I have never liked bed time. My boys always have energy and seem to be bouncing off the walls. Recognizing my kids are my mirror shows me that all the energy may not be be physically but emotionally of all the things I am running through my brain I could be doing instead of being present with them and relaxing getting ready for bed. All the thoughts bouncing around in my brain what happens when we are done that I need to hurry and do.
Now knowing my mirror, I know I can take a deep breathe and be present. Recongnize I did what I could that day and its enough. I can relax, slow down, be present and call. Listen to my body. They will reflect that.
I so love this. I have wondered many times why an I reacting old childhood things in the present why are they playing out. They are reflecting what I havent taken time to see. Ahh ha moments for me 💜
