142: Find the Key to Your Child's Happiness and Future Success with Alison Elsberry

Early childhood development is a time of both immense opportunity and great vulnerability. Many children are unable to reach their full potential due to poor environmental conditions. Their body awareness is fundamental to their daily lives and is usually prioritized over social-emotional development, emotional intelligence, mindfulness, and other skills. Understanding how to foster this body awareness is critical to your child's general health and way of life. This awareness can result in children that have a clear, loving connection to their body and knowing, loving, and trusting themselves!
