I’ll be taking the week off from the social media fest we all know and love (and sometimes don’t love so much) — to enjoy some deeper presence with the fullness of my life’s blessings. My daughter Eve is in the air as I write this, returning from a 6-month expat artist’s adventure in Berlin. Dear friends here in my village are poised for some relaxed Thanksgiving enjoyment, and I’ll be cooking up a storm. (To me this is one of the great things about Thanksgiving: cooking is the only thing to do, as opposed to getting an entire day of work done and ALSO cooking. A day devoted to cooking…and eating — what could be better?!) My sister-in-law Anne is planning an excursion up to my mountain cottage for some post-Thanksgiving relaxation & leftovers.
I plan to spend time on the (good ol’-fashioned) phone over the next few days connecting with friends & family without the usual “tick-tock” time pressure that busy-life-as-usual tends to exert.
My wish for you is the opportunity to be present to YOUR blessings, with the gift of a lightened agenda. A pause in the typically daily To-Do roster. A nice, long thanks-giving breath.
Catch you on the flip side of thanks!
Blessings,
Marcy

How in the World Do We Lose the Stress and Loosen Up??!
The more calm and confident we can be as parents, the more our children “catch our calm” and things go much better all the way around. And, as one of my favorite parent educator / psychologists, Lawrence Cohen, points out, our kids really need us to loosen up and be more playful and easy-going!
Problem is, there is a massive epidemic of UNcalm and UNconfidence out there amongst parents. This puts a HUGE damper on “playful” and “easy-going”! I’ve decided it’s time to offer some healing balm & helpful tools, at my FREE TELESEMINAR:
