Parenting Quick Challenge: Deep Breath

Are you patient? I’m not. I’ll go ahead and put it out there. But when you have kids, you have to be. And if you aren’t naturally patient, you learn to be. Sometimes it’s so hard. Life runs on a schedule and guess what? Life doesn’t wait on you. It’s so easy to get caught up in the ‘We-have-to-go-now, get-your-shoes-on, and puh-lease-stop-hitting-your-brother!!!!!’ Whew. That’s a mouthful. And a mindful.

So stop. Take a deep breath. Let it out s-l-o-w-l-y. There. Feel better?

Here's the challenge: Try it today. Twice. You’ll feel more relaxed.
