This challenging season may be the most stressful time to be a kid ever. They feel fear knowing what's going on around the world by watching the news on their phones, and they feel overwhelmed and anxious while aware that their parents have money stresses and might be health issues in the family.

In this special episode, we will learn from one of the world's leading authorities on mind-body healing, weight loss, and stress management – Dr. Brian Alman. He has coached and trained thousands of people and his simple and yet very effective techniques for self-care.

Key areas you will learn in this episode:

✔️ Why the number one treatment for stress is FOOD. Whether it's grown-up kids like us, medium-sized kids like teenagers, or small-sized kids in elementary school or younger — food is the number one "drug" to shut the mind up and quiet the emotions.

✔️ Learn techniques to BREATHE your way through anything. Dr. Alman teaches that no matter how overwhelmed you get and how bad it gets, close your eyes and focus on your breathing. For just a few moments, you see how this provides relief as people have been doing this for thousands of years.

✔️ Note the top 3 signals to check if your child is stressed. As a parent, it is your job to connect, ask questions and be open. Get familiarized by the triggers and reactions - either they get overwhelmed, withdrawing, or getting feisty in fighting and take action to help them cope with these big emotions.

✔️Find people and resources for help. Suppose you don't have another partner or a family member. In that case, there are wonderful people professionally, coaches, counselors, sometimes psychiatrists, sometimes psychologists, mentors, and teachers who will back you up and be part of the "tribe" to raise your child effectively.

✔️ Get kids to realize they have an inner critic. Make sure that you're not telling your daughters or sons bad things about their bodies. They soak up that negativity because they have their inner judge. compares themselves to everybody else, that worries what other people think of them, that tends to be judgmental and critical, and to learn how to give that a voice.
