Gratitude Builds Flexibility For Executive Function

$4.00

others. This is mental flexibility in action—an intentional re-framing of
thoughts. This guide will help you navigate gratitude and executive function.

Description

As an occupational therapist, I often help families understand how
their child’s daily struggles—meltdowns over changes in plans,
frustration with mistakes, difficulty sharing, or negative self-talk—

functioning skills is flexibility—the ability to adapt to unexpected
changes, shift perspectives, and adjust when things don’t go our
way.
