If your child's feeling lost at sea, you need to get in the boat.
Kneel down with them and label the emotion, so your child's clear on what's actually happening. Then you can guide them.

Too many times I see mums giving their all at the expense of themselves. Self love is not a feeling, it's a behaviour and if you don't prioritise your own wellbeing and happiness, then the mothership is going down. You have to put your needs first before you can serve others.

Music. The only language that needs no translation. It crosses race, sex, geography and more often than not carries the message of emotions.

It fuels nostalgia, memories and can even conjure up smells. Just one bar of a song and we can be transported in our minds...and we remember ALL the words.

That’s because the brain loves patterns. It loves rhymes and rhythms...and if you put a tune to it, you’re singing it all day right? Sometimes whether you want to or not .

What a wonderful vehicle then to teach our children. From picking up their pants  (free workshop in the link)  to much deeper and more intentional messages, the language of music goes and stays in, like simply nothing else can  to much deeper and more intentional messages, the language of music goes and stays in, like simply nothing else can.

And that's because the brain loves patterns. It loves chinking things up into rhymes and rhythms. But if you add in fun and make it a shared activity...

If a child is struggling to be present, are they really being difficult at three years old? The moment we label them as difficult, we are judging them.

When we become parents it changes everything; when we're also working we need to consider logistics, work flexibility and parenting. Spend time getting clear on what your priorities are, it helps to write a list of personal values and to get really clear on your top five. This will help you with meeting the demands of work and parenting, while making time for both your needs and the emotional needs of your child.
