 Welcome, beautiful parents. I'm so glad you're here today, taking this moment just for yourself. I know parenting can feel like navigating a constant storm - especially with the unique challenges of spring 2025, where schedules seem more packed and tensions run higher than ever.

Take a deep breath with me right now. Feel the air moving into your lungs, soft and smooth like a gentle wave. As you exhale, imagine releasing any pressure or expectation you're carrying. This moment is yours.

Today, I want to share a practice I call the "Emotional Lighthouse" technique. Think of yourself as a steady, calm beacon for your children, radiating warmth and stability even when emotional waves crash around you.

Start by placing one hand on your heart. Feel its steady rhythm. This is your center, your inner calm. When your child experiences big emotions - whether it's frustration, anger, or overwhelm - you can return to this place of groundedness.

Imagine your breath as a soft, warm light spreading from your heart. With each inhale, this light grows brighter. With each exhale, it extends outward, creating a protective, nurturing space around you and your child.

When challenging moments arise - a tantrum, a conflict, a moment of resistance - pause. Take three conscious breaths. Remember the lighthouse: you're not trying to stop the storm, just provide a steady, reliable presence.

Practice witnessing your child's emotions without getting swept away. See their feelings as temporary weather passing through, not a permanent state. Your calm becomes their anchor.

As we close, I invite you to carry this lighthouse image with you today. When you feel triggered or overwhelmed, return to your breath. Remember: you are more powerful and centered than any emotional storm.
