Life can be painful, and present us with situations that cause us to question everything we thought we knew. Often we feel isolated and overwhelmed, especially as parents. Sometimes issues from our past like sexual abuse or other painful childhood experiences resurface. Parenting our children during these times can feel hopeless, causing anxiety or depression.
Discover how to take care of yourself first, so that you can more effectively take care of your children. With mindfulness and compassion allow me to guide you towards Feeling more alive. Learn to have fun again as you restore inner peace and family harmony.
