Overview
What do you do when big emotions take over your whole body?
For kids trying to understand and come to terms with the world, big concepts like our emotions - and the power they seem to have over us - can be overwhelming.
Explaining the science of our nervous system takes the the confusion out of big feelings and huge emotional experiences, which makes it easier for kids to feel a sense of control over their emotions.
This is important book is the second in Mighty + Bright's highly anticipated "Emotions" series, and introduces the science of the nervous system and the concept of developing coping skills. It is featured in Month 5 of the "Kids Mental Health Skills at Home" program.
This book covers:
- The concept that bodies are built with cells, and that neurons are "communicator" cells;
- The role of the brain and body in determining what is "safe" and "unsafe";
- The idea that sometimes our brains make mistakes in their stress response;
- What to do when we find our bodies in a stress response;
- Coping strategies (and why they work), including "name it to tame it," taking deep breaths, imagining a safe place, physical activity, and more.
- Making a plan for how to use coping strategies.
