Spring 2008
Breath deeply. Teach your kids to breath deeply. Take five minutes to watch and feel your breath. Meditation does not need to take two hours while sitting in a lotus position. Teach your children to begin slowly, to do what they can, and to notice their breath.
Winter 2008
Let the winter months bring you inside to warm your hearts. Light candles and make a pot of soup together as a family. Live simply for one day.
Fall 2007
Find time to question and engage with your children. Schedule it right along with soccer practice, if only once a month.
Summer 2007
Walk in nature and find divinity.
Spring 2007
Set a time and a place to talk about spirituality with your children. Be creative about how and when you do this. Turn off all the lights and light candles instead! Sit on pillows. Move to the kitchen floor. Creating a new environment will entice the kids to participate.
