I sat down with Kristina Freeman from Grow your Mind @growyourmind.life to talk all things mental health and wellbeing for children.  In this episode we are talking about about mental health and wellbeing in children. We're talking about why it is so important to educate and teach our children from a very young age to talk about their feelings and emotions. We are talking about how we can best do this and how our children can teach us a thing or two in return.  And you will find out what elephants, guard dogs and other animals have to do with it all. Kristina has a deep understanding and knowledge of how to talk to children about mental health and wellbeing. Kristina has also co-developed tools on how to teach children the right strategies to build resilience. I really hope that this conversation is inspiring you to talk to your children openly and honestly about those topics and to open up the conversation in your home even though it isn't always easy to do. Don't be scared of it, step into this space and remember that you are doing it to give your children the best possible way to deal with potential mental health and wellbeing issues that they might cross paths with in their life. Start teaching them from a very early age how to deal with their emotions, how to deal with their feelings and how to build resilience and practice tools to get out of challenging times. This is such an incredibly important conversation to have. We can all do our bit to raise our next generation to be able to talk about mental health and wellbeing the way we talk about physical wellbeing. Imagine a generation where it is normal to be vulnerable, honest and open about the struggles that most people go through at some point in their lives. I also hope that this episode inspires you to start showing vulnerability and openness. If we are confident to step into that space, our children will feel far more inclined to do so as well. I hope you enjoy listening to this episode.

#004_What  Elephants, Guard Dogs and other Animals have to do with Children's Mental Health_A Meaningful Conversation with Kristina Freeman

A passionate Acupuncturist, Kristina knew there was a need not being met. She was seeing younger patients in her clinic with anxiety. These patients had the knowledge to look after their physical bodies but seemed at a loss as to what they could do for their minds. Poor mental health is a serious issue, however mental health education does not have to be. In this episode, Business Coach, Alison Morgan speak with Kristina about her business, Grow your Mind. www.relauncher.com.au
