As a Parent
- Frustrated from kids not listening?
- Tired from yelling at the people you love the most?
- Exhausted from feeling everything being a battle?
Being a parent is one of the most challenging roles we will ever have in our lives and unfortunately our contemporary society gives absolutely no training on how to be a good parent. We all love our kids but from my experience the ABC’s of parenting which are the love, common sense and natural instinct were not enough for me to help me raise my kids in a way that was serving them.
Learning the EFG’s of Parenting helped me transform my life and the lives of parents who learn them.

World Health Organization (WHO) defines overweight and obesity as "Abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that presents a risk to health". Body Mass Index (BMI)- ratio of person's weight (in kilograms) to square of height (in meters) - is the tool to measure obesity.
Childhood obesity is a serious public health problem globally. The prevalence of obesity among youth has been increasing steadily. Children who are overweight or obese are likely to stay obese into adulthood and are at risk to develop obesity related serious health problems including early puberty, insulin resistance, Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, stroke, sleep apnea, fatty liver disease, high cholesterol and orthopedic issues. These complications may lead early death. Also youth with overweight or obesity are at risk to develop psychological diseases such as depression, poor body image, eating disorder, and behavioral and learning disorders.
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

tobacco or drugs, or misuse alcohol
• Participating in athletic, community, or faith-
based groups
• Living in a community with youth activities that
prohibit drugs and alcohol
13.
14. An important goal is to
change the balance so
the effects of
protective factors
outweigh those of risk
factors.
15. How do I talk to
my child about
drugs?
Suggestions for talking to
preschoolers, elementary students,
middle, high school students
16. Conversation
starters
■ If you see a young person smoking, talk about
the negative effects of tobacco.
■ If you see an interesting news story, discuss it
with your child.
Did a driver who was drinking run over and kill
someone?
Did a young couple who did drugs lose custody of
their children?
Ask how your child feels about situations and the
potential consequences.
17. Conversation
starters
• While watching a movie or TV show with your
kids, ask if they think it makes tobacco, alcohol,
and drugs look cool.
• If you read or hear about someone affected by
substance use, remind your child that
preventing drug use is important but that some
people develop substance use disorders.
18. How to start conversation?
• Substance abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration (SAMHSA) has a campaign called
“Talk. They Hear You.”
• The app also suggests questions to ask and gives
ideas for keeping the conversation going.
www.samhsa.gov/underage-drinking/parent
19.
20. Will parenting
matter?
• Adolescents who have a good bond with an
adult are less likely to engage in risky
behaviors.
Adolescent health, 2016
www.healthypeople.gov
23. Question 1. Communication
• Are you able to communicate calmly and clearly
with your teenager regarding relationship
problems, such as jealousy or need for
attention?
25. Question 3. Negotiation
• Are you able to negotiate emotional conflicts
with your teenager and work toward a solution?
26. Question 4. Setting limits
• Are you able to calmly set limits when your
teenager is defiant or disrespectful?
27. Question 5. Supervision
• Do you monitor your teenager to assure that he
or she does not spend too much unsupervised
time with peers?
28. • Substance abuse and other problem behaviors
have roots in developmental changes that occur
in early childhood .
• While prevention can be effective at any age, it
can have particularly strong effects when applied
early.
30. Understanding
The Feelings
Behind
Aggressive
Behaviors
Aggression in the early years is
not a sign of a bad child or bad
parenting.
Aggression (hitting, biting,
screaming) are all signs a child is
in need of guidance.
Children don't act out
aggressively unless they are
distressed.
31. Understanding The Feelings Behind
Aggressive Behaviors
Common causes for aggressive behaviors in the early years are
related to feelings of frustration, upset, sadness or anxiety.
Before your child hits or bites, she is likely to experience a mix
of emotions.
The part of your child’s brain that controls outbursts and
reactions is still under construction.
32. Help them find new and better ways
to express what they are feeling is
more important than just stopping
the biting and hitting
33. Self-Regulation
• Having the ability to monitor
and control our own thoughts,
behaviors and respond
appropriately to each
situation.
• Essential for emotional well-
being .
• You can't make a child have it,
you can help them grow it.
34. How parents self-regulate and communicate with their children builds a
path for the development of a child's own self regulation skills as well.
Your interactions with your child while they are acting out actually can
have a great impact on your child's long term well-being.
36. • Research shows that a warm and responsive
parenting style, one that allows a full expression
of feelings, helps children better develop self-
regulation skills.
• Such a supportive parenting style also offers long
term benefits to a child's overall psychological
well-being (Kim, 2012. Carmody, 2015).
37. Play
• For the toddlers, preschoolers,
having an outlet for their
frustration, anger or upset is all
very important.
• Release energy; all help prevent
biting, hitting and other
aggression from building up.
• Skills related to working out
conflicts with their peers.
38. Focus on a
CAN DO plan:
• You CAN come to me if you need help sharing.
You CAN tell the teacher if you need help.
You CAN come to me if you feel upset.
We CAN take a break together if you need me.
• If your can do plan is positive and free of
punishments, your child will feel safe coming to
you when her feelings are overwhelming and in
turn you will be able to offer guidance to get your
child back on track.
39. Use Alternatives To Traditional
Discipline
• Young children can't comprehend the
rationale for punishments.
• They trust you to help them, to keep
them safe.
• It's scary to a child who is already feeling
overwhelmed with emotions to be sent
to sit alone or to have a favorite toy taken
away.
40.
41. When children choose aggression to
communicate unmet needs and difficult feelings
and we choose to punish them, we are ignoring
the very root of the problem.
Only stopping the behavior, without
actually teaching the child how to manage
what they feel, is like pretending you don't
have a flat tire when you really do.
42. Helpful
Alternatives
To
Punishment
For Aggressive
Behaviors:
• Calm Down Plan: Sit with your child and listen to them
and help them figure out what will help them choose
differently.
• Breathing Games: Teach your child how to take calming
breaths such as being a bunny or big lion to release
stress.
• Making pictures: “How big is your anger" and “How big is
your Fear" pictures are often helpful for children to start
talking about what they are feeling and how they can
choose to change their behavior
43. What are the two most important
emotional needs of kids?
45. Parent’s
personality
assessment
Our personality priority (natural tendency),
determines our reactions to kids
Most of the problem is our reactions, the
way we respond to them
It is us who create power struggles
You can override it and get more +response
47. Ego states of personality
1. PARENT 2. ADULT 3. CHILD
48. Mind- Body-
Soul Time
• Time spent between one parent and
one child
• Emotionally available ( child ego state)-
fully present
• Doing what the child wants to do
• 10 min , once a day, every day
• One time per day with each child
• Scheduling time reduces their anxiety
about when they will get their next one
to one with you
49. Mind- Body-
Soul Time
• Feeling great about yourself as a parent
• Emotional nutrician for you and your
kid
• Fewer attention -seeking / poer
seeking behavior
• Fosters emotional connection
50. Attention bucket & Power bucket
We can give them what they need in a positive way
57. Not being on their team
• Ordering, correcting, directing
• Unreasonable expectations
• Too much control
Becoming more controlling as their need for
autonomy increases
