Neural Flexibility: Helping Your Kids Develop a Growth Mindset

May 23, 2025 • Dr. Lisa Dunne • Season 8 • Episode 197

A mindset is a cognitive bias, a systematic manner of thinking that influences our decisions, our actions. Understanding the foundations of our mindset can help us move beyond the limitations of some of our belief-to-behavior patterns. How about you? Is your mindset oriented toward growth, or do you tend to get stuck in a fixed, limiting mindset that holds you back? Join Dr. Lisa on today's show to learn how to develop a family-friendly routine of mental flexibility that will lighten your stress load and provide a stronger base for mental health. What we believe determines how we behave, so let's set our families up for success with the building blocks of neural flexibility.
