Happy New Year to You all!!

Hope you found time in the holidays for fun and time to slow down a bit!!!

All the best in this New Year

1. Time for you: Making time for your own personal space and personal growth needs to be a priority because it allows you the energy to be a dedicated parent and grow as an individual. Choose something that carries you, frees you, nurtures your soul and lifts your spirits, even for a short period of time.

2. Time for you alone with your child: Something magical happens between parent and child when you share focussed time together. Kids become more open and cuddly - there is true connection.

3. Time for you alone with your partner: This can easily slide away or take a backseat in your lives together. People within all relationships have some gaps between them and experience some conflicts. When we feel our partners have no real appreciation and would rather spend time elsewhere, it is difficult to maintain a strong bond. We need to come together, to feel respected, needed, and valued. A great way to do that is to spend quality time together, just like you did before you had children.

4. Time for family: A positive sense of self is generated by including each family member in a meaningful way and respecting their feelings. Kids feel important and meaningful when they are part of a group.This can include, outings, nice diners together or a movie and games night.

5. Time for your child to play with other children: Children need to learn how to interact with and be accepted with peers. It helps them to learn the importance of sharing, taking turns, being creative and feel good outside the family.
