EMOTION COACHING, STRENGTHENING CHILDREN’S RESILIENCE & MINDFUL AWARENESS.

It IS about understanding the latest childhood neuroscience research and strategies, connecting in to your own stress triggers and patterns and feeling empowered by this knowledge. Who is this course for: any parent wishing to reduce feelings of stress and frustration, increase understanding of children’s emotional development and increase their child’s emotional resilience. What will it cover: neuroscience of emotional resilience & childhood development, understanding your stress triggers in response to your child’s behaviour, parenting and relaxation techniques and strategies.
