We are seeing a generation of children and teens with excessively
high levels of stress, and, as a result, an explosion of health
problems in young people today. But few parents recognise the
'hidden stressors' that their children are struggling with. This
book, previously published as Self-Reg, will give you the tools to
help you recognise stress and understand your child's behaviour,
and teach your stressed, emotional child to identify their 'big'
emotions and get back on an even keel by themselves. Stress can
affect your child in many ways - whether it's exam pressure,
pressure exerted by friends online or in the playground, or related
to health, with lack of sleep and anxiety at home contributing.
Help Your Child Deal With Stress - and Thrive is a ground-breaking
parenting book, in which Dr Stuart Shanker argues that by teaching
children the art of self-regulation, it can transform their
behaviour and help them to identify, talk about and manage their
emotions. This leads to a harmonious home, and children who feel
nurtured and supported. Mastering the art of self-regulation can
help children learn to deal with experiences, overcome frustration,
pay better attention, engage better with others and enhance their
learning capabilities. In turn, children will develop the
confidence, along with the skills and emotional strength needed to
navigate the pressures and stresses of the modern world.
Underpinned by science, Dr Shanker's techniques have had a
remarkable effect on children and parents alike, and hundreds of
thousands of children who have gone through the programme in Canada
have shown significant improvement in literacy, numeracy and
behaviour. 'In this important and timely book, Stuart Shanker
encourages us to see our children in a whole new light and gives us
the tools we need to help nurture our young in order that they can
better manage stress, build resiliency and improve their emotional
health. Today's pupils are under serious pressure to perform; by
helping children recognize, identify and talk about their emotions,
we can help them find balance and ultimately realise their true
potential.' - Sir Anthony Seldon, Vice-Chancellor of the University
of Buckingham, co-founder of Action for Happiness and best-selling
