Whew! I have had a busy week being “Grandma!” I love it when Charlie walks in and yells, “maMA!” Or when I see a new video of Sarah and her sweet eyes witnessing the world for the first time.
My grandchildren remind me that every relationship we have is just more motivation to become a healthier version of ourselves, because our lives become a literal visual aid, especially where children are concerned!
So how is your self-talk sounding? Did you take the “listen-to-yourself challenge” this past week? What did you discover? Are you loving and encouraging yourself at every turn? Or are you saying things to yourself that are so critical that you would never say them to someone else?
I believe that if you are saying those negatives to yourself, you are in essence saying them to your children, because they come out in your beliefs and your beliefs show up in your behavior… and all the while your children and grandchildren are mirroring those thoughts, beliefs and actions. Literally. Their neurons are mirroring yours.
SO! There’s no time to lose in getting a handle on the on-going conversation in your head!
I hope this week’
s video blog will be helpful to you in taking a baby step toward gaining the positive outcomes you desire, in your life and in the lives of your family members.
My love and blessings to you,
Jacque
