Teaching Our Kids to Rebalance, Reset, and Ground Themselves In The Moment

Mindfulness is allowing our thoughts to come in the front door and out the back without entertaining them or serving them tea.

Written by Sue DeCaro, Parent Coach, Educator & Conscious Living Ambassador

What is mindfulness? Mindfulness is all about living in the present moment. Many of us go through life on autopilot, sometimes not even being aware of the moment at all. We are flooded by thoughts that take us into the past or future, removing us from this time zone: the present. In this day and age, it’s affecting our children far more than we realize which is why I’m happy to share some tips that I use in my daily practice, about how these youngsters can learn to slow down and rebalance as part of their daily routines. This is key to their wellness. I am excited to be creating some wellness stories for KiDS NEWS & REViEWS, which will become part of their Integrative Health Series.

NEVER GIVING UP ON ANY CHILD

 

 

“Whether you are a caretaker in your own home, or you find yourself working in a busy classroom, one thing I can promise you is you will have challenges thrown at you daily if not hourly, from these youngsters who require so much guidance. What I have to offer is a new language that will equip you with tools for any scenario that comes up,” Ana assures.

 

Ana Cassidy, Owner and Director of Neverland Children’s Centre in Ladner, British Columbia, Canada, has touched a lot of people with her philosophy. From parents to staff, you will often see many people poking their heads into her office to seek some advice. This has lead Ana to consider other ways she can share these tools with those in the Early Childhood Education field, and parents of children and youth up to twelve years of age. When asked what she is most proud of, Ana answers that she never gives up on any child. Now I see a whole new level of passion in Ana as the expression in her eyes deepens.

QUESTION FOR PARENTS by Sammy, 11 year old girl

When I want to stay up past my bedtime why do you sometimes say yes and then sometimes change to no? Like when I want to stay up an extra half an hour?  You always do that. And it’s not fair. You only say yes when you are not tired. But what if I am not tired?  Written by Sammy who is an 11 year old girl.

 

ANSWER FOR SAMMY’S QUESTION by Lola, 34 year old mother of 3.

Sammy. I understand how confusing and I guess, frustrating it must be to receive different answers at different times from your parents. Speaking as a mother who has been asked the same questions, I can tell you that I do the same thing, and the reason why is because sometimes it’s appropriate and sometimes it’s just not. Sometimes we have to consider the entire family and what’s going on in the entire house before we can give you our final answers and it might take us parents longer to decide and sometimes, when it’s an easier day, the answer is more obvious to yes, and more likely to be a yes.   It sounds like it might be easier if it’s always the same rule during the week. Answered by Lola, 34 year old mother of three.
