Publisher's summary

In this teen mental health book for parents, teachers, and youth leaders, international speaker Joe Beckman takes the popular presentations he’s shared with more than 1,500 schools, to create truly empowered mentors—and reconnected kids.

“I often find myself dispensing advice that came directly from Joe’s words.” (Jim Tobin, eighth-grade science teacher)

More than ever, kids are feeling the burn of living in the fast-paced, do-it-all, win-at-any cost, boredom-is-bad, hyperconnected-yet-totally-disconnected society we surround them with. More than ever, they are looking for answers.

They are looking to their parents, teachers, coaches, youth pastors, mentors...and as the adults who are answering, what are we telling them? What are the most important messages all kids need to hear in today’s world?

Teaching kids to thrive and regulate emotions may seem like a challenge. Especially when parenting teens with depression and anxiety, it’s hard to know the right thing to say.

Just Look Up is a small book that tackles this big task—providing concise and practical advice that fits into everyday dinner-table and youth-group conversations.

Combining humor, authenticity, and heart, Joe Beckman shares five specific phrases he believes all kids (and adults) need to hear. The result is a refreshing, authentic, and down-to-earth approach to finding self-worth, resilience, confidence, joy, and maybe most importantly, human connection.

In this quick and inspirational listen, discover:

  • Research-based practices for childhood mental health, human connection, and self-worth
  • The right thing to say to teens with intense emotions
  • A template for managing screentime and conquering cell phone addiction
  • Student and teacher study guides packed with inspirational self-help
  • Companion videos and discussion starters to empower the kids you care about

This kids mental health book blends the modern understanding of Matt Haig’s Notes on an Anxious Planet with the practical applicability of What Great Teachers Do Different.

It’s time to lift up our heads, shake off the fog, reconnect–and do it together.

“A great read with much-needed messaging for all ages and audiences—especially now when human connection is needed more than ever.” (Tina Uphoff, health coach, fitness trainer, and mom)

YES!

Loved this audio book! I’d heard Joe speak at our school district and knew how powerful his message was. This book reminded me how amazing his stories and message is! So great for students, parents, and anyone who works at school 😊 Thanks, Joe for this message and the practical tips and key words to help put it all into action! ❤️
