Help Your Brain Learn Coping, Social Skills & Perspective Taking While You Calm Anxiety with Forgiveness

Help Your Brain Learn Coping, Social Skills & Perspective Taking While You Calm Anxiety with Forgiveness

Prep Your Student for Independence

Neuroscientist Emiliana Simon-Thomas recommends helping your teen learn a simple approach to forgiveness. It allows us to let go of the anxiety, anger, and hurt, but equally important, it triggers three other brain activities that strengthen us in other ways. 

Simon-Thomas’ work in breaking brain function and psychology down in this way can shed light on how different psychological experiences promote well-being in life and help us figure out how to foster the experiences and behaviors that are most nurturing to well-being.
