Parenting Anxious Kids Online Course
Anxiety is debilitating, and will reoccur in adulthood if left unmanaged in childhood. Fortunately, there is so much parents and teachers can do to assist kids when they are anxious.
Parenting Anxious Kids Online Course is designed for the parents and teachers of primary school aged children and teenagers who experience anxiety. Held over six sessions (each running for 30-40 minutes) and featuring leading authorities from around the world, the course offers a range of tools to help manage and respond to anxiety, both in the moment and over the long term. Designed by author and award-winning parenting speaker Michael Grose and wellbeing expert Dr Jodi Richardson, the course also provides information on what anxiety is and how it functions in the brain and the body. Included in the course are mindfulness and breathing techniques, as well as strategies on nutrition, exercise, goal-setting, awareness, lifestyle changes, screen time and more.
The course has been designed to be completed at any pace and you can revisit it as many times as needed.
Up until 30 November 2019, you can take advantage of $60 off the cost of the course.
