Utbrott, tårar, trots och ilska – eller att barnet drar sig undan och sluter sig. Starka känslor kan visa sig på olika sätt. Ofta lider både barnet och föräldrarna av att de ständigt hamnar i konflikter och bråk eller inte når varandra. Föräldrar kan också känna sig misslyckade för att situationer eskalerar till negativa spiraler som till slut påverkar hela familjen.

Barn som är ovanligt känslostarka eller som fastnar i sina känslor längre än andra behöver hjälp av sina föräldrar. Och det hoppfulla är att du som förälder kan bryta den negativa spiralen med ganska små och enkla medel.

Psykologen Anna Rosengren ger dig kunskap om barns känslor, känsloreglering och vanliga reaktioner hos föräldrar. Du får veta både hur du hjälper barnet när känslorna svallar och hur du kan förebygga stormarna. Med många exempel visar hon hur du kan använda olika strategier i olika situationer.

Känslostarka känsliga barn vänder sig till dig som är förälder till barn i 5–11-årsåldern. Även du som möter föräldrar och känslostarka, känsliga barn i ditt yrke har stor behållning av boken.

Sagt om boken:

”Jag vill rekommendera boken särskilt för dess uppriktiga tilltal och övertygande inramning med sammanfattningar av kapitel som tål att återkomma till om igen. Jag tycker också om hur författaren förankrar olika dialogexempel i en fördjupande genomgång av forskning på ett språk som är väldigt lätt att ta till sig på samma gång som utmaningar för föräldern lyfts upp.”Åsa Victorsson, Sokraten nr 3, 2025

”Känslostarka känsliga barn är mycket bra och fylld med vardagsnära exempel, vilka ofta är pedagogiskt skrivna i dialogform. Genomgående visar författaren hur saker kan gå på tok och ger goda exempel för att lösa situationen.”Therese Nordholm, BTJ-häftet nr 12, 2025

From the internet’s “art dad”: an encouraging and inspiring guide for artists of all levels to embrace failure, overcome self-doubt, and rediscover the joy of creating art.Is there such a thing as cheating in art? No.Am I too old to start making art? Of course not.Will I ever like my art? Yes. Eventually. But not always (it’s complicated).Can my art ever get better? Yes. But with practice (and a lot of patience).If I become an artist, will I be rich? What? No. Who’s asking these questions???With the inviting nature of Bob Ross and the kindness and empathy of Mister Rogers, Scott Christian Sava has become the internet’s “art dad” to over four million artists (young and old) around the world. But this is not a book about how to hold a pencil. Or how to draw a superhero. Or how to break into the art world (although we do talk about that a little). It’s about how we can enjoy the process of making art and let go of perfection and self-doubt and the fear of failure by learning to be okay with where we are on our own individual artistic journey. That art is all about experimentation, failing, and trying again.Becoming an Artist is part encouragement, part storytelling, part sketchbook. Filled with art, stories, silly tangents, hard-won wisdom, and over 50 black-and-white watercolor illustrations, all created during a very hectic week in New York City.Whether you’re a total beginner, a burned-out pro, or someone who hasn’t made art since middle school, this book is your permission slip to just make stuff. To be weird. To be imperfect. To be human.

For fans of How We Heal and Keep Moving, therapist and author of Already Enough, Lisa Olivera blends her own personal experience of battling depression with therapeutic wisdom in a moving exploration of the emotional pain each of us lives with, offering readers guidance on creating a life of presence and beauty not without it, but alongside the various aches we carry.Emotional pain, of all kinds and magnitudes, is part of life. We'll never be able to find ourselves free of it; no meditation or amount of therapy will cure us of the harder parts of being alive. The practice of turning toward the ache with care - reverence, even - might be one of the most meaningful gifts we can give ourselves. It might even save us.Lisa Olivera has confronted this reality for years as a therapist, weaving her exploration of it throughout her popular newsletter, Human Stuff. She asks questions like, how do we confront and tend to the painful parts of being human without letting that pain entirely overtake us? How do we find joy even when depression visits, even when we lose someone we love, even when the hurt of the world is ever-present? How do we cultivate aliveness in the midst?When the Ache Remains explores these questions for readers in a tender and wise exploration of how ache shapes life, how we can alchemize our pain into medicine, and how presence is accessible even in the midst of difficulty. Blending deeply personal narrative, humanistic psychology, lessons from nature, words of nourishment, and her naturally poetic undertone, Lisa invites readers on a journey alongside her as she explores the impact of depression and the process of learning to tend to it, and all of our aches, in more open, integrative, and loving ways.

What emerges is a worldview filled with optimism and hope and an understanding as to why our bodies sometimes act in ways our brains wish they didn’t.Filled with actionable advice and real-world examples, this book will change the way you think about your brain, body, and ability to stay calm in a world that feels increasingly overwhelming and stressful.

All of us have – to a greater or lesser extent – suffered from traumas in our lives, often at a young age. The less we address these traumas, the more they have a habit of causing us difficulties in the form of broken relationships, nagging anxieties, depression, or physical symptoms like insomnia, digestive issues or backache.This book helps us understand what trauma is, how it can affect us for decades, and how we can liberate ourselves from its unfair and painful legacy. At once deeply practical and packed with ideas, the book functions like a humane and wise guide through a range of our most puzzling psychological difficulties. We are shown how to understand our pasts, assess our pains and finally say goodbye to troubles and repetitive patterns that have dogged us for too long.This – at last – is a route to liberation and the calm self-awareness and fulfilment we have been searching for.
