The Teens Self-Regulation Workbook: Empowering Teenagers to Understand, Handle and Master Their Emotions With Success Through CBT Exercises and Coping Strategies (Life Skills Mastery Book 4)

Book Synopsis: Vital Strategies Plus CBT Worksheets to Help Teens Manage Their Emotions and Overcome Teen Stressors. If you are a parent, then you know that teens these days have it far harder than you did. Statistics indicate that Americans aged 15 to 29 are the most stressed in the nation. Moreover, anxiety and depression affect around 70% of teens. Teens also struggle with specific skills such as anger management, starting and maintaining a conversation, and resolving conflicts peacefully. Some may have difficulties making social connections or meeting academic goals. “It’s always been that way,” you may say. Indeed, the brain doesn’t fully mature until you reach your mid-20s, which makes it harder to control impulses. This has always been the case. What has changed, however, is the barrage of online misinformation and pressure teens now face from social media and online use. Their idols are influencers, many of whom espouse shallow values and unrealistic expectations. Some have little interest in anything other than having “the perfect body,” designer clothes and jewelry, or fancy cars. Yet influencers represent a tiny minority of teens. Those wishing to succeed have a dramatically higher chance of doing so if they hone key emotional regulation and emotional intelligence skills—including expressing oneself assertively, time management, and conflict resolution. As a parent, you want to encourage your kids to have goals, without overwhelming them. You want to lend them a helping hand, but don’t know where to start.
