How to help our children handle stress and anxiety: Stress and anxiety are a normal part of life. Some stress is healthy, it motivates us to learn, helps us to focus, and pushes us to explore outside of our comfort zone. When the stress that we experience becomes greater than our ability to handle that stress or greater than the resources that we have to address our stressors, that is when we are at risk for toxic stress, burnout, and anxiety. Join this discussion to learn to recognize the warning signs and some things that we can do learn how to handle stress and anxiety.
- What is stress?
- What is anxiety?
- Is stress ever a good thing?
- Identifying the warning signs
- Skills to navigate stress and anxiety
