Ep. 46 - DR ROSEANN CAPANNA-HODGE - Managing Anxiety & Mental Health in Children

I loved every second of recording this incredibly powerful and eye-opening episode with award-winning children’s mental health expert, Dr Roseann Capanna-Hodge.   If your child is struggling with their mental health and you as a parent aren’t sure of the best way to support them, this episode will hold SO much power for you.   In this episode we covered: Why children are experiencing so much more anxiety these days What the difference is between stress and anxiety How to manage anxiety in children How lifestyle and wellbeing impact our kids’ mental health Understanding the gut and gene mutations when it comes to this topic How screen-time and devices play a role and how to realistically manage it The number one thing we can do to ensure we are protecting our children’s mental health (this one will shock you!)   It was a total joy to speak to Dr Roseann about this very important topic (she also brought so much of that warm Italian-American humour and fun to the show!) and I know any parent or caregiver will benefit from the content as profoundly as I did.   Perhaps this isn't for you but you have a friend whose child is suffering. Please share this with them.   These are not easy times for our children to live in, but we, as parents, can step up in many different ways to help them through it.   So much of my coaching work focuses on going back through inner child to uncover limiting beliefs unconsciously carried through our lives. If we, as parents, can be more conscious of our children's needs, I'll hopefully be out of a job by the time our kids are grown up! In a weird way, that's the dream!   You can find Dr Roseann: Dr Roseann’s website Dr Roseann’s Instagram Dr Roseann’s book, It’s Going to be OK, was out May 11th Dr Roseann’s Children’s Health Summit     For private wellness, mindset and life coaching, please visit my website www.laurenvakninecoaching.com   This season of Reconditioned is kindly sponsored by Block Blue Light UK, the UK’s leading company for anti-blue light products, to fix sleep issues, eliminate eye strain and improve health.
