Salam Alaikum sisters. How are you feeling today? 🌸
Who is still saying “ better and better Alhamdulillah”, keep continuing 😊 Effect you’ll see if you say it continuously around a month.
So today about COUGHING. Do you know at least one child who has never had a cough? I think, more or less often, everyone has a cough. From the medical side, it will be diagnosed as infection: bronchitis, pharyngitis, laryngitis etc., and prescribed medications.
But what “ message” cough brings to the mother from psychosomatics side?
😮💨"Mom, pay attention to me! And... "Mom, why is all the attention only to others, and not to yourself? (there may be variations)".
When the child coughs, the mother turns to the child, gets worried and the attention goes to the child…
😮💨"Mom, let me take a deep breath, I'm suffocating!" And... "Mom, what prevents you from taking a deeper breath in life? What is suffocating you?" - breathing is about free breathing, and when in life there are a lot of control, tension, restrictions in personal space - it becomes more and more difficult to breathe, as if you are suffocating from stress...
😮💨"Mom, I'm scared! And... "Mom, what are you so afraid of?" - in psychosomatics, "inhaled " fear "lives" in the lower respiratory tract, so you need to assess yourself aren’t you as a mother afraid of the child's health when even the slightest runny nose appears, and is child's environment safe for you and your child.
😮💨"Mom, I'm very sad" and "Mom, why is there so much sadness in your life?" the respiratory system is also an association of happiness, lightness, joy in psychosomatics. Remember yourself when you are happy and relaxed - how deep and light your breath is, and when sad - whole body shrinks and closes from the surrounding world...
Not each time coughing or any other disease can be related with psychosomatics but because you knowing now where to pay attention be more cautious about surrounding, yourself and your child. Fear, sadness, not safe environment, to much control, restrictions affecting your’s and child’s physical health. Especially pay attention to psychosomatics possibilities when it’s prolonged or persistent coughing/ asthma/or child starts coughing suddenly.
And again would like to remind you that mother’s emotions directly influencing kid’s emotions and wellbeing till 3 years old. And mother’s and children’s connection, they relation, atmosphere at home plays a huge role in children mental and physical wellbeing all childhood.
Wishing you to stay healthy, bright and very happy❤️
P.S. Children exchanging bacterias in school and nurseries naturally too. But please pay attention as well to children’s emotions and feelings before and after school, and how school/ nursery environment is friendly to your children.
