Today we continue the exploration of the "Mission Control: A Big Feelings Adventure" series with author Nan Arkwright. In Part 2/3 we learn about emotional regulation and Nan introduces us to the characters in the book.
Nan defines emotional regulation as the ability to control one's emotions and manage reactions to feelings, emphasizing its importance for mental health. The discussion explores the challenges both children and adults face in managing emotions, including difficulties with disappointments, impulsivity, and stress reactions. The book provides practical examples of how parents can model emotional regulation, particularly in bedtime scenarios.
Join us for the final part of the series in the next episode, where we'll explore empowering children through problem-solving and Pro Social Skills.
Nan Arkwright is a pediatric occupational therapist with almost 30 years of experience and writer who supports families in regulating emotions and solving everyday problems that come up at home and school.
At age 72, Nan is launching her writing career with an explosion of children’s mental health books expected to be published in 2024. Already published is her best-selling, award-winning book, Mission: CONTROL! A Big Feelings Adventure!
