My Hidden Chimp: From the best-selling author of The Chimp Paradox

Description

My Hidden Chimp is an effective and powerful new educational book that offers parents, teachers and carers some ideas and thoughts on how to help children to develop healthy habits for life. The science behind the habits is discussed in a practical way with exercises and activities to help children think the habits through and start putting them into practice. The neuroscience of the mind is simplified for children to understand and then use to their advantage. By also explaining the developing 'chimp' brain in children, Professor Steve Peters shows us how 10 habits can help them to understand and manage their emotions and behaviour. These 10 good habits should and can be retained for life. This is an important and groundbreaking new book from the creator of the chimp management mind model.
