Experiencing a sudden anxiety or panic attack can be frightening. Your heart races, your chest feels tight, you might feel dizzy, short of breath, or even like something terrible is about to happen. These episodes can come on quickly and without warning, making it hard to feel in control. The good news is there are effective ways to manage them—and with the right support, they can become less overwhelming over time.

According to the Child Mind Institute , short, consistent bursts of undivided attention improve a child’s emotional health and behaviour. Why? Because even a few minutes of fully present interaction tells your child: “You matter.” “I’m listening.” “I enjoy being with you.” Clinical psychologist Dr. Laura Markham says, “Connection is the foundation of cooperation.
