October 2, 2018

| Anxiety, Depression, Domestic Violence, Inspire, Resources, Rituals, Self-Help

"Everyone agrees it's important to live in the moment, but the problem is how," says Ellen Langer, a psychologist at Harvard and author of Mindfulness. "When people are not in the moment, they're not there to know that they're not there." Overriding the distraction reflex and awakening to the present takes intentionality and practice. Do you struggle to live in the moment? Are you safe and away from abuse but still struggle to stop and smell the flowers? You are...

Why, because of the 3% that do write their goals, less than 1% ever look at them again or often enough to be inspired to make them happen. Helping children set goals now will be the key to goal setting as an adult. These statistics should encourage you to help your children learn to set goals...
