Understanding and developing the mind throughout life - the NEW audiobook from the creator of the chimp management mind model and author of the million copy selling The Chimp Paradox.

How can we help our children:

· become more resilient?
· get over mistakes?
· develop a positive outlook?

And, what can we do to become better role models?

Prof Steve Peters uses his Chimp Mind Management Model to help parents, teachers and carers understand the neuroscience behind unconscious beliefs and habits that may be silently guiding children's emotions, thinking and behaviours.

The Silent Guides explores ten positive habits and many related themes taken from the children's educational book My Hidden Chimp.

Prof Steve Peters helps challenge unhelpful behaviours such as:
· being overly self-critical
· fear of failure
· low self-esteem

Professor Steve Peters explains neuroscience in a straightforward and intuitive way - offering up 10 simple habits that we as adults and children should have in our arsenal to deal with everyday life. These 10 habits should and can be retained for life.

This is an important and another groundbreaking new audiobook from the bestselling author of The Chimp Paradox and the creator of the chimp management mind model. Parenting & Families Relationships Habits Inspiring Thought-Provoking Emotions

If you have read The Chimp Paradox you will already know what to expect from this book, what differs here is the perspective that, while building on the chimp model, shifts to that of a child.

This book allows the reader to explore their childhood and, if a parent, the life of their children and in turn how to assist them make sense of their behaviours and interaction with the world.

As a bonus, an additional purchase provides children with an accompanying book allowing them to explore their mind and how to control it with the expert guidance of Prof Steve Peters through visual comic like illustrations.

Another great exploratory book from Prof Peters

An interesting view and suggestions on how to coerce a problematic child, juvenile or an adult and how both child and parent may respond to reach an amicable resolution. Never having suffered with naughty children I can however appreciate the guidance and how it’s application could help in certain situations.

Thought provoking

Accessible and full of very helpful insight. Wish I’d listened/read this one and The Chimp Paradox (also excellent) years ago. I’ve learnt so much about me and ways to help my daughter become a better more rounded human.
Massive thanks to Prof SP!

Brilliant!
