How to Quiet Your Kid's Anxious and Busy Brain

Shame is powerful. And if shame is present with our kids, parents need to jump into action and heed the alarm. Why? Because when parents develop the ability to de-shame their house and de-shame dynamics in their kid, it allows them to intervene differently and actually start to make progress quickly. This week on the podcast, Dr. Becky teaches all parents a very important lesson: how to become shame detectors with their kids. Get the Good Inside App by Dr. Becky: https://bit.ly/3XAPSlqFor more on the Deeply Feeling Kids Workshop visit https://bit.ly/4ege3KM Follow Dr. Becky on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drbeckyatgoodinsideSign up for our weekly email, Good Insider: https://www.goodinside.com/newsletterOrder Dr. Becky's book, Good Inside: A Guide to Becoming the Parent You Want to Be, at goodinside.com/book or wherever you order your books.For a full transcript of the episode, go to goodinside.com/podcastTo listen to Dr. Becky's TED Talk on repair visit https://www.ted.com/talks/becky_kennedy_the_single_most_important_parenting_strategyToday’s episode is brought to you by Airbnb: Let's be honest, parenting is expensive, especially around the holidays.

When your kid comes home from school and declares "I'm the worst at math" or "everyone is better at gymnastics than me", you might think that you can teach them to believe in themselves with some words of encouragement.
