Welcome To The La La Tigers blog

Were you brought up to be 'a good girl', to inhibit your feelings, repress your self expression and constantly minimise yourself in order to get people to like you or not feel threatened by your confidence? This sets such a destructive precedent for our children. In order to break the chain of this conditioning it's vital that we're the model, not the mirror. We can show our children how to live to their fullest expression, and shine.

Confidence is key to living our dreams - so what is it, how do we get it, and how do we instil it in our kids? Watch and deep dive into the need to stop minimising ourselves, to acknowledge our true feelings, and to wear that red lipstick or feathery earrings on the school run...because confidence starts with us (and you never know who you'll inspire just by being yourself)!

When your children are in the theta brainwave state (under age 7) this is when they're most suggestible. Always bring your attention to how you are defining yourself and your children, because that is going to be the model of how they define themselves, who they think they are, and what they think they are capable of.

Before age 7 building children's confidence and self esteem is crucial. Children under 7 believe everything they're told... about themselves and about the world around them and they accept this as fact. This becomes their model of the world. Their brains are still in a hyper-learning phase with much slower brainwaves, called Theta. This is the same brainwave state that as Hypnotherapists, we relax adults to, in order to to access their subconscious mind and reframe moments that have kept them stuck.  This is why I work with parents of children under 7, to make sure we instil them with confidence and self esteem for life, as their belief systems are forming.

Taking bold steps outside our comfort zone takes courage -- and that's the deeper root of confidence, doing it from the heart -- giving ourselves permission to 'fail upwards' until we can.

As far as I'm concerned there are only two energies, there's fear and there's love.

At LaLa Tigers I'm passionate about helping children and parents understand that and helping them move beyond fear so they can thrive -- because you're either in survival -- or you're in growth.

Sometimes we reach a breaking point, but that point can become a point of transformation when we decide to do the work on ourselves. When we heal ourselves, and put our self care first, then we can raise secure and confident kids.

If I asked you what you wanted for your child, I know you would want your child to be happy, but I also bet you would want them to believe in themselves.  But what is a belief and why are they so important?

Our belief’s are the very essence of who we are. They are the stories we tell ourselves about who we are, what we are capable of and who we think we're going to be. And these stores are planted in our minds in early childhood. Between the ages of 2 and 7, our children are in a hyper learning phase called the imprinting stage, which is  essential for our survival. Our brainwaves are in theta, which is much slower than when we are adults and it makes us highly suggestible, but it means that we are absorbing everything around us and accepting it as fact.  It's one of the reasons that childhood is so magical. We believe everything. But that’s the good stuff and the bad stuff.  This programme is then what we use on a largely unconscious basis, to run ...
