So it's just a really good way of putting a few things in place, changing a couple things that you do, and it can make a world of difference for your kids.
When children face trauma, it can feel like their world is falling apart. In this heartfelt episode of 'Mindful Recovery', Robert Cox chats with Jackie Flynn, a brilliant child therapist from Florida.

Jackie offers practical advice on spotting signs of trauma, opening up conversations with kids, and creating safe spaces for them to express their feelings. Plus, she shares details about her upcoming free training sessions aimed at helping children cope with these challenges. It's an enlightening discussion that underscores the importance of mindfulness in boosting kids' academic performance and self-esteem while aiding their emotional recovery.
