Back by popular demand and following the success of last year’s’ #31daysofparentalselfcare challenge, it’s almost time to fill our emotional cups for early 2020.
Beginning on 1st January until 31st January 2020, every day I’ll be sharing something I did to look after myself or a parenting challenge I managed in a ‘good enough’ way. I would so much love you to join me.
To be a calm, loving and empathic parent you need to take good care of yourself. Parental self-care is about recognising our feelings and taking the time we need to restore physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and social balance.
Because children learn their sense of worth from watching you, how AMAZING would it be if they saw you do something for yourself every day no matter how small?
Last year there was a great response with lots of ideas from parents ranging from exercising, spending time with people who fill you up, creativity, relaxation, dropping housework, digital detoxes, even a shower without a child audience!🤣
So from Wednesday 1st January 2020, I would love you to share your self-care snippets from your day using the hashtag #31daysofparentalselfcare on my Dr. Malie Coyne Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/drmaliecoyne or on Twitter or Instagram.
WHO’S IN?!!!
P.S. I would really appreciate you helping me to spread the word by sharing this post so lots of parents can join in the challenge ☕️
I wish you and yours a peaceful and Happy Christmas.
Love, Malie xxx
