Enlightened Moms, Raising Evolved Kids!

In this episode I discuss the first of 3 effective communication tools for getting your kids attention and cooperation.

The first tool is to REFRAME a negative statement into a positive one! This is powerful and keeps people (ie our kids) from going on the defense (the first step to the breakdown of communication). I’ll teach you how to reframe your statements and give you several reasons why this WORKS!

1. This may work well for your hubbies, too, heehee, don’t tell them I taught you this hack :)

Have you ever been to a dark place in parenting?

In this podcast I provide 5 Powerful Tips for Surviving the Darkest Days of Parenting:

1. Focus on what you can control (especially self-care, see episode 02 for more)
2. Focus on what is going right.
3. Prayer/meditation/yoga. Center yourself in the storm. Your kids need something “rooted” to hold onto.
4. Ask what this is teaching you or your family?
5. “What you resist, persists”, Dr. Wayne Dyer. Don’t swim against the rip tide.

Sometimes life gets a little crazy, whether it's exam week for the kids, or a new preschool for the little one, or everyone has the flu. Yes, sometimes self-care can take a backseat for a few days, weeks, or even months. That's when we have to go back to basics. Basics of self-care:

*breath

*hydration

*fruits/veggies

*nature

Each of these can take minutes or even seconds and can do wonders to keep our energy up during the hard times!

In this episode, Dr. Angelica Lemke (naturopath and homeopath) and I explore what it is like and what is required to parent today's kids (special needs or not), and what is no longer working for this population of kids. We discuss best practices along with mistakes we have made along the way. Includes some discussion about homeopathy and the impact it can have in smoothing out the rough spots of parenting and child development.

In this episode I introduce myself, and talk about why I started this podcast and what you can expect from it! 

I started this podcast as a result of "inspired action"! I discuss inspired action in this podcast and how it pertains to us as women and moms. 

I also discuss how when we focus on things that "light us up", we can be happier women and better moms with less baggage that weighs us down! 

Inspiring Enlightened Moms to live a holistic life of self-love and conscious parenting!
