βοΈ π· Letting go of mom guilt, the importance of daylight for sleep + get ready for spring with a renewal meditation and outdoor fun

β β Last Week's Most Read Articles βMontessori Playroom Inspirationβ β βLetting Go of Mom Guiltβ We found a great book to add to your Mother's Day gift list. Wait - you don't have a gift list? Yeah, neither do I - and that's probably why I needed to read Katy's perspective on the new book Motherkind. My favorite takeaway is: Somehow, "mother" is equated with "martyr," and while parenting certainly requires sacrifices, it doesn't have to change WHO you are. I hope you enjoy her take and seriously... start that Mother's Day gift list π β βHow More Time Outdoors Improves Sleepβ Did you know that only a third of the bodyβs energy should come from food? The remaining 2/3 energy sources are light, grounding, movement, and water. Our indoor lifestyles don't allow for a lot of natural light and grounding. And especially for kids - the most fun exercise happens outside. This article on nature and the circadian rhythm is focused on kids, but it applies to everyone. β βSpring Renewal Meditationβ Spring is a time of new beginnings. This meditation is a wonderful opportunity for kids to learn how each new season is part of a cycle we can depend on year after year. It's also available in the PDF library. β Thanks to those who sent in ideas for repurposed Easter baskets. They were so creative. We'll have them all pulled together for you next week!
