As adults, many of us have planners or calendars that include appointments, work commitments, and to-do lists that are miles long. But how often do we include scheduling in time for self-care practices? How often do we model self-care for our children?
“I can’t handle one more task…”
Since the pandemic began, finding time to care for ourselves has become more stressful.Now more than ever it is important we make a habit of prioritizing self-care for ourselves and the children we love. Why not create a short, formal routine for happier, healthier mornings? Doing so will demonstrate the importance of taking care of our health prior to starting school or work. Not only does a mindful morning routine of self-care activities help adults and children feel better, it helps us perform better as well!“Self-care teaches us to be kind to ourselves. The benefits to both kids and adults are profound: such as increased self-knowledge, confidence, and better decision-making skills”.

Routine = sustainable = new healthy habits = :)
Kids benefit greatly from the daily routines they have at school. Wellness routines extend that structure into the home. They can be taught by parents, caregivers, clinicians, teachers, whether virtually or in person.The more we practice something, the easier it becomes to do. We can build a sustainable morning routine with the children we love by spending just a few minutes each morning. Will you commit to implementing a special, healthy start to the day before the morning bell rings? Before you dive into a session or activity? Will you commit to challenging the children in your life to start a mindful morning ritual at home to start their day off right?
