REAL RESILIENCE PART 1

What is Resilience?

Resilience has been the buzzword in raising children for the past 20 years or more. And it seems that no matter how much we talk about it, we STILL struggle with raising our children with resilience. In fact, according to latest research findings, our children’s resilience is lower than it has ever been (since we began measuring it).

This brief intro to resilience is designed to help you recognise exactly what resilience is, unpack some of the mistakes we make as parents that ruin resilience, and give us a sense of what a resilient child could look like if we could teach and practice the habits of resilience that work best.

Join Dr Justin Coulson, author of the best-selling book, 9 Ways to a Resilient Child, as he explores what resilience is and why it matters so much for our children in this 25-minute brief webinar recording for parents, teachers, and caregivers.

How to Build Resilience

There are so many myths and misunderstandings about how to build resilience. Parents have the best of intentions, yet some of their resilience-building ideas backfire – often without us even knowing.

In this 60 minute webinar, Dr Justin Coulson will unpack why “Toughen Up Princess” is unhelpful, why competition can ruin resilience, even for winners, and why praise may be the worst thing we can do to help a struggling child bounce back from hard times. Plus, he’ll talk through cutting-edge, evidence-based strategies to help every parent raise resilience in their families so their children can stand tall in the face of challenge and trial. Based on his bestselling book, 9 Ways to a Resilient Child, these ideas will change the way you raise your children, and positively impact their resilience for a lifetime.
