I'm 16. I opened up the newspaper (we didn't have internet or google back then) to look up the places for rent. Mum's been crying for months. (...Years.. however, this time around, it's brutal). She has been feeling so stuck and defeated... and I knew our living circumstances HAD to change. I will never forget that feeling of hearing the words, "Yes... we need to leave" spoken by her i ... |
The habit that gets in the way of your parenting
Taking it personally.
You take their rudeness personally.
You take their yelling personally.
You take their withdrawal personally.
You take all their emotions and how they react personally.
And the more you take things personally - the less power you have to influence and change things.
It can feel personal - and it's NOT personal.
Don Miguel Ruiz says; "Everyone is the dreamer of their own...
How hard are you on yourself?
Notice I didn't ask, "Are you hard on yourself?"...
I asked, "How hard are you on yourself?"
My guess is you have high expectations of yourself - and you're hard on yourself. Really hard.
And you feel this is normal.
Well.... it's normalized within you. Not normal.

That's why most parents find it challenging to connect w...
You don't have to sacrifice your happiness
You don't have to sacrifice your happiness.
As you read this - for some of you, you may nod in agreement - and find it hard to believe.
And for others, you might vehemently disagree and then give me the reasons why.

Last year an acquaintance on Facebook shared that his doctor said he had terminal cancer and had 1 month left to live. It was out of the blue... As soon as he heard the diagnosis - he started preparing to die and organised "last goodbye" get-togethers. It was almost a month from the date of diagnosis that he transitioned and passed away. He accepted a reality someone else created for ... |
How to know if your Heart is closed
|
What you don't know about your Heart...
Most people don't know their Heart is closed or that they struggle with their Heart - especially those that have a really big Heart and are always giving.
Over-giving is a sign you're disconnected from your Heart.
There are also people who didn't even know that they consciously shut down their Heart... or maybe they do, and don't know how to reopen it.
This is the reason most partnerships and mar...
