22.01.2022 We lose ourselves a little when we become mothers But that's ok Mothers are awesome at finding lost things Via @notsomumsy

22.01.2022 During difficult times it's important to grasp the beauty of fleeting and impermanent things in life: Look at the transient cycle of nature. Flowers bloom, wilt and die, but dried flowers have such potent energy and can be used to create meaningful art. Read more poetry. Or attempt to write poetry. Just like writing a diary, it is transient, gentle and very relaxing. Become a potter without a kiln. Make your own clay (baking soda, cornstarch and water). Making objects ...with your own hands is a deliberate process that soothes nerves. Maintain a semblance of routine. Even in turbulent times, certain things in the family schedule should stay the same: bubble baths, warm meals, and regular bedtimes. Add special touches to each of them: candles, essential oils, or stories from your own childhood. See more

17.01.2022 Kids who are taught healthy boundaries have well-defined sense of who they are and what they are responsible for. They also learn to be decisive and associate love with freedom. Here are 3 quick tips on how you can teach your children to set and respect boundaries: The power of gesture - even before they can speak, babies should know how to show 'no'. Offer them a choice - if you see that the word 'no' triggers your strong-willed toddler, off them a reasonable choice. ... Remember - If you need time to decompress after work, take the time to do it. When your kids see you set firm boundaries with them or anyone else, they will learn how to do that for themselves. #MindfulParentingMagazine #HealthyBoundaries

10.01.2022 "Think about how you want your home to feel when you first enter it; how you want to feel in and about your sanctuary. When we stop and really think about the amount of time we spend in our homes, we soon see the significance of how it makes us feel. Our homes have the potential to propel us to realise our wildest dreams and to live our most rewarding life. And how we set up our space either supports, or thwarts, our flow." Monica Leed CEO and owner of @simplyspaced shares her organisation hacks in this issue of Mindful Parenting Magazine

03.01.2022 From toddlers to tweens, there’s nothing like a parent’s reassuring touch to calm anxiety and soothe a child’s nervous system. Whether your little one is dealing with a bout of constipation, or has a stress-induced tight tummy, this abdominal massage oil, created to ease upset tummies and aid digestion, is a loving way to nurture your little one. Cold-pressed grapeseed oil is an excellent, lightweight choice for this massage oil. However, similar food grade oils such as oliv...e, avocado, or sesame oil will also work, so long as there are no allergy contraindications for your child. * 8 tbsp cold-pressed grapeseed oil * 4 drops lavender essential oil * 4 drops sandalwood essential oil 1. Mix oils together in a small glass bottle (a dropper bottle works well but is not necessary). USAGE: Dispense 45 drops of the oil blend into clean hands, then rub your palms together for a few seconds to warm your hands before massage. Abdominal massage should be done using a firm but gentle pressure in a clockwise direction.

03.01.2022 Essential oils have a dual action, making sure you feel relaxed yet present, uplifted yet grounded, and balanced above all else. In the current issue of Mindful Parenting we feature an extract from A Scented Life by Pat Princi-Jones, featuring some nourishing essential oil recipes. #MindfulParentingMagazine #MindfulParenting

02.01.2022 Adding a four legged friend to your family is a wonderful way to teach children many valuable lessons: treating each other with respect, learning a sense of responsibility and fostering lifelong friendship. Adopting a pet from a reliable rescue organisation such as Friends of the Hound - Greyhound Adoption Group is a sure-fire way to have that feel-good factor when welcoming a new family member. By adopting rather than shopping, you're saving a life and gaining a pet that has been health-checked, assessed for temperament, and undergone basic training.
