Nurturing Resilience: Self-Care Tips for Kids During the Pandemic

Moving forward, one of the most important things that I've observed during this time is us talking about our feelings and the importance of our emotional health and self-care, and those are not things that were top of mind or thought to be as important as they are before.
How do you keep kids emotionally balanced during a global crisis? In this episode of 'Healthy Mind Matters', host Maria Shilaos dives into this pressing question with the help of two seasoned experts from Intermountain Healthcare. Dr. Travis Mickelson, Associate Medical Director for Mental Health Integration, and Dr. Anne Pendo, Senior Medical Director of Experience of Caring, share their wisdom on fostering resilience in children amidst the chaos of the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Mickelson and Dr.
Pendo emphasize the importance of maintaining a structured routine for kids, providing them with age-appropriate information, and shielding them from the constant barrage of distressing news. They discuss how pediatricians can be invaluable allies in ensuring children's well-being during these challenging times. The conversation also touches on some unexpected silver linings from the pandemic, like increased family bonding and new ways to stay connected.
Additionally, the episode introduces listeners to the emotional health relief hotline, a crucial resource for families needing extra support. Whether you're a parent, caregiver, or simply someone interested in mental health, this episode offers practical advice and comforting insights to help navigate these unprecedented times. Tune in to learn how you can prioritize self-care for the little ones in your life.
