Even though Soulfilled Sisterhood is not primarily focused on parenting I thought I would do a bonus episode to give support to those of you who are parents. Please remember together we are stronger. Be kind to one another.
In this episode-Parenting:
- If your child doesn’t have a specific time to start online school let them sleep in some
- Let go of “doing it all” especially if you are working from home
- If have younger child(ren) shift your expectations around their education requirements
- Emotional Support and love most important right now
- Home Schooling is not a full 8 hour day
- Look at starting or restarting family meetings (LYD episode 03 Link)– link to Launching Your Daughter
- Ask your child if they need a hug-do not force hugging.
- Allow your child to feel their feelings.
- Listen to them without attempting to fix it.
- Ask them how you can support them.
- Ask if they are open to feedback
- Create structure
- Change your clothes,
- Create 3 to 4 big chunks of time per day to do an activity
- You have heard me say this over and over on the podcast but I will say it again—-Please make sure you are creating self-care time for you-will decrease yelling at one another, feeling overwhelmed, and help you stay in the front part of your brain where you coping skills are, rationalizing and thinking skills are
- Take small breaks from one another-go outside, separate room, stretch/exercise, listen to soothing music, do meditation, etc
