Dr Amen: Raising Mentally Strong Kids

I don’t do nice things for people who don’t treat me with respect…wow I love that!

Loved this episode! I've gotten my brain scanned at Dr Amen's Seattle clinic, and found out that I have a PTSD brain (diamond pattern) and a lot of inflammation. It was one of the most insightful experiences I've had. They showed me my brain scan next to a healthy one in comparison, and it was night and day difference. Very validating to see an actual image of my unhealthy brain (vs just answering questions of what my symptoms are). So interesting to see areas that have too much blood flow, and areas that don't have enough. Dr Amen is awesome.

Dr.Amen is phenomenal❤. I would pay any amount of money for help with parenting from this man!

Yall need to have dr Sasha back on her knowledge about ADHD was so insightful for me and my ADHD

Love this podcast! I’m not a parent yet, but I know in the future I will have all these tips to help me be the best I can!❤️

I like Dr. Amen's approach to brain health, and I am also behind on letting kids solve their own problems. Late did I realise that one of the things that had kept me behind in life was my mum doing everything for me (she didn't know better), which made me feel incompetent for long. With this said, the "Love and Logic" approach he mentions really does NOT resonate with me. It assumes kids try to manipulate parents, for example. As a neuroscientist who's seen tens of thousands of brain scans, he surely knows that a small child has not developed the brain areas capable of manipulating yet. I believe compassionate role modelling is the way.

It’s really so simple to practice this with children, and makes such a difference in behavior! Thank you Dr. Amen!

As a mom of two boys I can tell you this is 💯 so spot on … I’m raising two boys and it’s hard as a parent because there is such a focus in todays society on just children’s emotions but as a mom you have to realize it’s so much more then just emotions it’s also thinking about how do I raise a mentally resilient kid that will need to know how to make it through life and I’ve taken a lot of what he says and have done it with my boys and it’s almost just like it instills common sense in your kids… it also gives them the confidence that they are capable and they can do hard things so just want to say that there are so many good nuggets of wisdom here!

Your each and every ebisode is awesome ❤❤ and you both look so good together...never stop ur podcast pls❤❤regards from India # always team jacob❤❤

Every statement from Dr.Amen was gold. One of the most insightful podcasts I’ve ever heard, thank you for doing this! I want everyone I know to watch this episode and learn from it

Awesome! Wish I had this book 19 years ago.

I actually have Jim Fays book, How to Discipline Kids without Losing Their Love and Respect. Its a great book and an introduction to love and logic. I love this episode and the great information Dr. Amen provides. As a parent I find this so helpful and I really appreciate you having him on your podcast to share all his wisdom with us all ❤❤❤

I love this new setup

Wow, mrs. Taylor, you look so much like kira knightly in this video❤

I wish I can have you in my birth country DR Amen to help all the children’s that are growing up with out parents and are with families that don’t even want then, I really will love to be able to help children’s lest fortune because they are also part of the future❤

Love Dr Amen and Tana Amen❤

I loved the intro song baby

You just answered a question from my exam a while ago 😱🤯😱

What are the 175 foods that the kid with tics loves and love him back? I'd love to know because this has been an issue for me when trying to improve our diet at home. My kids and I have bad eating habits but it's been a struggle for me to get them to eat healthier.

Ive read that every person is lactose intolerant. I guess some people are affected more
