This is a message,
The universe is telling you,
Hi, waking up, I am here with you.
Abandon your worries and fears,
Abandon any of your judgement,
Abandon any of your blames,
Abandon your limited beliefs,
Abandon your effort to prove yourself,
Abandon all of your identities,
Come here,
The darkness of scared womb center,
No matter you are a woman or man, or either or both,
Naked,
Pure essence, vulnerable and infinite,
Dream,
A beautiful new birth is coming!
When future generations look back, they might be stunned — or even amused — by how we used to raise and educate children.
Imagine their reaction when they learn that students had to sit in classrooms for nearly 20 years, from preschool through college, to learn how to behave, study for tests, and be judged by grades. All of that just to collect degrees and certificates for jobs that often left their hearts unfulfilled.
What a long, rigid training period during the most fun, expansive, and imaginative years of life!
If children were truly given free choice, what would they do?
They would play.
Play is not the opposite of learning — it is the purest form of it.
Play in nature.
Play with bugs, plants, and trees.
Play with animals, rivers, wind, and sunlight.
Play with friends, games, stories, and ideas.
In play, kids are present, relaxed, and focused — the very states of mind most adults spend years trying to recover. When there’s no pressure to “perform” or return to a schedule, their curiosity naturally awakens. Questions arise. Passions bloom. Imagination soars.
They learn because they love to learn.
And in this new education, teachers — both human and AI — become guides, responding to each child’s unique rhythm, needs, and gifts. Learning is no longer one-size-fits-all; it’s one-heart-fits-one.
The foundation of this new system is not achievement, but authenticity.
Every being is a unique expression of life, a piece of the great whole — worthy and loved unconditionally. There is no comparison, no ranking, no external measurement of worth.
Children grow up knowing who they are, not just what they can do. They learn to trust their inner voice, to honor both their light and shadow, and to express their truth freely.
This is real education — education of the soul.
When imagination is free, creation becomes joy.
Kids will use their natural curiosity to make art, design new games, build treehouses, compose songs, imagine starships, and even explore new universes in virtual or quantum ways.
Creation replaces competition.
Wonder replaces fear.
Purpose replaces pressure.
Every child becomes a creator of worlds — not a follower of rules.
In this new world, connection is the heartbeat of learning.
Children will understand that everything is interconnected — the air they breathe, the earth beneath their feet, every person, plant, and planet.
They will learn freedom not as “I do what I want,” but as “I honor my truth without harming yours.”
Empathy, compassion, and respect become the natural languages of humanity.
The curriculum of the future won’t just teach math, language, or history. It will include the inner technologies of the human spirit:
🧘 Meditation – to know the self beyond thought
🌬️ Breathwork – to balance energy and emotion
💬 Heart-based communication – to speak truth with kindness
🌠 Manifestation – to consciously co-create with intention
🪞 Multidimensional exploration – to sense life beyond the physical
🌀 Teleportation and holographic learning – expanding access to any place or knowledge instantly
The “school” will not be a building — it will be the planet itself, the stars, and the infinite inner universe within each soul.
This new education won’t just raise smarter children — it will raise wiser humans.
Humans who can balance technology with consciousness.
Humans who remember their connection with nature.
Humans who live by joy, curiosity, and love.
The transition has already begun. Every parent who lets their child follow curiosity, every teacher who allows wonder to lead, every school that values emotional growth as much as logic — they are building the bridge to this new world.
And one day, when future generations look back, they’ll smile — grateful that we dared to imagine something better.
Reimagining Education and Parenting through Wholeness
In many ancient traditions and inner teachings, the human being is not just a body with a brain, but a radiant system of mind, will, and heart — a sacred trinity that, when unified, becomes a compass for a life of clarity, power, and love.
But today, in most modern education and parenting paradigms, this trinity is fractured. We raise children to sharpen the mind, obey rules, and suppress emotions — often inverting the natural order of inner wisdom. The result? Children grow up disconnected from their inner compass, unsure of who they are or why they do what they do.
It’s time to remember.
Modern education is obsessed with the mind, but not in its wholeness. It trains the thinking mind to memorize, analyze, and achieve — often at the expense of creativity, curiosity, and self-awareness.
Children are rewarded for correct answers, not for deep questions. They learn how to solve problems but not how to understand themselves. The intuitive, imaginative, and reflective aspects of the mind are often labeled "distractions" rather than strengths.
The mind, without heart and will, becomes a machine — brilliant but blind.
In many parenting models, will is either suppressed (through excessive control) or forced (through pressure to perform). Children are told what to do, when to do it, and how — often without being asked what they feel or want.
This teaches children to disconnect from their inner authority and ignore their inner yes or no. As adults, they may struggle with discipline, boundaries, or direction — not because they lack will, but because they never learned how to know and trust their will.
