The Cure for Parent Burnout with Laura Markham, PhD     

Laughing together is a wonderful way to strengthen the bond between parents and children. Spending quality one-on-one time with our children, giving them our undivided attention, helps us reconnect with them. During this time, it's important to let go of our own agenda and simply love and appreciate our child for who they are. Doing the inner work to let go of unmet expectations and grieving them is crucial for moving forward. Taking care of ourselves is essential to avoid burnout, and reducing demands while increasing rewards can help manage parental stress. Practicing mindfulness and maintaining a positive attitude also contribute to a more peaceful parenting experience.
