*Today's update includes thoughts on "perfection" and is best read on the web*

As a parent, how often do you feel you are getting it “wrong”?

What if you celebrated more of the things you were getting right?

Right.

I bet there's a lot more than you give yourself credit for.

Our day is full of curved balls, and plate spinning.

Which sometimes drop and break.

Give yourself one too.

Let go of the idea of “perfect”.

Lean into self-compassion and love.

We are all a work in progress.

Our kids too.

If you would like to join me to discuss "imperfect parenting" some more and other stuff, then you are invited to join me for "Random Dialogues For Parents" on 16th December, 8.15 pm to 8.45 pm (GMT) CLICK TO REGISTER.

Random Dialogues For Kids

Not all 8 to 10 year olds feel comfortable to hop into a zoom with other kids they don't know. It can be quite daunting especially as their isn't an agenda, and the children guide the session.

At this week’s "Resilient Kids Random Dialogues" session, we played a game, practised a mindful relaxing breathing exercise, shared a story, laughed and chatted randomly about our interests. I talked a little about “contribution to community” and how it makes us feel when we give without expectation and how the children who show up regularly and contribute are supporting each other.

Next month, the group are keen to collaborate on an easy art activity too.

🗓It’ll be on Thursday 16th December from 6pm to 6.30 pm (GMT) and listed HERE.

❓Perhaps you know an 8 to 10 year old child who would like to hang out and relax with our small, friendly global crew on zoom?
