SIMPLY EFT TAPPING!

How To Identify Emotions and Teach Self-regulation Skills to All Children.

Children are often taught that it is not OK to feel sad, hurt, frustrated, disappointed or angry.

When children don't learn ways to handle these emotions, they react badly or lash-out at others verbally or physically.

Children may act this way because they don't have the skills to plan or predict the future and, they feel that they have little or no control over the emotions around certain situations.

It is your job as an adult to teach children from the most sensitive to the more robust child how to identify and handle difficult situations.

Identifying the Emotion

We can teach children to tap on their fear, worry, anxiety, anger, the results of bullying, or hurts and sadness that affect their self-esteem to help them to become more resilient.

Children often find expressing emotions uncomfortable unless they are positive, so they don’t become practised in dealing with unpleasant emotions.

No emotions are “good or bad”….they walk side by side….they just are.

You can’t un-feel an emotion, so EFT Tapping! helps children to identify how they are feeling and let go of the negative emotions in a safe way.

ACTIVITY:

Name 3 "negative" emotions.
