It's easy to think at times that caring for a child may distract us from our purpose. Parenting responsibilities may seem to interfere with the work we want to do, and we don't realize that our children are here to help us fulfill our purpose (e.g., reminders of patience, discernment, replanting virtuous seeds, etc.), and along the way, we help them do the same.

In my Heal from the Inside Out Series #9, I discuss my thoughts about fear and how you can dismantle this emotion and see it for what it is. You have the right to remember who you are and experience the abundant life (in all areas) that you are here to do.

I continue to work through potentially fearful moments and help my children do the same. Both have experienced fear, and it was great seeing them transcend the moment.

If we are truly our thoughts, what is the use of uncontrolled, consistent anger? Anger often leads to unhealthy events within ourselves and the world. We don't have to be angry human beings. We can align with the divine spirit of who we are. The quieter we become, the more we feel and see that which does not belong.

There are enough experiences that can leave you doubting and questioning your life's meaning and purpose. But a change of thought can help you accept yourself and others, and it's through self-acceptance that we remember the divine spirit that we are.

In this episode, I share my story about a planted seed that influenced my health. When I realized that I didn't need to struggle with a certain aspect of my health, my life changed for the better and so now I am helping my children to address health in a life-sustaining way.

Millions of people struggle with achieving and maintaining optimal weight. As caregivers and parents, we can encourage our children to listen to their bodies to help them consume the right balance, moderation, and variety of foods. And as we teach our children about healthy nutrition, we reinforce the concepts within ourselves.

Another powerful thing we can do for ourselves and those we care for is encourage them to be their best friend. We accept and love ourselves first, even through our life experiences, knowing that we deserve to care for ourselves no matter what.

In other words, being your best friend is critical to self-care and breaking the generational cycle of pain.
