Developing family togetherness and resilience during difficult times
Research and experience indicate 6 key areas of concern Hong Kong parents have regarding their children:
-
Not speaking or participating enough
-
Speaking or participating too much without regard for others
-
Lacking confidence
-
Lacking concentration, focus, and self-control
-
Feeling hijacked by their emotions
-
Not performing to their potential
As we navigate our way through the unprecedented challenges of Covid, regular concerns are exacerbated and can make family life difficult. Through the highly practical MindUP™ programme, we’ll share with you how understanding the brain and applying simple daily habits can transform socio-developmental behaviours and reduce stress for all family members.
