Many parents say “I just want my child to be happy.”
In this book, Usha Chudasama guides and empowers parents and their children – aged five to eleven years old – to shift negative perceptions and build a strong positive mindset. Parenting is a science. This book lays the foundation to build resilience for life’s future challenges. Uniquely, blending the up-to-date theory of positive psychology, neuroscience and holistic practices, this jargon-free book takes you step-by-step through: scripted, fun and practical activities; powerful techniques and strategies; to create the ideal setting for raising a happy and confident child.
In this book you will learn how to:
- understand the dynamics of family life today and how to manage stress;
- become aware of how your behaviour and experiences influence how you parent your child; and
- use a range of techniques to change your child’s mindset for self-confidence and happiness.
