9 guidelines to improve emotional management from home

Some very complicated weeks await us at WriteAnyPapers.com, not only because of the confinement at home, the teleworking, the own nerves that this situation generates… many of you are parents and this implies extra work; sometimes tremendously gratifying and other times extremely desperate because children need movement, to breathe, to go outside, to play much more than we do. Being locked up at home for so long can generate stress, anxiety, insomnia.

What do we find in this situation?

We are locked in the same place, without change of environment or people.

Organization of a new schedule with other routines.

Lack of social contact.

Absence of escape or evasion from the family environment.

Concern and anxiety about the lack of control in the situation. We do not know when it ends or how it ends ...

All this generates

• Anxiety.
• Stress.
• Insomnia.
• It affects the diet.
• Excessive emotions.
• Humor changes.
• Problems accepting the rules.
• More tantrums.
• You fight with the brothers.
• More attached.
• More motor restlessness.
• More irritable.
• More demanding.

What can we do?

What's going on? We have to explain and tell them what is happening whatever the age of the child. To do this, we must give clear and age-appropriate information, not wait for them to ask, reassure them, explaining that it is not their health that is at risk, avoid over information, avoid that it is not a taboo subject. Right now there are many tools available in the networks, stories, audiobooks that can help us. Young children (under 5 years old) are not capable of assessing the seriousness of a situation, they orient themselves and associate whether a situation is normal or not due to the reactions of their parents.

Routines It is essential to generate some routines. When children are in the language, everything is scheduled and structured. Depending on our age, we can do some things or others. It doesn't have to be a strict schedule, but there does have to be a certain structure. We must introduce:

• At least one lesson activity.
• At least one creative activity.
• Physical exercise.
• At least one family activity.
• At least one domestic activity.
• A bit of technology.
• Twice a day relaxation
