Mantra 15 of 16
The Rosa Banks Mantras
See the need beneath the behaviour
Behaviour is often communication.
Why it mattersInstead of asking, “How do I stop this behaviour?”, try asking, “What might this behaviour be telling me?”
Many behaviours are expressions of anxiety, sensory overload, uncertainty, fatigue or frustration rather than deliberate defiance.
The takeaway
Curiosity leads to better solutions than judgement. When we understand the need, the behaviour often begins to change naturally.
