    A simple, fail-proof road map for parents raising even the most challenging children—including those with ADHD, autism, sensory processing challenges, or big emotions—from the founder of the life-changing Calm the Chaos methodology and the popular parenting blog Lemon Lime Adventures.

    Strong-willed, spirited, explosive, defiant and highly sensitive are just a few of the most common labels for children with challenging behavior or emotional regulation difficulties. Whether your child has been diagnosed with a behavioral condition, struggles with executive functioning, or is just harder than other children you’ve met, you are in luck. Parenting expert, Dayna Abraham is here to help.

    Calm the Chaos offers a clearly organized, trauma-informed, science-backed, and positive parenting approach for raising neurodivergent children, children with sensory needs, or those who don’t respond to traditional discipline methods. Dayna has created a road map to help parents find peace, build emotional connection, and meet kids where they are—especially when conventional parenting books, punishment-based discipline, or behavior charts have failed. There are five steps to calming the chaos—Getting to Safety, Restoring Trust and Energy, Finding Calm in the Moment, Getting Ahead of the Moment, and Defining Family Success. Each step employs a framework that is easy to remember, even when emotions run high: you ground yourself, you connect with your kid, you work with them to understand the catalyst and the issue at the heart, and then together you get curious about finding an empowered solution.

    Backed by science and tested by hundreds of thousands of families, Calm the Chaos is a revolutionary gentle parenting guide perfect for families navigating ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, anxiety in children, or emotional outbursts.
