Description
Positive mantras can be incredibly beneficial for anxious children in a few ways. Firstly, repeating positive affirmations can help shift a child’s focus from negative thoughts to positive ones, which can promote a sense of calm and reduce anxiety. Additionally, mantras can help children develop a more positive self-image and self-esteem. This practice can also provide children with a tool to manage their emotions and build resilience when facing stressful situations. Regular use of positive mantras can ultimately contribute to a more optimistic and confident mindset in children.
