your Soul from Trauma. Our soul includes our entire being: body, mind/emotions and spirt. Each area requires attention. How do we do that when we have an endless to-do list, dealing with continuous problems?
The key is to find rest IN work, not FROM work. It is a mental recognition that we can be in partnership with God and others. We can set boundaries and say “No” to outside activities, not live up to others expectations, and remembering “who you are and whose you are” spiritually speaking. You have to be a “son or daughter” before you can be a fully functioning father or mother. Seek out spiritual parents to support you as you carry on the work of parenting traumatized children.

The Benefits of Mosaic Weighted Blankets® for Anxiety, Stress, and Insomnia
Adults, teens, and children can benefit from weighted blanket therapy. Mosaic Weighted Blankets are a safe and effective non-drug therapy for anyone seeking a solution for loss of sleep and relaxation.
“In psychiatric care, weighted blankets are one of our most powerful tools for helping people who are anxious, upset, and possibly on the verge of losing control,” says Karen Moore, OTR/L, an occupational therapist in Franconia, N.H.
“These blankets work by providing input to the deep pressure touch receptors throughout the body,” Moore says. “Deep pressure touch helps the body relax. Like a firm hug, weighted blankets help us feel secure, grounded, and safe.” Moore says this is the reason many people like to sleep under a comforter even in summer. (Source: Psychology Today)

Special Free Report: “Balancing Love and Limits in the NonTraditional Family”
by Ron Huxley, LMFT
Balancing love and limits in discipline is one of the most
challenging aspects of parenting. Love and limits refer to
different styles of parenting with love representative of a
“permissive” or child centered style of parenting and limits
representative of “authoritative” or parent centered style. Each
style is based on a set of beliefs, in the parent, about what it
means to be a good parent. No one wants to be a bad parent.
They adopt a style that they feel best meets the goal of
parenting to raise children that are able to manage themselves
and function productively in the world.
