“Parenting is similar to the breath, a lot of expansion and contraction.”
“When you change how you breathe, you can change how you feel.”
“Having good posture is important for the mind and body connection.”
“When your goal is to get children to sit quietly and still you need to let them move a little bit.”
“Making children aware of their feelings is a lifelong tool to help them cope with bigger feelings.”
“Everything is a phase.”
