Description

A clear, meaningful guide to adapting your parenting approach and your relationship with your children.

Naomi Holdt is a parent, just like you. She's one who messes up and gets it wrong; one who has learnt to smile at her faults because no matter how many textbooks we read, we all find ourselves face-planted in the sand sometimes. Naomi sees through all this to understand the immense joy that comes with the unpredictable, roller-coaster ride of raising children, but it's nice to have a little support and guidance along the way!

Bounce is loaded with tons of practical, bite-sized advice, thought-provoking exercises and proven techniques to help you raise happy, healthy and resilient kids. Naomi explores issues that impact us all, such as: understanding what resilience is, big emotions, problem solving, helping highly sensitive children, allowing your children to mess up, anxiety and depression, divorce, and more.

With real-deal, true-life stories from Naomi's own home, and from her psychotherapy practice, read on to move from 'What the heck do I do now?' to 'I've got this!' (even if your voice trembles slightly as you declare it).
