In times of collective stress, self-care can feel optionalβor even selfish. But for parents, it's vital. Itβs how we protect our nervous systems and stay calm and present with our children.

In 2026, I will bring my mind back to the present moment. I will take in fleeting moments with my children, even if itβs picking them up from school, because even that wonβt be there forever. I will be conscious of what I can control and what I canβt, and let go of the latter. #2026 #NewYear
