In Part Two of my  conversation, with Professor Jeremy Jamieson we explore the fascinating dynamics of stress and resilience, specifically emphasising the roles parents can play in helping their children grow up resilient and strong. We discuss the importance of fostering a positive relationship with stress and understanding the biological and psychological factors that play into this often misunderstood aspect of life.

What You'll Learn:
Understanding Stress: Discover how stress functions as a natural response and how it can be beneficial rather than detrimental.
Challenge vs. Threat Mindsets: Learn why perceiving stress as a challenge rather than a threat can completely alter the physiological response.
Parenting Techniques for Resilience: Get insights into how parents can prepare their children for life's challenges by encouraging them to tackle difficult situations head-on.

Key Takeaways:
Stress is Not the Enemy: Stress, when approached properly, can be a tool for growth and resilience rather than a harmful force. It’s about perception and management.
Parents as Guides, Not Rescuers: Instead of removing obstacles for your children, teach them to navigate these challenges. Encourage them to be proactive and resilient.
Develop a Toolbox for Stress Management: Different situations require different responses—having a flexible approach to managing stress is crucial.
The Role of Physiology in Stress: Understanding and managing physiological responses through activities such as regular exercise, sleep hygiene, and possibly cold immersion sessions can help in dealing with stress effectively.
Importance of a Healthy Lifestyle: Adequate sleep, nutrition, and limiting technology use can have profound impacts on mental health, influencing stress levels and resilience capacity.
