MOOD LIFTED 🎄👌

Let’s face it - parenting is hard.
Between the “No,” the “Not right now,” and the never-ending to-do list, it’s easy to feel like we’re constantly racing against the clock.
But connection doesn’t need hours. A few intentional minutes can have a huge impact.

This week, try these small-but-mighty ways to reconnect 👇

1. “10 things I love about you.”
Kids light up when they hear what makes them special. It boosts self-esteem, strengthens your bond, and anchors them in who they are, not just what they do.

2. Create space for an activity together.
Whether it’s drawing, baking, or building something, shared activities tell your child: You matter enough for me to slow down. Quality time = emotional fuel.

3. Be curious, “How can I help you this week?”
Curiosity is connection. This question gives them permission to express needs they didn’t know how to ask for and shows that you’re on their team and willing to help.

4. Practice gratitude - “Spending time with you is important to me because…”
Children rarely hear why they’re cherished. Naming it helps them feel valued, secure and deeply loved.

5. Draw your favourite things from the week.
Reflection helps kids process emotions, celebrate achievements and feel heard and understood. When you create something together like this, it encourages the conversation to flow after, add your own best bits in too to create something shared. This really makes space for empathy too.

I did this with my children this week and it was such a lovely way of connecting, we did 10 things I love about you in the car and the things my kids loved about me most were me making tea and giving cuddles and biscuits 😂 nevertheless it made for an entertaining car journey! 🙈😂

Let me know what your kids love best about you too! Hopefully I’m not the only one appreciated mainly for my snacks 😂

🐾 Morning Meditation. Animal Breath.

I love this breathing exercise, it's so much fun and really engages little imaginations.

Start by sitting comfortably,

Choose an animal, for example, a lion, bunny, or elephant.

Breathe like your animal:

🦁Take a big inhale through your nose, roar your biggest lions roar on the exhale.

🐰Take 3 quick little sniffs in, 1 slow long exhale. Don't forget your bunny ears! ✌

🐘 Pretend your arm is a trunk, inhale through your nose, lift your “trunk,” exhale with a slow swoosh and your biggest elephant trumpet!

Repeat for 2–3 rounds, noticing how your body feels and see if you can imagine how your animal would feel.

Take it one step further and begin to move like your animal, think about its weight, speed and temperament. Are you a family of elephants? Peter and Flopsy? Maybe you're a pride of lions... move around your space breathing, moving and sounding like your animal.

Finally start to think about how your animal sleeps 💤 begin to curl up like your animal and find a moment of peace. Close your eyes and imagine where they might sleep and how they might feel. Take a few deep breaths here. 💛

Practicing yoga has given me the space and clarity to finally realise my natural disposition, who I am underneath it all and through that journey it taught me something I wish every young person knew: stress is not your identity. Intrusive thoughts, overwhelm, emotional fog, they’re signals, not character traits.
Yoga became the place where I finally separated me from the weight I was carrying and now I have the privilege of sharing this journey with children and young people and helping them understand their minds with compassion and curiosity. 💛

Hearing feedback like this reminds me why I do what I do. Watching little ones grow in confidence, creativity and peace through yoga is truly magical. 💛🧘‍♂️
Thank you, Elm Street Kidz Club, for bringing me into your wonderful space and for sharing such kind words. I can’t wait to be back with more yoga based fun and mindful movement! 🥳

✋ Morning Meditation: Hand Breathing.

Feeling stressed? Take a minute to pause, breathe, and reset for the week ahead, all you need is your hand!

How to do it:

Hold your left hand out, fingers spread.

With your right index finger, trace the outline of your thumb.

Breathe in as you go up, breathe out as you go down.

Continue around each finger at your own pace, in and out with your breath.

Why it works:

This exercise gives children a visual and tactile way to slow down.

Tracing the hand helps regulate breathing and encourages a calm, steady rhythm.

You can even trace each other’s hands for a gentle connection and shared mindfulness.

Swap hands or try your non-dominant hand for a fresh sensation and added focus.

The more we bring our attention to the present moment, the more we practice mindfulness and the more we practice the better we'll become!

Try it a few times today and notice how it feels. Happy Monday! 💛

Boost & Bloom Mini Moment 💛

Today we’re exploring the Makaton Alphabet, a gentle, playful way to encourage little ones to connect sounds, letters, and meaning. 🤗💛

Why not pick one letter today and try it together? Or make a game by going round the house and signing the initial letter of something and seeing if your child can guess which item you mean.

🔤 Say the sound
🤲 Sign the letter
😊 Celebrate the moment

No pressure, just presence.

Save this for later or try it now, let me know how it goes in the comments

I’m so happy to share this beautiful testimonial from Birdsedge First and Grange Moor Primary where I have had the privilege of teaching yoga and mindfulness to their wonderful students.

Over the past year of teaching, I’ve witnessed firsthand how simple mindfulness tools and movement practices can transform an educational environment helping students feel calmer, more focused and more connected to themselves and others.

It’s always inspiring to see schools prioritizing wellbeing as a foundation for learning. Thank you to the incredible team Birdsedge and Grange Moor for welcoming me so warmly and for your commitment to supporting your students’ mental and emotional health. 💛

If your school or organisation is interested in bringing mindfulness and yoga into your community, I’d love to connect and chat about how we can make that happen.
