Look for the strengths in children, not the weaknesses - Fiona Forman, author and former teacher

On today's podcast I chat with Fiona Forman, former teacher and now trainer and the author of books about well-being and positive psychology for children. After nearly 30 years of teaching young children and knowing that their anxiety levels are increasing each year (one third of students), Fiona discovered Positive Psychology, and went about applying this in her classroom and immediately saw the huge difference it made. She chats about her books, the importance of recognising the strengths in everyone, identifying pockets of positivity, the 3 to 1 positivity ratio and recognising three good events each day. We also chatted about the summer holidays, the importance of rest for children and spending precious time with them.
