Understand you: Mindful Tools for Triggers & Festive Stress

As we enter the festive season, emotions run high, routines shift, and pressures often rise — especially for parents. In this video, I share the powerful practice of “Know Thyself” and how self-awareness can transform not only how we show up for ourselves, but also how we show up for our children, partners, and the wider family.

Using a beautiful metaphor shared by Dr. Wayne Dyer, we explore what comes out of us when we’re squeezed or triggered — and how mindfulness helps us respond with compassion rather than react from overwhelm.

I also guide you through a series of journal prompts to help you reconnect with who you truly are:
✨ Your likes
✨ What lights you up
✨ Your values & beliefs
✨ Your needs
✨ Your boundaries
✨ What you want to come out when you're triggered

This mindful self-connection creates the emotional space to enjoy the festive season with presence, kindness, and calm — even around those who sometimes trigger us.

If you’re a parent wanting to live more mindfully and create a peaceful, connected family life, this one’s for you.

Enjoy life | Feel life | Live life together 💚

Much love,
Carrie
