This weeks Tech Talk Tuesday:
Given all we are facing these days, we are all looking for things to be hopeful about. So let's talk about hope — is it teachable?
Hope has a tremendous impact on emotional wellbeing. There is science showing that one’s level of hope predicts their future anxiety and depression levels. Yet, anxiety and depression don’t conversely predict one’s future levels of hope.
Through research, we’ve also learned that hope is a skill that can be acquired — hope is a combination of positive feelings and inspired action.
Today I write about how you (parents, caregivers, counselors, educators, etc.) can teach hope.
