In today’s fast-paced world, children are often bombarded with various stressors that can affect their mental and emotional well-being. As parents, it can be challenging to know how to best support our children in navigating these challenges. This is where mindful coaching for children can make a significant difference.
Mindful coaching integrates mindfulness techniques with coaching principles to help children and their families build awareness, emotional regulation, and effective communication skills. Rooted in the practice of mindfulness—being fully present and non-judgmentally aware—this approach encourages children to better understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, and equips them with tools to respond thoughtfully rather than react impulsively.
Dr Barbara integrates mindfulness and coaching to help her clients emotionally regulate and enhance their social and emotional learning. Her clients learn mindfulness to slow down, release stress, decide where they place their attention. clients of all ages then use these skills to recognize, manage and articulate their feelings like frustration, anger, or anxiety. Mindfulness practices also improve focus and attention, helping her clients maintain clarity about what they need to do.
Dr Barbara's clients develop a deep understanding of themselves, who they are and how their thoughts and emotions influence good decision making and actions. Through these mindful coaching sessions, clients learn practical strategies for overcoming challenges, improving communication and working towards goals. Mindful coaching encourages empathetic communication, helping family members listen actively and support one another.
Dr Barbara works with children and families to embed mindfulness practices at home, so that it becomes easier for all of the family to be mindful and to develop coping skills that last a lifetime.
If you or your family is looking to transform their home into a calm sanctuary with healthy communication and strong connections contact Dr Barbara to learn more.
