My book is in ALBERTA! @patchoulimintspasalon Thi My book is in ALBERTA! @patchoulimintspasalon This picture makes me happy in so many ways 1. Female entrepreneurs supporting eachother 2. Community and love 3. Taking the leap to write my book was the "write" thing to do 😁 4. People are noticing my work 5. The universe has my back 6. Trust in yourself and others will as well ✨ Sometimes the jerk in your head says mean things ✨ We tend to focus on the negative ✨ Our self doubt can hold us back from following through on our goals both big and small. So just go for it! You never know, unless you try. Find the kindness, it's out there! #positivethinking #positvity #positivevibes #findyourjoy #todayichoosehappiness #getoutofyourownway #ichoosepeace #womensupportingwomen #lifteachotherup #womenlifteachotherup #momthemanager #writersofinstagram #hamiltonauthors #parentingbooks #femaleauthor #iquitohwaitimthemom #grateful #gratitude #thankful
Scared of the teen years? Here is one perk.... (T Scared of the teen years? Here is one perk.... (There are so many tho) You get to SLEEP!!! So many worry about having teenagers. Do you feel the same? Each milestone is a blessings. Each milestone has it's struggles. If you have a great relationship with your child now, why would that change inna few years? It takes work. The transition for parents is hard. Many don't want to let go. They want to take care of them, keep them safe.. it called smothering! Children want their independence. They need to be taught how to do things on their own. Listen to their opinions, let them be their own person. We are there to guide them, to protect them is not helpful. Start preparing, change your expectations, and your relationship will grow. Why are you scared of the teen years? #momlifebalance #parenting #parentingtips #Hamiltonmoms #Hamiltonmom #bossmom #momlifeunfiltered #momlifebalance #momofateenager #momthemanager #parentingateen #teenparenting #momofateenager #Ilovemyteen
Working together is a MUST! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When the child hear a yes right after a no, they know they can bargain.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Children will try. They are willing to take a chance and ask. The message is, we don't stick to our rules and ANYTHING goes! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As the children get older parents need to talk more. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What are the expectations? What will we stick to and what can we be more relaxed on? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Bedtime⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Chores⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Electronics⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Routines⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you're divorced remember you can't always being the same page, but being in the same book is a good start. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You can't control what happens in your ex's home. If you have a good co-parenting relationship have the conversations to clarify expectations. Check in with eachother. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Are you on the same page? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What are some of the struggles you are having? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ comment below⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #momlifebalance #parenting #parentingtips #Hamiltonmoms #Hamiltonmom #bossmom #momlifeunfiltered #momlifebalance #momofateenager #momthemanager #iquit #iquitmomlife #youdonthavetodoitall #teamfamily
Today one year ago I taped the first episode of my Today one year ago I taped the first episode of my show #LifeWithChildren on @cable14 "Finding Your Joy in Motherhood" Self-care is the 1st step towards JOY For @katiedelasol of @delasolyoga self-care is an important ingredient to start her day. Self-care helps regulate her mood and sends positive energy into the world. Katie talked about weaving in little moments of indulgence everyday. When @professormaja thinks self-care she thinks self-compassion. 1. Have self-kindness instead of self-judgement. 2. Mindfulness in the moment keeps you from ruminating about the hard day before, or a mommy moment you weren't proud of. 3. To remember common humanity. We've all made mistakes and had hard days. Self-compassion is a tool. It gives us breathing room between our negative thoughts and internalization. Instead of "I've failed, I am a failure." Say: "I had a hard day." @debfaz.living.on.my.terms of @preciousmomentsbabeez says that self-care is like putting the oxygen on yourself first on an airplane. In her eyes asking for help is necessary. Self-care is having a support system. It's little snippets everyday. Self-care is being gentle on yourself. You don't have to get everything done by yourself. Self-care is your way to keep yours head above water. Self-compassion is saying I'm worth it. I love myself. You feel you are worth it? Does your self-compassion need some work?
