Workshop Description:

A child’s emotions can be large, loud, and messy! And yet, emotion is now confirmed to be at the core of development and well-being. What are the implications for raising children? How can we ensure healthy hearts and what does heart hygiene look like? Should we be discouraging negative emotions and should we be encouraging our children to calm down? What role does the mind play in matters of the heart? Dr. Neufeld will address these questions and more, bringing some needed clarity to the plethora of confusing information that is bombarding parents today.