A healthy will is not about stubbornness or obedience. It is about intention, inner clarity, and authentic choice.
Heart — the realm of emotion, connection, and intuition — is often misunderstood. In some systems, it's ignored ("Don't be emotional"), and in others, overprotected ("Don't let them feel hurt").
Yet the heart is the compass of the whole being. It tells us what matters, what resonates, what needs to heal. It is where empathy, purpose, and self-love are born.
When the heart is dismissed, children learn to distrust their feelings. They become either emotionally numb or emotionally overwhelmed, because they were never taught to navigate their inner landscape.
When we emphasize the mind and neglect the will and heart, we raise children who are:
Smart but insecure
Obedient but disconnected
Sensitive but lost
They may achieve success outwardly but suffer inwardly, constantly seeking external approval, unsure of who they are when the world isn’t watching.
Imagine a child who learns not just to think, but to feel what’s true, and to choose from their own center. A child who knows how to:
Use the mind as a tool to explore, create, and discern
Follow the will to act with purpose and power
Listen to the heart to stay aligned with love and truth
This is not fantasy — it is remembering. It is how children naturally begin — whole, wise, and powerful — before systems of fragmentation train them otherwise.
Let us create spaces — in homes and classrooms — where:
Mind is honored as a builder, not a dictator
Will is guided, not broken
Heart is heard, not hidden
Let us ask children what they feel, not just what they know.
Let us invite them to act from choice, not just command.
Let us show them how to think with the heart and act with the will — in unity.
Because true intelligence is not measured by test scores. It is measured by how a human being thinks clearly, loves deeply, and acts from their inner truth.
You give birth to your child, your child also gives birth to you. You bond as a group/family to learn and evolve together. It is not top down, not control, rules, but constant changing dynamic learning process.
🌌 What Is the Higher Self (and How Do I Hear It)?
There’s a part of you that isn’t stressed about your to-do list.
It doesn’t need validation, doesn’t compare, doesn’t rush.
It knows.
It sees.
It loves—without condition.
That’s your Higher Self.
The Higher Self is you—but expanded.
It’s your most loving, wise, limitless aspect.
If your day-to-day self is a puzzle piece, the Higher Self sees the whole puzzle.
It remembers your purpose. It’s the part of you that already is what you’re trying to become.
The Higher Self doesn’t scream.
It whispers.
It won’t say:
“You’re messing this up.”
It gently offers:
“You are learning.”
“Try again, with love.”
“You don’t have to prove anything.”
“You already belong.”
Here are a few ways to listen more clearly:
Stillness
A quiet walk. A few deep breaths. A moment with your hand on your heart.
Journaling
Write your question, then let your Higher Self answer. You’ll know when it’s real—it feels calm, kind, clear.
Compassion Check
If the voice you’re hearing is judgmental or frantic, that’s not your Higher Self.
Ask: “What would love say right now?”
Create Space
Your Higher Self speaks in the space between the noise.
Less phone. More nature. Less shoulds. More wonder.
When you parent, teach, or lead from your Higher Self:
You respond instead of react
You create safety instead of control
You see the child as already whole, not a problem to fix
And most beautifully—you teach your children to trust their own inner wisdom, too.
Your Higher Self isn’t somewhere far away.
It’s always here. It’s the still voice behind the noise.
You don’t have to become someone else to reach it.
You just have to remember who you already are.
Do you know why it’s so hard to break a "bad" habit? Because the moment you label it as bad, you attach negativity to it. This creates resistance—you either try to avoid it or forcefully get rid of it. But the mind operates on energy. Whether something is positive or negative, the more attention you give it, the more energy it receives—like feeding it fuel. So instead of disappearing, it grows. The harder you try to push it away, the stronger it holds on.
Any repeated tendency to do something—even when you don’t truly prefer it—signals a misalignment. Misalignment creates a sense of incompleteness, like an empty space within you. That emptiness seeks to be filled, whether with food, substances, or other external distractions.
To truly change this pattern, the first step is acceptance. Become aware of it, because any feeling of discomfort or incompleteness is an invitation to explore your deeper needs—your soul’s true calling. Suppose you tend to overeat. Instead of feeling guilty, honor the experience. Embrace yourself with kindness. Acknowledge your desire to eat and gently ask yourself: I hear you. What do you truly need right now? Rest? Understanding? Love? What are you trying to soothe with food?
A simple pause, a deep breath, can shift your state of being and bring a glimmer of awareness. Over time, your real needs will surface, and with that awareness, you may feel even the slightest sense of relief. And remember—any small shift, even if it happens only in your mind, is a profound change. Celebrate it! Cheer for yourself, hug yourself, or express your joy in any way that feels right. This acknowledgment strengthens your state of being and naturally guides you toward a more positive path.
