Have you ever considered the silent battles our children fight in their minds every day? Aligned with the recent Children's Mental Health Awareness Week, this podcast delves into children's mental health and provides help and guidance including recognising the signs, how to support and advice for parents and family members. Featuring Sally Tribe and Dr Omar Kowlessar, Vita's mental health experts.
During this eye-opening episode, we unravel practical approaches to help parents and caregivers nurture resilience in our young ones. The art of maintaining open communication channels, the value of shared activities, and the necessity of staying deeply involved in your child's life, regardless of their age, are explored. We recognize the adversity faced by today's youth—loneliness, a dip in motivation, and the pandemic's exacerbation of these issues—while also celebrating their incredible adaptability and strength. Join us as we not only discuss the challenges but also highlight the importance of early recognition of mental health struggles, emphasizing the theme of growth for Children's Mental Health Awareness Week. Don't miss this heartfelt journey into understanding and supporting the mental health of the children in our lives.
