Fun, whimsy + deep trust are the key ingredients in playful mothering. You create a sense of safety for people that allows them to let their guard down and immerse themselves in moments of carefree wonder and joy.

You’re great at helping kids of all ages reconnect with what is elemental and real in life: our senses, our amazing bodies, and our beautiful imaginations.

With all that running around, be sure to take time for real rest to stay connected to your own inner child’s sense of wonder and openness.

Here are simple mindful practices that you can incorporate into daily life that can keep your inner child giggling with silly delight:

• Colouring is a fun and relaxing activity that can help quiet your mind and focus on the present moment.
• Engage in self-care practices such as taking a relaxing bath, getting a massage, or indulging in your favourite hobby. (Try this short practice, 3-Point Check-In, as a way to get an internal weather report, to notice what is happening in your body, heart, and mind in any moment.)
• Use mindful movement practices such as yoga, tai chi, or dance, to cultivate a sense of playfulness and joy in your bodies. These practices can help release tension and stress while also having fun.
• Give yourself permission to be yourself. Playfulness arises naturally when we feel safe, free, and authentically ourselves. (Need a little reminder? Listen to this talk, Loving Ourselves Into Freedom, inside the app.)
