Children who cannot express their emotions turn into angry, introverted and aggressive children. Children who cannot say what they feel cannot use the correct method of expression because they do not know how to express themselves, either at home or at school. One reason for this is that parents have not taught the child how to express their emotions and have never told the child their own feelings. You can try these methods to help children cope with their emotions: *Listen to them with all your attention. * Show that you accept their feelings with words such as "Aaaaa", "Hmm". *Name their feelings. * Respond to your desires with dreams. Before all this, the parent must help the child express himself.
What color do you feel? One of the ways I use to get children to connect with their emotions is to ask them to imagine that emotions have colors. I recommend using red for anger, blue for calmness, yellow for anxiety, black for sadness, orange for excitement, green for happiness, and purple for 'perfect mood!' When the child tells me something that bothers him, what are the colors that are circulating around you now? I ask. If she says she has a lot of red (anger) and black (sadness) emotions, I encourage her to point out where in her body she feels those emotions. Is it mostly black or red? Is there any green there? This is an excellent way to help some children focus on their bodies and experience their emotions without disconnecting from them when they become restless. There is an animation application I developed for this purpose. I tell an angry (red) child to imagine pouring a bucket of blue (calm) over his angry emotions, creating purple (great mood). Some children like to use this approach proactively to feel better.
Children should be in a calm environment, not one that feeds their anger. Our attitude towards children must develop from a place of love, listening and empathy. By teaching our children to understand the emotions they feel, we use facial expressions and body movements. We can teach you a lot about i and the tone of voice that each emotion causes. One thing to avoid is trying to persuade our angry or overwhelmed children. We can encourage them to express how they feel, but waiting a few minutes usually helps them calm down.
If we want to raise emotionally intelligent and healthy children, we must start by allowing our children to express their feelings.
