Does your child get upset when their work isn’t perfect? Are they too hard on themselves when they don’t live up to their own expectations? Captain Perfection and The Secret of Self-Compassion is an excellent guide for children to help them boost self esteem and build confidence.
Self-compassion is ‘the art of being kind to yourself’ and is proven to help manage perfectionism, channelling it in healthier ways. This self-help book inspires children to understand their perfectionism before encouraging them to build their very own ‘self-compassion superpower’, a valuable resource when unhealthy perfectionism hits.
Self-compassion can help high-achieving children:
- Recognize perfectionism when it strikes
- stay calm and focused when they get frustrated
- Treat themselves with kindness so they can realize their potential.
Captain Perfection & the Secret of Self-Compassion by Julian Reeve is a new book offering healthy coping techniques to young perfectionists and their parents.
