As parents, all we want is for our kids to be happy and healthy. To feel understood and to also understand themselves; their thoughts, feelings, and even their own behaviour. So when your child is struggling at school, with friends (or maybe struggling to make friends), with regulating their emotions and behaviours or perhaps with anxiety and even depression, it is heart breaking as a parent. It can leave you feeling lost, stressed, guilty and maybe even shame. In these situations, it's not just the child that needs support and tools - it's the parents, teachers and family as well. Children with mental health challenges is at an all time high...with 5 kids per average classroom struggling with their mental health. That's 1 in 6 kids. And these numbers are on the rise and something needs to be done. Laura Earnshaw is the Founder and CEO of myHappymind. Her programme is designed for Parents/Families and Schools and equips kids with tools to build resilience, understand their brain functions and manage their emotions and behaviours. Laura believes prevention is key to helping our children and her programme does exactly. myHappyMind is backed by the NHS and is currently in 1500 schools across the UK. In today's episode, Laura and Jennie dive into the realities of the Mental Health crisis facing our kids today, as well as what to look out for in your own kids (indicating factors) and how we can begin to start providing our kids with solutions and also preventive tools and measures. Mental Health is nothing to be embarrassed or ashamed about. We openly talk about physical health without fear of stigma or judgement; we need to apply the same to our Mental Health and well being...especially for our kids. Their futures depend on it.
