It's never too early to learn about self-care.

Monkey see, money do, and those little monkeys are watching our every move. So if we aren't exercising self-care, your kid won't either...And then we'll have on our hands a kid who is stressed, depressed, and burned out.
​
Here are some examples of self-care you can teach your kids this weekend:
1. Allowing yourself some silly TV, simply for fun.
2. Reading comic books.
3. A simple breathing exercise such as "square breathing".
4. A simple mindfulness exercise such as the "loving kindness meditation".
5. A warm bath.
6. Playing with your dog or cat.
7. Running around and being silly in the backyard.

I hope this helps. I would love to see your list; let me know how you and your kids exercise self-care.
