Teach your kids to manage their emotions and process feelings
We love our kids, we want to protect them, keep them safe and educate them so that they grow up to be healthy happy and well-rounded adults. They need not only love, boundaries and nurturing but also to be taught the tools to cope with all that life and the modern world throws at them. These tools come in the form of Meditation and are more important now than ever.
Like adult’s children need to learn how to cope with all that comes up in life. Without coping strategies, they may end up suffering from anxiety which can lead to issues with mental or physical health. They may develop unhealthy and sometimes dangerous ways to cope – drugs, alcohol, self-harm, eating disorders.
Meditation will equip your kids with some great tools that will support them in navigating impending struggles. It will teach them to manage their emotions, process feelings and what is happening around them as well as changes in their bodies. Meditation will teach them to feel their feelings and understand they are only feelings and will pass. It will help them to notice their thoughts and to understand that they are not their thoughts and that they have the power to change them. Meditation will give them methods to calm their minds and bodies down when they get anxious, or thoughts become too much or too negative.
