Description
Who taught you or your kids how to handle stress? That's right... No One! The remedy is available here.
Without stress skills, challenging situations can hijack our best at every age - even ruin lives. "Take Kids from Stressed to Success" uses a children's book, “Why is Pono not Pono Today?” to make it easier for adults & families to help kids bring out their best when stressed.
Set in Hawai‘i, the book's lovable characters, Pono the Bull and his friend, Kuleana, show us how a stressful situation ends happily. This course goes deeper to reveal powerful stress lessons with helpful words and images woven into every page of the book. Once you learn how to handle stress better, you'll soon achieve greater success. An e-book and audio book are included in the course. Paperback books are available wherever books are sold.
This course is designed to make it easy for families, teachers, and friends to share important life lessons about different types of stress, and maintain love and respect. Fun cartoon images teach kids powerful stress strategies that range from something as simple as a smile to words we must experience, like the Spirit of Aloha.
Optimal Focus: Elementary School level. Adults and older kids can read to children who may not read yet, but quickly memorize the story and characters. Each of our six course videos is designed to inspire more people to be kind, loving, and creative when dealing with stressful moments. New perspectives on stress with powerful strategies, insights, and tools are found in the story and every image.
Instead of becoming frustrated, short-tempered, and stressed out, now kids will gain the confidence and skills to handle stress better, feel happier, and achieve more. Aloha!

I believe that learning is a life-long process. After retiring from the Army, I used lessons and skills from those 34 years to support my husband's cross-country bicycle tour. He rode 18,067 miles to all 50 states in one year to support our military, but I had to learn everything about the care and maintenance of our RV. My goal was to do everything possible to ensure his success.
The greater the skill, the easier it will become to accomplish your goals in life. You will find that you can face and/or recover quickly from new challenges and setbacks, using them to your advantage.
