The Power of Showing Up: How Parental Presence Shapes Who Our Kids Become and How Their Brains Get Wired Free Audiobook Download by Tina Payne Bryson,Daniel J. Siegel
"Showing up", according to Daniel J. Siegel's new book, is the most important and least understood parenting skill. It entails actively engaging in your child's life while she or he is growing up, without expectations of results. Siegel points out that parents who show up tend to raise children who are more empathic, more compassionate, and more fulfilled and contented than those raised by parents who do not.
Dr. Siegel provides a scientific explanation of the role that parental presence plays in shaping the development of children and how it affects their brains. The Power of Showing Up: How Parental Presence Shapes Who Our Kids Become and How Their Brains Get Wired is a timely book with a lot to offer parents who are looking for scientifically-backed advice on how to raise children from birth to adulthood.
Children do not only learn from books or teachers, but also from the adults around them. This is because children are sponges who soak up so much information about what's going on in their world. Parents have a huge impact on how their children behave and act by the way they show up in their lives. It's important to remember that kids are watching your behavior and they will tell themselves stories about you even if we don't want them to.
This powerful audiobook tackles the power of parenting and how our presence can shape the person our children become. The book offers new ideas on how to be present with your kids and shapes their brains in a positive way.
The Power of Showing Up: How Parental Presence Shapes Who Our Kids Become and How Their Brains Get Wired is a book written by Tina Payne Bryson which explores the topic of parenting. The author makes the argument that, during crucial periods of neurological development, parenting interactions have a significant influence on how our children learn to take in new information and also develop social skills. This book outlines practical strategies for raising healthy, happy children with well-developed cognitive and social skills.
"Our children grow up in a society that tells them they are not worthy, they are not good enough, they are not smart enough," says Dr. Siegel. "Somehow we've convinced our children that they're never going to be able to make it on their own." That's why parental presence is so important. The power of showing up means being present and welcoming your child when they come home from school, listening with your full attention and not just when you have something else planned for yourself, actively participating in the topics being discussed and not just being an observer or silent watcher.
