Perhaps one of the reasons we fail to be present and parent from a place of mindfulness is due to our own internal clutter. We’ve got so much going on and don’t take care of the adult stuff (read: our own personal stuff) that it makes it extremely difficult to find room for our little peoples stuff. Whether that is a busy schedule, work projects, relationship struggles or our own work regarding patterns and beliefs, it all affects us uniquely and ultimately blocks our ability to show up for others.
