🫂Inside Out 2 continues to open doors to communication. Children will be able to learn about their emotions and the changes that come with puberty, peer pressure and self esteem. Adults will remember this stage. In many instances it is funny and others are very thought provoking. I would recommend that once you watch it have a conversation with your family.

☀️Here are some great questions to discuss:
1. What lessons did you learn from the movie?
2. Can you describe a scene that made you think deeply about your own experiences?
3. How do you think the main character's journey can apply to your own life?
4. What are some ways we can use what we learned from the movie in our daily lives?
5. How did the movie help you understand your own emotions better?

Yesterday, I had the emotional experience of watching 'Inside Out 2.' I highly recommend that all families and anyone who works with teens take the time to watch this impactful movie. I'll soon be sharing my analysis along with tips and tricks on how to navigate this significant change. Stay tuned!

Executive functioning skills are the mental processes that enable us to plan, focus attention, remember instructions, and manage multiple tasks successfully. Think of them as the brain's command center, helping us navigate daily life efficiently.

🧠 Key Executive Functioning Skills:
1. Planning and Organization- Setting goals, creating plans, and organizing tasks.
2. Time Management- Prioritizing tasks, estimating time, and meeting deadlines.
3. Working Memory- Retaining and using information for tasks.
4. Flexible Thinking- Adapting to new situations and overcoming obstacles.
5. Self-Control- Managing emotions and impulses, and thinking before acting.
6. Attention Control- Sustaining focus and avoiding distractions.
7. Task Initiation- Starting tasks promptly without procrastination.
🌟 These skills are crucial for daily functioning and overall well-being. They help us:
🔹 Stay Organized-From managing a schedule to keeping our environment orderly, executive functioning keeps our lives running smoothly.
🔹 Achieve Goals- Effective planning and time management enable us to set and reach personal and professional goals.
🔹 Navigate Challenges- Flexible thinking and self-control help us adapt to unexpected changes and handle stress.
🔹 Improve Academic Performance- Strong working memory and attention control are vital for learning and academic success.
🔹 Enhance Social Interactions- Good self-control and flexible thinking improve our relationships and social interactions.
