Six Steps to an Emotionally Intelligent Teenager by James Windell Pdf

Practical parenting ideas for kids from ages 13 to 19 Helping teenagers navigate the rocky years between childhood and adulthood has always been a parenting challenge--a challenge that has only grown more difficult in today's fast-paced society. Noted parenting author and psychologist James Windell knows teens. He interacts with them every day. In this book, he offers exercises and practical ideas on how parents can raise a well-adjusted teenager with a solid chance for a successful life. Unlike so many books on parenting and teens that focus on discipline, this book emphasizes the importance of goal-setting, communication, and the development of social skills during the teen years. It reveals how to develop teens' emotional intelligence by demonstrating to them how they can handle their own emotions and respond constructively to the emotions of others. James Windell, MA (Detroit, MI), is a juvenile court psychologist. He is the author of "Children Who Say No When You Want Them to Say Yes" and "Eight Weeks to a Well-Behaved Child." Windell has appeared on CNN and Donahue, and his work has appeared in many national newspapers and magazines, including Jane Brody's column in the New York Times.

The Development of Emotional Intelligence by Nadja Reissland Pdf

How do children learn about the expression and meaning of emotions – both happy and sad? This book answers questions regarding the foundation of emotional intelligence, and examines how children become emotionally literate as they are socialised into their family environment from birth to 2 years of age. These early stages are vitally important in teaching children to understand themselves and others, as well as how to relate to people, and how to adapt to and cope with their immediate surroundings. In order to examine the development of emotional intelligence, the author presents an overview of the literature on the subject and in the second part of the book presents a case study in which the concepts introduced in the first part of the book are revisited. Based on daily tape-recorded ‘conversations’ between a baby and her father, the data demonstrate how, over a two-year period, the child learns to express and understand emotions within social interactions. This capacity to reason with emotions is examined through four areas: perceiving emotion, integrating emotion, understanding emotion and managing emotion. The Development of Emotional Intelligence adds a new perspective to the theoretical debate on emotions and how they develop. It will be of great interest to psychologists and any professionals dealing with families. It will also be helpful reading for parents.

Developing Emotional Intelligence by Israelin Shockness Pdf

Developing Emotional Intelligence - 30 Ways for Older Teens and Young Adults to Develop Their Caring Capabilities discusses important ways older teens and young adults can demonstrate that they are developing into caring adults who will help to foster good relations and peace, not only in their local and national communities, but with people from other parts of the world. Regardless of racial/ethnic, religious, sexual, or political differences, or socioeconomic circumstances, there are basic human qualities that must be respected if we are to be considered part of the human species. Some of the important subjects dealt with include stress, emotions and stress management; bullying, crime and self-harm; parent/child and step-parenting relationships, and conflict management. This book also shows how developing caring capabilities comes about through embracing empathy and living out education of the heart, dispositions that can help quell a raging mind, and foster love and forgiveness.

Shame and Anger by Brock Hansen Pdf

Our powerful reactions to receiving criticism are linked to the innate emotions of shame and anger. Evolved for survival in primitive circumstances, these sometimes overwhelming reactions do not always serve us well in civilized situations. Extreme reactions to real or perceived criticism can lead to serious psychological illnesses such as depression, addiction and eating disorders. This book gives the reader an understanding of the evolutionary function of shame and anger and the destructive ways in which they can manifest themselves in criticism situations. To help with this problem, the author describes techniques as old as yoga and as new as neurofeedback for quieting powerful emotions and becoming more confident in the face of criticism. These techniques can be used by adults and taught to children to help avoid many of the painful and destructive emotional experiences that shape our self-image and often set the stage for depression and other emotional disorders.
