NHA HOW DOES IT WORK?

NHA was built on the simple observation that we get more of whatever we energize. Children – especially intense or difficult ones – intuitively know how to get our full connection through negative behaviors.

FLIPPING THE SCRIPT

NHA calls for flipping the script. Mega doses of positivity. Clearly defined rules and a conscious- ly low key approach to negativity do not just modify children’s behavior but transforms it into positive behavior.

THE NHA CORE METHODOLOGIES

ABSOLUTELY NO ENERGY TO NEGATIVITY

I refuse to lecture, reprimand, or give energy to behaviors I wish to stop. No more long discussions about what is wrong, not even kind and loving
connection to negativity.

ABSOLUTELY YES TO POSITIVITY

I relentlessly energize and hijack any first hand experience of success.  There are so many moments that we can nurture.

ABSOLUTELY CLEAR

I provide clear rules with a brief unenergized consequence each time a rule is broken. The reset is not punitive; its just a way of getting back on track.
