LEARNING HOW TO MANAGE STRESS AND ANXIETY IN YOUR CHILD
Dr. Lisa Dissinger
1.) Manage your own anxiety as a parent
2.) Teach your child "emotional agility" (refer to handout)
3.) Reward your child's ability to face their fears and to take on
challenges
4.) Give your child a specific, limited time to talk about their worries
5.) Create a "tool box" for your child that helps to relax them
6.) Identify what activity gets your child in a "flow" state
7.) Develop family communication and problem solving skills
8.) "Let go" and empower your child over time to be independent
9.) Use positive mantras when parenting; Read "I Think, I Am" to your
daughter by Manuela Schwarz (this book teaches kids the power of positive
affirmations)
