Notching Up The Nurtured Heart Approach Workbook - The New Inner Wealth Initiative for Educators

by Lisa Bravo with Howard Glasser and Melissa Lynn Block

In his book Notching Up the Nurtured Heart Approach, Howard Glasser gave us specific techniques on how to deepen our practice of the approach. In this accompanying workbook by Lisa Bravo and Howard Glasser, we re guided further with interactive exercises and a fresh Lisa-esque spin on implementing Howard s ideas in the class- room. With this approach, I converted my old, tired Great job! to something far more specific: Victor, I really wish your mom could see you being an expert problem solver! She would be so proud! I called students up to the front of the room after math lessons to give them a lecture...not about something that they did wrong, but about the great focus and determination they showed during their learning. --Rhett Etherton, primary school teacher and Advanced Trainer of the Nurtured Heart Approach

The Nurtured Heart Approach has offered a path to recognizing the heart and greatness of every student in every situation. As a team we choose this path every day. It s as if our lives depend on it...but really, it’s our students lives that depend on it!

--Amy Sward, principal, North Education Center, Minneapolis, MN

Transforming the Difficult Child Workbook: An Interactive Guide to The Nurtured Heart Approach

by Lisa Bravo, Howard Glasser, Joan Bowdidge

This long-awaited Nurtured Heart Approach Workbook brings to life the approach that has helped hundreds of thousands of parents, educators, therapists and other caregivers to help intense children to go from negativity to highly positive outcomes. So many children simply experience the truth of how people respond to them and innocently form an impression that there is so much more available when things are going wrong. By way of normal and traditional approaches to parenting adults are typically so much more present for children when problems are occurring. When everything is going smoothly adults normally say little or nothing and even when we approve of something we at most seem to say variations of thank you or good job. Greater presence, response, energy and relationship need to happen when things are going right. The great news is that it s not only simple to turn this around, while still holding the child fully accountable, it can be done in a way that brings the child to use that very same intensity in successful ways. The best news is that this same approach that is the basis of the top selling book on ADHD, Transforming the Difficult Child (1999) by Howard Glasser and Jennifer Easley, has now evolved and is now not only easier and more powerful than ever, but it has been recreated to help parents and teachers take it to a new level of instilling greatness in the child. This workbook format provides an interactive guide to get the Nurtured Heart Approach underway. It will walk you through the process of fully understanding the approach, then it will introduce the strategies and will encourage you and support you every step of the way. It is enormously gratifying to experience the turn around to having your child be thoughtful, considerate, respectful and responsible. We hope you enjoy the journey.
