Ep. 9 Big Feelings, Strong Brains: Emotional Regulation with Dr. Thao
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This month on Little Minds Big Talks, we’re diving into emotional regulation and how understanding our brains can actually make us happier.
Our fourth- and fifth-grade hosts interview Dr. Thao, a local child psychologist, to learn why we have big emotions and what’s happening in our brains when we feel overwhelmed, angry, nervous or sad.
Dr. Thao shares practical strategies kids (and adults!) can use in the moment to calm down, think clearly and build emotional intelligence at home and at school.
This episode reminds us that emotional regulation isn’t about stopping feelings it’s about learning what to do with them.
Take a deep breath and listen in as we continue our Happiness Project journey.
And remember, little hearts can make a big difference.
