Growing Emotional Skills

Emotions at full volume, and what to do with them.

32 chapters on the feeling underneath the behaviour: the runway before a meltdown, naming what is happening without lecturing, repair after a hard hour, and building the pause in peacetime so it is there when it is needed.

Connection before correction, taught as a method rather than a mood.

Two editions of every book are included: an A4 edition that prints beautifully at home, and a phone edition sized for reading in the dark next to a finally sleeping child.

Every factual claim in the book carries a footnote to a published study you can check.
