Healthy habits to help boost your child's happiness

In the first of a two part series, mental-health expert DR ALEX GEORGE reveals how early habit formation can help give children a brighter start in life
-
WHEN I was a boy at school, I struggled. I was never given a steer on how to build my mental fitness, and I didn’t know what the idea of resilience was.
I didn’t know that you could work on things that could make you feel happier and help you to deal with challenges. Thankfully, that is changing - and I’m over the moon to be part of the shift.
In 2025, we know so much more about mental health. And it begins when we're kids.
Everyone is dealt different cards - where you're born, the genetics you're given, whether there’s anxiety or mental illness in your family.
When you're given those cards, though, now we know that you can deal them, there are things you can do to maximise your experience.
Studies show our children’s mental health in general is suffering.
The biggest threat to children and their development now is just how fast the world is changing.
