Hey, Just Breathe!
How hard is it to deal with the stresses and strains of family transition? Being a strong, centered parent in the midst of divorce or separation is difficult. You want to make good decisions for your children, and for your life. But there are challenges and distractions right now. In my experience, taking a little time for self-nurturing is critical. Steal some time for you! Take care of yourself. You know how when you’re receiving the safety instructions prior to take off, the flight attendant reminds you to put the oxygen mask on yourself first? To really “be there” for your family, you have to be there for yourself. Anna Malick, the pop singer, had it right with her song: “Just Breathe”. So, do it!
