You are the most important person 

in your child`s Life!

Love yourself !   

           

 Send loving thoughts 

to yourself 

at least once a day!

 

 Give yourself 5 minutes 

twice a day 

for reflection/meditation.

 Even if the days are turbulent - which I know they sometimes are,  the best gift you can give to yourself is time to reflect/meditate. Is a good way to reduce any stress you might feel.

When you are calm your child will feel the harmony.

You can`t pretend to be calm, your child will sense your energy!

When your young child takes a nap, turn off your mobile and just "sit" for about five minutes before preparing for the rest of the day.

A very powerful, simple exercise I can recommend when you just "sit" is to: 

Breath slowly through your nose, focus on your breath, follow your inhalation - observe the space between your inhalation and exhalation- exhale even slower ..after a few very slow deep breath through your nose start to listen to your heartbeats.

The breath and the heartbeat is the vibration of life!

It will calm you down, make you feel happy, make your problems smaller...maybe they will even disappear?!

I you have an older child that is not taking a nap in the day - you can do this exercise while sitting next to your playing child. 

Tell your child you are meditating which is like listening to your thoughts, this will make you feel good and happy in your heart, perhaps your child will join you!

Children often love to hide in a little den. If you have arranged a place, for example under  the staircase, under a table with a blanket over the top or outside in a tree house or tent - do not disturb your child when he/she is there - it is their way to listen to their own thoughts and to enjoy the silence.

We all need to find this inner place of peace, that is deep within all of us.

 "There is a place beyond right or wrong, lets meet there" , by Rumi.

Take good care of yourself first and you will have a happy and loving child!

It is the same when you are on a flight, should anything happen you are instructed to put the oxygen mask onto yourself first before putting a mask on your child! Its the same in everyday life - your well being is most important for your child's well being and happiness.
