Thank Heavens for Laughter by Marion

Mastery Practice Tool

Our Most Powerful Parenting Tool

Notice the moments when you are asking your children to be an "expectation" you have that you yourself are not addressing. We can model self-growth to our children by being honest with ourselves around our own growth. We can model the following:

• Non-judgment of ourselves when we lose it
• How we pick ourselves up and self correct
• Practicing self-love and acceptance rather than looking to others
• Self care and how we honour our bodies, our intentions and our lives

This is not about being perfect, or living a life of guilt or regret. This is about maintaining our focus on the biggest version of who we are, and being on that journey with no judgment of ourselves. We all make mistakes and fall into the pot holes, but it’s our humour, commitment, and love for ourselves that is our most powerful teaching tool.

Testimonial

Bev's Laughing and Breathing Belly Workshop for Children was one of the best I have attended. She has a gifted ability to gently connect with children and teach and share with them her techniques of belly breathing, rooting, mind vacations and laughter. These techniques soothe and calm them whenever they feel overwhelmed or anxious - be at school, home or before bed time. Whether you have an overwhelmed pre-schooler or a test-anxious pre-teen, Bev's approach works! I love that she gave parents the tools to model and share these fundamentals of meditation with their children. I would encourage families to take her course...your children will thank you and you will benefit from ways to keep yourself calm and allow wisdom in.
