Crafting an Emotional Toolbox: Tools for Resilience with Dr. Christopher Fasano

All humans should have their own emotional toolbox and we should she be teaching children from a young age how to fill this toolbox up with all of the tools they will need to handle life's struggles.
Imagine if handling emotional pain was as straightforward as treating a physical cut. In this episode of 'The Better Mental Health Show', Dr. Christopher Fasano, a developmental neuroscientist, dives into the concept of an 'emotional toolbox'. He believes that just like a first aid kit for physical injuries, everyone should have a set of tools to manage emotional challenges. Dr. Fasano breaks down the essential components of this toolbox: nurturing relationships, a sense of control, creativity, and mental flexibility.
He emphasizes the importance of teaching children these skills early on, setting them up for a resilient future. With a decline in social interactions in today's digital age, Fasano highlights how crucial it is to foster social-emotional learning in childhood. This episode is packed with practical advice for anyone eager to boost their mental resilience and flexibility.
Whether you're a parent, educator, or just someone looking to improve your mental health, this episode offers valuable insights that can help you and your loved ones thrive.
