Unpopular parenting opinion: Your ego might be to

Unpopular parenting opinion: Your ego might be to blame for discords with your kids.

let me explain… In today’s life lessons on the way to preschool video, I share a little story about a potential power struggle that we avoided this morning that would’ve been entirely my fault!

Look, I’m not saying, parents are always to blame conscious parenting is not about taking on the bonus of everything our children does, it’s simply a practice of looking at our own role. We can’t control our kids, but we can always control how we respond.

My preschoolers school has been doing letters of the week and today he was supposed to bring an item which I had chosen for him and I was so attached to my choice and it’s brilliance that when he chose something else I was deeply offended.

we were running late, and of course I could’ve forced him to do what I wanted him to do, but I took a deep breath, and then everything changed… Watch the reel to find out

Q4U🤷🏻‍♀️ what are some power struggles that you commonly get into with your kids in the morning specifically? When you pause and look back, is your attachment and ego a potential element?

I’ve been holding myself to the same toxic diet

I’ve been holding myself to the same toxic diet culture standards that I have been since I was a little girl.

But I’m not a little girl.

I’m a woman. I’m a mom. I’ve birthed two children. I will never look like another person, especially earlier versions of myself.

I will only ever look like me.

I don’t want to miss this moment of health and wellness wishing for things to be different on a scale or a sizing label.

I don’t have words of wisdom to wrap this up with, I just want you to know that if you are tired of constantly judging your body, you’re not alone.

Maybe together we can put down this burden of always trying to compare our insides to everyone else’s outsides?

I’ve never forced my kids to do yoga. I’ve als

I’ve never forced my kids to do yoga. I’ve also never hidden it from them.

Believe me there are many days that I lock the door and hide and do my thing in peace, but there are just as many days where I move in front of them.

Sometimes they join in, sometimes they start teaching me, sometimes they just watch TV and don’t acknowledge what I’m doing.

I think one of the causes of our suffering and anxiety is this pressure to compartmentalize different parts of our lives. Kids go here, adults go here.

Let’s find more spaces where we can coexist as multiple generations in one space.

AND still get your alone time when you need it 😉

@everodsky has changed the game (literally) for couple’s everywhere through her best-selling book and organization Fair Play @fairplaylife

Her seminal book and game, and subsequent trainings and organization, helps couples re-balance the household responsibilities scale so they may find more fairness in their partnership, family, and home.

This rebalancing is especially critical for people with kids.

Even in the most “progressive” and “equal” households, responsibilities tend to fall inordinately onto the primary parent (often the mom) and Eve has dedicated her life to helping couple’s find fairness, freedom and fun again in their families.

Eve works closely with @reesewitherspoon and Reese’s organization @hellosunshine , and they just hosted their first Hello Sunshine event Shine Away in LA last month bringing together tons of inspiring women.

I’m a huge fan of all Eve does and I’m incredibly honored to get to sit down with her THIS Wed 11/29, 11a PT/2p ET for Let’s Get Real: Parenting.

I’m sure you got and deleted a LOT of emails tod

I’m sure you got and deleted a LOT of emails today…but I promise this one from @yogalifemag is worth opening as it shares my newest article “We Need Mindful Parenting Now More Than Ever : What It Is + How To Implement It”

I’ve been struggling to stay present with my kids lately….I have days where I just can’t seem to focus.

You could say this is a unique time. There’s a global conflict distracting my attention and then a family member told me medical news that has the potential to be quite scary. Both of these things have been setting a pall over even the most joyful moments.

But let’s be honest. My mind still wanders in the calmest of parenting circumstances…

How are parents supposed to stay grounded amidst so much distraction and chaos? For me, the answer has been mindful parenting….” read full piece in my bio and make sure to check out Yoga + Life’s new revamped site.

Checking on all the parents out there….you guys

Checking on all the parents out there….you guys alright?!?!

Let’s be real: having the kids home for the holidays is tough: They have a LOT of energy. They’re loud. Young kids will destroy your house. And if you don’t have help it means your running 24hr shifts.

But of course, “This time is precious” and “they grow up so fast” and “you better enjoy it”!!! (Said both genuinely and sarcastically)

Well, you know where I enjoy my kids most? Out of my house…

and ESP in nature.

They’re free to run and I’m automatically grounded by the earth and fresh air. I’m also reminded of how fleeting this time is.

