Self-Regulation. How to Help a Child (and Yourself) cope with Stress

There are no bad children. As psychologist and world-renowned scientist Stuart Shanker asserts, even the most outrageous, annoying, or concerning behavior has an explanation. This means the situation can be fixed. Shanker's research has shown that both children and adults' ability to lead a full and happy life—completing tasks, making friends, learning, and even loving—depends on the ability to self-regulate. This term has many interpretations, but in its original psychological context, it refers to our ability to cope with stress.

Numerous neurobiological studies of the brain have proven that self-regulation is a key factor in managing one's psycho-emotional state in stressful situations. 

The book will show you from what perspective to view children's behavior, how to respond to their needs, and teach yourself to control. It is not about how to train a child to "behave well." It is about how to radically change their mindset, improve concentration, attention, the ability to make friends, experience empathy, as well as develop higher values and qualities that are vital for the present and future well-being of your child.
