"When a child is upset, logic often won’t work until we have responded to the right brain’s emotional needs.” – Dr. Dan Siegel
Guiding our children through life`s ups and downs is a heartfelt journey. Dr. Dan Siegel`s words remind us that when emotions run deep, logic takes a back seat.
In times of divorce or separation, understanding our children’s emotional needs become even more crucial. By acknowledging and addressing their feelings, we lay the foundation for healing and resilience.

This week we celebrate National Relaxation Day! Relaxing helps keep us healthy, in both body and mind, and allows us to recover from the everyday stresses that life throws at us.
Here are a few ideas to help decompress:
• Mindful Breathing: Practice deep breathing exercises to calm your mind and reduce stress. Try the 4-7-8 technique: Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 7 seconds and exhale for 8 seconds.
• Nature Connection: Spend time outdoors in nature, whether it`s a walk in the park, a hike in the woods, or simply sitting in a garden. Nature has a soothing effect on the mind and can help reduce anxiety.
• Digital Detox: Take a break from screens and social media. Unplugging for a few hours can significantly reduce stress and promote relaxation.
• Creative Expression: Engage in a creative activity like drawing, coloring, writing, or playing music. Creative expression can be therapeutic and help you relax.
• Read a Book: Escape into a good book that you`ve been meaning to read. Reading can help take your mind off stress and transport you to a different world.
• Listen to Relaxing Music: Play calming music or sounds of nature to create a serene environment and promote relaxation.
• Spend Time with Loved Ones: Surround yourself with positive and supportive people who make you feel at ease and happy.
Remember, relaxation is a vital part of maintaining overall well-being, so make time for it not only on National Relaxation Day but regularly in your life. Happy relaxing!

What happens to the family pet during separation and divorce?
The question of what happens to our beloved pets during separation is a complex and emotional one. It`s challenging because finding the objectively best solution for the pet may bring sadness to the adults and children involved. While it might seem simple to suggest getting a new puppy, we understand that it can be insensitive to passionate pet lovers.
There are no easy or one-size-fits-all answers to this dilemma—it varies for each family. Remember to approach this topic with empathy, considering the unique circumstances of every situation. 🐾

While we might not want to think about it just yet… the new school year will be here before we know it!
For newly separated parents or those with growing children, it may raise some questions. You may be wondering how or if to divide costs for things like backpacks, lunches, and running shoes, plus any extracurriculars your child participates in.
Parenting plans usually evolve as your children grow up. In fact, it’s likely that you will need to make changes a few times to accommodate the needs of your children.
Is it time to review your Parenting Agreement? Get in touch. We are happy to help.

Parenting is a journey filled with questions, challenges, and endless learning. When it comes to this incredible role, no single person holds all the answers. However, there are steps you can take to be the best parent you can be!
Here are 10 keys to effective parenting:
1. Prioritize self-healing: Take the time to address your own emotional well-being, allowing you to live your life independently without burdening your children.
2. Embrace maturity: Regardless of your feelings, remember that as co-parents, you are the responsible adults entrusted with caring for your children and acting in their best interests.
3. Listen attentively: Take the time to truly understand and empathize with your children`s needs.
4. Respect each other`s parenting abilities and love for your children.
5. Find a fair division of parenting time: Explore various options to ensure your children still feel connected to both parents.
6. Embrace differences: Accept and appreciate each other`s contrasting traits, whether it`s dietary preferences, parenting styles, or personal habits.
7. Direct communication about your children: Discuss matters concerning your children directly with each other, avoiding the need to involve them in adult conversations.
8. Break traditional gender roles: Expand your horizons and engage in activities not typically associated with your gender role.
9. Embrace change: Recognize that change is an inevitable part of life and be prepared to adapt accordingly.
10. Foster long-term co-parenting: Understand that co-parenting is a lifelong commitment. Prepare to navigate special occasions, such as holidays, birthdays, and graduations, with minimal stress, and encourage your extended families to do the same.
By following these 10 keys, you can foster a harmonious and supportive environment for your children`s well-being and development.

"When little people are overwhelmed by big emotions, it`s our job to share our calm, not join their chaos." - L.R. Knost
In the whirlwind of our children`s intense emotions, let`s remember our role as parents: to provide a steady anchor amidst their stormy seas. By staying calm and composed, we can guide them through challenging moments with love and understanding.

Coparenting? 😕 Where do we start?
📣 Before you make any promises or agreements, it`s crucial to seek good legal advice. Far too often, people commit to things that are difficult or impossible to achieve within the legal system, leading to unintended consequences.
Instead, consider this approach: "I may not have all the answers yet, but I`m committed to collaborating with you to ensure our children receive the best from both of us. Let`s work together to find a solution that benefits both of us and if needed, seek assistance along the way."
Remember to prioritize cooperation and understanding for the well-being of your children! 🤝
