Produktbeschreibung
Are you unknowingly passing your anxiety to your children? Have you ever wondered how your parents' anxiety may have influenced you? Discover the hidden ways anxiety is transmitted across generations. Uncover the critical times and stages when children are most vulnerable. Discover your innate mind power and explore deliberate strategies to break free from the cycle of anxiety. Feeding Anxiety to Your Kids uncovers the often-overlooked phenomenon of how parental anxiety is transmitted to children, profoundly shaping their emotional and psychological development. Drawing from extensive clinical experience with adolescents struggling with severe anxiety, panic attacks, and self-harming behaviors, this book reveals how parental anxiety can subtly but significantly influence children's well-being and affect family dynamics across generations.This publication offers a well-rounded understanding andmultifaceted nature of anxiety. By integrating cutting-edge research in evolutionary psychology, neurobiology, and psychodynamics with real-life examples from clinical practice, the book provides readers with deep insights into the origins of parental anxiety and its far-reaching consequences. It highlights critical life stages-pregnancy, early childhood, and adolescence-when children are particularly vulnerable to absorbing anxiety. The book examines how dysregulated behaviors like overprotection, hypervigilance, catastrophic thinking, emotional unavailability, and inconsistent parenting unintentionally perpetuate anxiety, while also exploring the broader intergenerational and multigenerational impacts.Feeding Anxiety to Your Kids offers a hopeful and proactive approach, emphasising that effective strategies and tools are available to break the cycle of anxiety. It serves as a call to deliberate action for parents, caregivers, therapists, and health professionals, providing practical strategies, actionable insights, and encouragement to nurture emotionally secure and resilient families. Whether you are a parent navigating personal challenges, a professional supporting family, or an individual seeking to understand anxiety's complexities, this book delivers a comprehensive blend of knowledge and optimism for fostering a healthier, brighter future for generations to come.
