About this listen

When everything is too much, how do we meet that moment with compassion, not control?

In this episode of Beneath Behaviour, Jackie Hall guides you through what to do during a meltdown, when your child’s emotions are big, their nervous system is flooded, and everything feels chaotic.

We explore:

  • The stages of a meltdown, and how to respond to each
  • What co-regulation really means in practice
  • How to avoid the “conflict cycle”
  • Why logic and teaching don’t work when survival mode takes over
  • How to reconnect and repair afterwards


✨ This is part two of our series on meltdowns. If you haven’t heard “Before the Meltdown,” go back and start there.
