A focus on mindfulness
“The practice of mindfulness actually increases the connectivity between the amygdala and several regions of the brain responsible for successful emotional regulation, the ability to think constructively and cope with feelings. When these connections are made, the qualities of kindness, patience, compassion, impulse control and attention spans are enhanced. This also includes the ability to recognize and soothe oneself from strong feelings. The result is more resilient children, less likely to feel overwhelmed by their feelings.” (full article)
