<span class="a-text-bold">In this teen mental health book for parents, teachers, and youth leaders, international speaker Joe Beckman takes the popular presentations he's shared with over 1,500 schools, to create truly empowered mentors―and reconnected kids.</span>

<span class="a-text-bold">"I often find myself dispensing advice that came directly from Joe's words."</span>

― Jim Tobin, 8th-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.

<span class="a-text-italic">Just Look Up</span> 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 read, discover:

<ul class="a-unordered-list a-vertical">

<span class="a-list-item">research-based practices for childhood mental health, human connection, and self-worth,</span>

<span class="a-list-item">the right thing to say to teens with intense emotions,</span>

<span class="a-list-item">a template for managing screentime and conquering cell phone addiction,</span>

<span class="a-list-item">student and teacher study guides packed with inspirational self-help, and</span>

This kids mental health book blends the modern understanding of Matt Haig's <span class="a-text-italic">Notes on an Anxious Planet</span> with the practical applicability of <span class="a-text-italic">What Great Teachers Do Different</span>.

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

<span class="a-text-bold">"A great read with much-needed messaging for all ages and audiences―especially now when human connection is needed more than ever."</span>― Tina Uphoff, health coach, fitness trainer, and mom
