Meditation: The Secret to Resilient and Emotionally Intelligent Kids with Emily Fletcher

In a world where stress is a potential constant giving kids the tools to feel and process their emotions is about equipping them with a cure for stress that they can use throughout life

This is an episode for anyone who wants to empower their children with the skills to access their own innate intelligence and consciously create a life they love

Key Takeaways

Ziva is empowering a whole generation of kids to feel their feelings
Having a third person there can make you feel safer and more prepared to open up about experiences
Many of us are not trained to feel and process our emotions because we don’t feel safe enough
Because as parents we haven’t been given the tools to feel our own feelings when our child is in pain or feels sadness or fear it’s like your feelings magnified
Pain creates pain and in order to fix it we inadvertently repress and diminish the feelings of our children
There are big feelings when we are trying to accomplish big things
Uncertainty is one of the hardest things for humans, especially children, to handle both psychologically and emotionally
There’s a cure for stress and it is meditation
We have a responsibility to equip our children to move through the long-term impact of the pandemic with as much grace and elegance as possible because they have sacrificed a lot for us
Manifesting is the art of consciously creating the life you love
If you stay in a place of gratitude you are programming your brain to look for more of it
If you are in a state of fight or flight then there isn’t any room for your dreams
We always find evidence for what we believe so why not chose to believe you are lucky

Best Moments

‘Ziva empowers an entire generation to feel their feelings and move through to a new now’

‘You are moving beyond the realm of thinking and into the realm of being’

‘When your body is guiding and healing itself and going on its own circadian rhythms you are tapping into your own innate intelligence, your body’s own human capacity’
