Brain Building in Action
In this video, Bella is being encouraged to
keep going even when it is tough.
Tiny moments of challenge and quick
recognition from the earliest age starts to
build resilience.
With practice, the child becomes better and
better at managing the sometimes
unpleasant feeling of challenge.
They get better at working through the
unpleasant feeling rather than impulsively
running from it, fighting it or trying to quickly
replace it with a more comforting feeling.
With experience, they gain the flexibility to
know that it will lead to the good feeling of
success in the end.