That tree that was just red for fall is now bare. That bay that was just high tide and teeming with sea life is now low tide and barren. These little beings before me are growing every second.

If you notice yourself getting heightened by every little mess or move your kids are making this week, I invite you to GO OUTSIDE. See how it can shift all of your perspectives.

Grateful for all of YOU!

@redypersf and @itsyogakids (who I’m calling in

@redypersf and @itsyogakids (who I’m calling in five minutes 🤣 Hi Michelle!) are hosting their annual holiday diaper drive from Nov 17th - December 16th.

Last year our Bay Area community helped to provide approximately 200 packs of diapers & wipes to San Francisco's Homeless Prenatal Program. This year, their goal is to double that number!!!! We can help them do that, even if you don’t live in SF!

2 ways to contribute:
1. You can make a financial contribution and REDYPER™ SF will donate plant-based diapers and wipes on your behalf

2. You can donate packs of diapers and wipes at either @sproutsanfrancisco or @naturalresourcessf in San Francisco.

Your donations will help pregnant and postpartum women housed in HPP's Jelani House, a transitional housing shelter for pregnant and postpartum women in San Francisco's Bayview district.

Learn more at my linktree or donate here: https://dypersf.com/diaperdrive

The circle is a powerful symbol ⭕️⭕️⭕️

The circle is a powerful symbol ⭕️⭕️⭕️✨✨✨

When we sit in circle, it connects us all on an equal level. There is no hierarchy. It also represents the continuity of cycles. The neverending flow of endings and beginnings that is nature and life. And it’s a container. 🙌🏻 A way to literally hold space for each other.

Big thx to Jessica Connolly cofounder of @mother.circle with @kimberly.ann.johnson for coming today to share about the power of gathering.

Jessica and I talked about:
- How to create circles in our home and with our friends.
- The thirst people have for going deeper and how to deeply listen to what your community needs
- Honoring the cycles, from nature to our hormones to the phases of life

We covered a LOT and I’m feeling very inspired to dig deeper the next time I gather with a group.

Jessica also very kindly offers you all a FREE GIFT 🎁 at the end: a mother blessing guide found on the Mother Circle website

Enjoy our chat!

Maybe they’re the same thing…

You know how they say some people see the cup half empty and others half full? My meditation practice does that for me except it helps me see the world as beautiful, even when traditionally it’s not.

REMINDER🔔: Self-care IS NOT selfish

We must take care of ourselves to fill our own cup so we can then pour into those we love.

My oldest is home today for Veteran’s Day and I could’ve skipped my mindful movement practice today to spend more time with him according to the clock, but you know what???!! The quality of that time would be 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

Instead, I opted to put him on a screen and prioritize doing @theclass for 1 hour.

On paper that may have looked like one less hour together, but the quality of my attention after I finished was EXPONENTIALLY sharper than if I’d skipped it.

Taking that time away from him (aka FOR ME) allowed me to give him more time because now I am able to be that much more present.

This is the yoga of parenting.

PS thank you @jayceegossett missed your class soooo much

#Seratonin Series: This is what’s bringing me JO

#Seratonin Series: This is what’s bringing me JOY the past few weeks

I don’t know about you, but I’m having to using every single tool in my tool kit right now to stay present and find joy.

When I’m left to my own devices (pun intended), I’ve been consumed with anxiety, but when I return to the basics of nature, connection, touch, movement, silence, and saffron, I feel so much lighter and more hopeful.

That’s thing with anxiety and fear: it can keep us trapped in a horror movie and unable to see new possibilities and endings.

But I choose to have hope. I choose to trust peace. I choose to focus on connection.

I usually rely on my @thefullestco Warm Feelings saffron tea, but now that I have two very mobile and VERY opinionated kids, I don’t always have the time for a full on tea ceremony, or even getting to drink the whole cup.

Recently, I’ve been taking The Fullest’s Kinder Thoughts saffron supplements and OMG, it’s making a HUGE difference on my mood and intrusive thoughts.

Saffron has been repeatedly proven as having numerous medicinal benefits for mood regulation, esp for those of us with anxiety and depression.

I don’t know about you all, but I’m here for any additional serotonin I can get right now! Thank goodness for natural sources like sunsets, cuddles, and this amazing flower.

Oh and manicures ofc ☺️
