Why we need The Arrow Dynamic Curriculum™?

The stressors that kids encounter growing up in today’s world look completely different from when we were growing up. There’s so much coming at them from every angle- social media, the pressure to be “cool” and let's not even mention all of the changes taking place in their bodies during adolescence!

Stress isn’t bad, however if not managed properly, it can contribute to a long list of physical and mental health issues. It’s important that children have the right tools in their toolbox and establish healthy mental habits as early as possible. This will equip them to navigate stressors, redirect negative thoughts and replace them with positive truth as they begin their journey! Any incredible journey ALWAYS begins with positive Self-Talk.

Positive self talk helps to build self esteem and courage in youth by developing their inner voice. As they affirm themselves and are affirmed, their inner voice become stronger and stronger. Over time, their inner voice will have the power to contend and annihilate negative words of defeat and inadequacy. At that point, a kid is well on their way to having all the confidence and resiliency needed to accomplish and or mange anything they might encounter in life.

One of the coolest things we’ve heard so far is that the curriculum is so EASY to use!

You can literally take it anywhere and use it at any time to affirm your child. Parents are using it as a conversation starter or a quick activity during or after dinner! Our curriculum launches youth toward building confidence and self esteem through positive self-talk.

  • Our products are being used by youth in elementary school, middle and high school. Parents and youth leaders use this product to help build self esteem and confidence in young leaders.

  • Self confidence is nurtured by positive self-talk and belief in ones self. As youth begin to consistently recite the affirmations and arrow points found in our curriculum, they begin to replace negative thoughts with a positive truth about themselves. Ultimately, research shows that affirmations help with regulating emotions, problem solving and controlling impulses.  

  • Studies show that we can maintain our self esteem simply through positive self talk. This psychological theory is known as the "Self-Affirmation" theory (Steele 1988).

    When positive affirmations are a part of a youth's development, repeated frequently and committed to memory the brain stores this information. The affirmations work by challenging negative thoughts that are inconsistent with what has already been stored.

It is our responsibility as leaders to equip the youth in our sphere of influence with tools they’ll need to be confident to face their fears and conquer them.
