The Silent Guides

How to Understand and Develop Children’s Emotions, Thinking, and Behaviours

How can we help children become more resilient, overcome mistakes, and develop a positive outlook? And how can we, as parents, teachers, or carers, serve as better role models? In The Silent Guides, Prof. Steve Peters uses his renowned Chimp Management® Mind Model to explore the neuroscience behind unconscious beliefs and habits that silently guide children’s emotions, thinking, and behaviour.

What to expect

Based on The Chimp Model®, The Silent Guides helps parents, teachers, and carers understand how the brain forms unconscious habits and beliefs. It provides practical strategies for challenging unhelpful thoughts, such as being overly self-critical, fearing failure, or struggling with low self-esteem.

By understanding these processes, adults can help children build emotional skills that will last a lifetime.

Key areas covered
in the book:

  • Understanding the developing brain
  • Forming healthy and constructive habits
  • Developing a positive outlook
  • Overcoming self-criticism
  • Managing fear of failure

Accompanying Children’s Book

The Silent Guides is a companion to My Hidden Chimp, which helps children understand and manage their emotions. Together, these books offer a comprehensive guide to supporting the emotional development of young people.
