🌼 A Teddy Bear Picnic Ending 🌼

Today we closed our therapeutic journey with a Teddy Bear Picnic.

Endings are tough — for kids, and for therapists. They come with relief, sadness, and that strange little bubble in your chest when something meaningful reaches its final chapter.

The teddy bears sat with us… quiet, steady, almost like witnesses to everything we’ve worked through. Their presence softened the room, reminding us that we didn’t have to face the goodbye alone.

Children can do hard things.
What’s truly hard is doing hard things alone.

Today, we didn’t.
We ended together — with teddy bears, with shared memories, and with a sense of belonging that made the goodbye just a little easier.

🌿 Mindfulness Dag 3: Oksitosien-saterdag

Vandag is Saterdag en 15 minute was te min. Ek kies vandag vir oksitosien, daardie heerlike “sosiale sappie” wat in ons liggame vloei wanneer ons eg verbind.

Oksitosien is bekend as die ‘bonding hormone’ of ‘love hormone’; dit word vrygestel tydens aanraking, lag, spel, of selfs ‘n diep gesprek waar iemand regtig luister. Dis die biochemiese basis van binding/attachment. Dit bou vertroue, kalmeer die senuweestelsel en verlaag stresvlakke. Navorsing wys dat mense met hoë oksitosienvlakke meer empaties, vredevoller en selfs fisies gesonder is.

Ek het my dosis gekry met games saam met my seuntjie, ‘n fliek met my dogter, en later gaan daar nog rugby wees saam met manlief. Dis nie net tyd saam nie, dis teenwoordigheid, wedersydse aandag, en die klein oomblikke wat ons brein herinner: Ek bestaan. Ek is lewendig. Ek het lief.

Mindful uitdaging:
Soek vandag vir ‘n oomblik van opregte konneksie. Sit jou foon neer. Kyk iemand in die oë. Lag saam. Dis nie net mooi vir die hart nie, dis chemie vir die siel 🩵💙

Wise words from a dear friend encouraging moms all over the world🌈🌱🙌🏻

When your little one stands close to you or reach for you in distress or uncertainty, something beautiful is happening beneath the surface.

Your child’s nervous system is still learning what safety feels like. They borrow your calm to build their own. That’s why they come closer when they’re unsure or overwhelmed — your voice, your scent, your heartbeat, even your breathing rhythm all signal safety.

But here’s the part anxious moms often forget: you don’t have to be perfectly calm for this to work.

Even when your anxiety hums in the background, your presence, your effort to breathe through it, still teaches them how to regulate.

You’re not failing when you feel anxious — you’re modeling resilience in real time. 💛
