13 Things Mentally Healthy Parents Don’t Do: Raising Self-Assured Children and Training their Brains for a Life of Happiness, Meaning & Success
Everyone needs mental strength to reach their greatest potential, and psychotherapist Amy Morin is here with a simple approach to help bolster mental muscle and help all become their best selves. Morin reveals what not to do – the types of unhealthy thoughts, behaviors, and feelings that hold adults back from raising mentally strong children. When teens have the skills they need to deal with life’s challenges, they flourish socially, emotionally, behaviorally and academically. Morin demonstrates through easy-to-follow steps that with the appropriate support, encouragement and guidance children will develop into empowered, healthy, strong adults who achieve happiness and fulfillment. Master your mental strength with revolutionary new strategies that work for everyone from parents (of children of all ages from preschool to teenagers) to teachers to CEOs.
