WALK TALL CHILDREN’S ESSENCE
ACTION Boosts confidence encouraging children to be proud of who they are and knowing their own beauty and self worth. Gives a positive view of self. Assists children to have confidence in themselves and a positive ' I can do it' attitude.
This essence will bring needed confidence to your child. There are many children in our world who are sensitive in nature and find it difficult when around children who are controlling, teasing and bullying. They tend to shrink into the background rather than stand up for themselves. This essence will assist those who are shy and are having difficulty being confident in challenging situations.
SUGGESTIONS Visualisation - before bed, visualise themselves as looking confident, smiling, happy and conformable with who they are. Talk about their good points and what they might need to help them to look good and feel good.
Spirituality - tell the story of your child and their birth, his/her many talents and gifts that are growing within . Talk about their gifts i.e. the wonderful things that can be made with their hands. Help them to realise that the world is full of people who have grown their gifts so that they can be used to help others.
Activities -Shy children often benefit from drama and speech therapy. Also creative movement or competitions where they have to interact with different types of children. Tae Kwon Do, Tai Chi and other martial arts are also helpful for building confidence.
Belonging - where does your child belong, tell the story of their place in the family, the community and the world and bring a sense of belonging to them.
Love - impress upon children that the world that they live in is a changing world and that they too can and will have to change and grow. Always there is One who creates this world with love and they are part of that world of love. Use the words 'I love you' frequently to them.
