Re-release: How to raise emotionally healthy children with Dr. Anne Lane

Welcome to this week’s episode of the Motherkind podcast. I am so happy you are here. Thank you for pressing play and listening. As you may now by now, In August I take a break to re-charge and reconnect with my family. This month I release our most popular episodes over the past six months. In honour of children’s mental health week back in February, I spoke with Dr. Anne Lane about raising emotionally healthy children. This is an incredible episode and I can see why it is one of our top 3 most downloaded. This is one of those episodes that I wish that every single parent could listen to. I truly believe if every parent could listen to this, we would make things radically different for ourselves and our children. Anne is a clinical psychologist working with children, teens and adults. She has a new book out called Nurture your child’s emotional intelligence: Five steps to help your children cope with big emotions and build resilience. If that isn’t the most important thing in the world, then I don’t know what is. What I learned most from this episode is that life is incredibly messy and what we need to do is help ourselves and our children be ok with that. Isn’t that what emotional health really is all about? Anne is open, honest and fantastically breaks down questions that I know we all have on our minds. IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN ABOUT: Why emotions are contagious and what to do about that How to help both yourself and children put words to emotions How to communicate hard things with our children Why Anne thinks anxiety and depression are on the rise for our children and what we can do early on as parents I think you are going to love this one and want to share it. So please do. If there is someone in your life who you think can benefit from this wisdom.. Let’s get this incredible information to as many mothers as we can.
