Children and health

It’s natural to talk about topics such as your children, your family, your health. However, it is important to talk about everything in a positive light, especially if you are in a circle of strangers. Criticizing your children in front of other people can affect their self-esteem, make them more withdrawn and doubt their self-worth. Children “are likely to listen to what people say and form opinions based on their interactions with others,” says Sanam Hafeez, a New York City neuropsychologist and director of Comprehend the Mind. “Instead, discussing your child’s effort will encourage them to embrace challenges, learn, and explore new things” advises Dr. Sara Huberman Carbone, a pediatric program medical director at One Medical.

When it comes to your health, constantly complaining about not feeling good, will only attract more illness and health problems. What you send into the universe comes right back to you, in various and multiplied forms. So, pay attention to your words and what you allow the universe to hear from you.
