CALM AND CONNECTED - EPISODE 106
I’m so excited to welcome Dr Lynne Kenney on to the Calm & Connected Podcast this week. We chat about all things executive functioning and how sessions differ with children in comparison to teenagers. We kept the conversation on the lighter treatment side rather than all the science-lingo heavy side. I hope you enjoy it!!
The topics we cover in this episode are;
What actually is executive functioning?
How young you can start teaching children executive function skills
How slowing down for kids can make them achieve and learn more
Different types of mindfulness practices
How mantras can help
How little questions can have a big impact
How things differ from children to teenagers
Teenagers are human too - they want love, affection and to feel masterful
The importance of thinking about what other people need
