COVID-19 has introduced a level of stress and uncertainty to our daily lives that leads to more anxiety, for parents and for kids. Since we know that the best way to help worried children is for parents to cope with their own anxiety in a healthy way, this week on childmind.org we’re sharing skills for dialing down anxiety that will benefit both and make the whole family more comfortable.

One of the most powerful tools for lowering anxiety is mindfulness, and in another new article we offer tips for using mindfulness to help face down anxiety and depression as we ride out this crisis.
