12/02/19 • 27 min
In this episode I share with you ways to teach our children about mindfulness and gratitude, and I explore some personal experiences where I have been able to use them as a teaching opportunity. It is not necessary to make many changes but one small change a day can have a huge impact on others. A good rule of thumb can be; Did you do something to help another person smile? Our children are small but they see our behaviors and our habits therefore, if we create positive ones we are impacting our community and ensuring we are leaving it better than we found it.
