When little ones hear about violent events on the news, it can be hard to help them understand and cope with what happened. Limiting media exposure and making space for them to express big feelings can help children feel safer and more secure.

Managing big feelings? Here's one for the parents.
I am lost for words, as many are, so here is a quick guide that roots in the principles of trauma informed care.
--> Collaborate and involve them in age-appropriate ways.
--> Social connection is protective. Healing is relational.
--> Transparent decision making. Don't push their fears down but acknowledge and empower them to make decisions right now. They may choose to stay home to regulate. They may want to be dropped off rather than take public transport. Talk about ways of building safety in.
--> Support the nervous system. Ground where you can. Play is a beautiful way of doing this.
--> Recognise the impact of trauma, and in this case, working through using Jewish ways of being may provide an additional layer of protection.
Sending love to the Jewish community, as we stand firmly against anti-Semitism and any act of violence.
