Lecture I: Self-Regulation and Attachment--Understanding the Emotional Life of Children

This lecture will be an exploration of two theories of emotional regulation that are both consistent with Naturopathic philosophy and also valuable in their further explication of the emotional life of children. The emotions of anger, frustration, sadness, and apathy, often felt and sometimes expressed by children, are important to understand in the context of attachment and self-regulation so that we as physicians can educate our patients and help to bring their family life into greater health.

Attachment theory, born out of the observations and research of John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth, brought a tremendous amount of attention and respect to the mother-child relationship. The patterns of secure or insecure attachment and the various stages of detachment play a profound role in the development of children and adult life. The discoveries of Wilhelm Reich further elucidate the dynamics of the emotional regulation that occurs between parent and child and help ground attachment theory in a bio-energetic and functional basis consistent with the neo-vitalist tradition of Naturopathic medicine. Come join us as these two theoretical stances and their implications for medical practice are presented and discussed.
