So... what is resilience and what's the big deal? Is this something to focus on with your child or does it develop naturally?
Recent research offers a road map to the neuroscience of resilience. Surprisingly, developing a way of dealing with life’s stressors is NOT rocket science. Instead, we’ve learned that it's the most ordinary of interactions that helps each child develop this potent life skill. In this episode, Dr. Stephanie Goloway, author of Happily Ever Resilient: Using Fairytales to Nurture Children Through Adversity, explains how resilience is one of the amazing benefits of playing with your infant and toddler.
Here's the show notes for this episode. Download Dr. Goloway's resources on learning more about the research on resilience, activities you can do with your child and resources on toxic stress, trauma, ACES and more. I think you'll find it very valuable!
