Book Synopsis
Learn how to channel your emotional energy in healthy, safe ways in this accessible guide for children by the bestselling creators of How Do I Feel? 'As a parent educator I am always looking for tools and ideas that can help parents and kids with understanding and accepting big feelings. I absolutely adore this book and would recommend it to any parent looking to increase their child's and their own vocabulary around emotions and in turn resilience in the face of challenging times. This is one of the biggest gifts we can give to our kids, and this book is a fantastic way to give kids resources and ideas for managing their feelings. It just might even help us as adults too!' -- GENEVIEVE MUIR, Connected ParentingAbout the Author
Rebekah Lipp is an author, entrepreneur and mental health advocate residing in New Zealand. She co-wrote Finding Gratitude (Quarto, 2019). Her personal journey with anxiety, depression and borderline personality disorder inspired Wildling Books, alongside a passion to bring awareness to children's mental health, emotional well-being and anxiety. After experiencing two years of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) following a period of crisis in her early twenties, she felt there was a real gap in what professionals knew and what parents and teachers needed to know regarding emotional regulation. She believes that we can empower children with skills, help children connect with their emotions, and teach them ways to regulate them.
With a gentle parenting approach, Rebekah feels that all children have genius within them and if we act out of a place of compassion, kindness and love, we will see our children thrive.
