When your kids says “he told me that I am stupid and now I have the worst day ever…” What do I do? I used to hear that and I would instantly want to help, make them feel better, teach them a lesson, etc etc etc! (All so I could feel better by not hearing them complain about it). …

What’s is it that you want right NOW?
What’s bugging you RIGHT NOW? Right now, right before you opened this post you were thinking about something in your life that is bugging you. You may not have even realized it but felt this subtle, lingering feeling that is just there in the background. It is not a great feeling, it feels a bit …
What if this was always part of the deal?
What if you were always going to face this challenge right now ? How differently would you approach it? Your kid was always supposed to have 7 cavities in one visit. Your car was always going to break down 4 times and each time they said they fixed it, they were wrong. What if you …

100% worthy
I’m 100% worthy. I did not believe that. I used to beat myself up after yelling at my son. I thought I must be a horrible, horrible person. A monster. How can anyone be a good person when they get so angry at their kid. I used to be so angry at myself for yelling …
5 Downward Dogs and 5 Cobras
