Mental health tops the list of concerns for today’s kids (and their parents). Keeping up with social trends is exhausting, and real-life friendships can feel risky and hard. Kids also have to contend with constant input from the digital world, which is all too often detrimental to their wellbeing. In this edition for young readers, bestselling author Jennie Allen draws on the insights, truth, and experiences from her New York Times bestsellers Get Out of Your Head and Find Your People to help kids:
- identify the physical and mental inputs they’re receiving and learn to choose good ones
- deal with anxiety
- cultivate positive and affirming self-talk
- capture and change negative thoughts before they begin to spiral
- form authentic and life-giving connections with others
Kids don’t have to be at the mercy of toxic input and negative thoughts—they have the power to choose what to think and believe. In You Are Not Alone, they’ll discover exactly how to change their thought patterns, control what they take in, and form healthy habits and relationships that will lead them to a life of peace, joy, and love.
* This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF that contains exercises, prompts, and the Power Tools from the book.