You are not battling a “bad” habit—you are meeting a messenger, offering you insight into yourself. Be grateful for its message. It may lead you to a clearer understanding of who you truly want to be. And as you embrace that awareness, you will step into a new version of yourself—one with ease and love.
"Lumina is neither good nor bad," she would tell the children who gathered around her. "She simply flows. And just like the river, emotions are energy—they need to move, not be blocked."
One day, a young boy named Kai came to Mira with tears in his eyes. "I feel so angry, but I know anger is bad," he said.
Mira shook her head gently. "Who told you anger is bad?"
"Everyone says so. They say I shouldn't feel it."
Mira led Kai to the river’s edge and picked up a smooth, round stone. "Look at this rock. It has two sides, just like everything in life—just like day and night, just like inhale and exhale. Energy flows in both directions. Would you call night bad? Or exhaling wrong?"
Kai shook his head. "No… I guess not."
"Then why call anger bad? Anger is a messenger, just like joy. It tells you something about yourself. If you block it, it's like trying to dam the river. It will build up, and one day, it will break free in ways you cannot control. But if you let it flow, it can teach you something."
Kai thought about this. "So… what do I do with my anger?"
Mira smiled. "Express it. Move your body, dance, sing, shout into the wind. Let it flow like Lumina. And then, when you feel it has moved through you, ask yourself: What did my anger want to tell me? What belief do I hold that made me feel this way?"
Kai tried it. He ran along the riverbank, jumping and shouting until he felt lighter. Then he sat by Mira and said, "I was angry because I thought my friend betrayed me. But maybe I was just afraid of losing him. Maybe I believed friendship should never have conflicts."
Mira nodded. "And now you can decide—do you want to hold onto that belief, or do you want to see friendship in a new way?"
Kai looked at the river, watching it flow freely under the open sky. "I want to let it flow."
From that day on, Kai no longer feared his emotions. He learned to listen to them, to express them, and to discover what they had to teach him. And just like the great river Lumina, he embraced the natural flow of life—without judgment, without resistance, simply moving forward with the current of his true self.
Parenting is one of the most profound journeys of life, and conscious parenting takes it to the next level. If you aspire to be a "Super Parent," embracing the AAA SMILE approach can transform your connection with your child and create a harmonious family environment. AAA SMILE parenting is built on three A’s and six essential parenting principles, forming a foundation of love, understanding, and joy.
Allow – Let kids be themselves. Children thrive when they feel accepted for who they are. Instead of shaping them into what we think they should be, give them the freedom to explore, express, and evolve into their authentic selves.
Acknowledge – Recognize what they do. Every effort, small or big, deserves acknowledgment. By doing so, we nurture their confidence and self-worth.
Appreciate – See your child as a divine being, another aspect of source on its evolution journey who choose you to be an important accompany. Remove the mindset of you know more and you need to teach them lessons. Hold the intention of your preferred state, interaction, and results. Appreciate and admire your child on the journey of becoming their best version. Admire their resilience, creativity, and courage, celebrating progress rather than perfection.
S – Self-care first: As parents, we cannot pour from an empty cup. Prioritizing self-care ensures we stay balanced, emotionally regulated, and present for our children.
M – Model positive behaviors: Children learn more from what we do than what we say. By embodying kindness, patience, and resilience, we become role models for them.
I – Inspire: Instead of controlling, guide and inspire children through meaningful conversations, curiosity, and encouragement.
L – Love unconditionally and Learn together : Nothing powerful than unconditional love, which sets kids free to flourish to be their unique beings and learn from the journey with parents together.
E – Enjoy the moment: Parenting is an adventure! Play, laugh, and cherish time together, making life fun and joyful.
From the moment we are born, we are free, abundant, and natural manifesters. We come into this world with limitless potential, unburdened by self-doubt or fear. But as we grow, external influences—societal expectations, family pressures, and personal experiences—begin shaping our self-perception. When we unconsciously believe we are not worthy, we unknowingly limit ourselves. We avoid opportunities, second-guess our abilities, and even attract people who do not value us. The way we treat ourselves forms the foundation of how others will treat us. Our relationship with ourselves is the basis for every other relationship in our lives.
When we fail to embrace our true selves, self-denial often manifests in unhealthy ways—complaining about circumstances, blaming others for our unhappiness, or feeling trapped in situations that don’t align with our highest good. Without self-love, we become prisoners of external validation, seeking approval while silencing our authentic selves. But when we fully accept who we are—including our talents and our weaknesses—we reclaim our freedom.
Self-love is not about perfection; it is about embracing all aspects of ourselves with compassion. It means acknowledging mistakes as part of growth rather than sources of shame. When we stand firm in our truth, we become unaffected by the judgments of others. We step into our power, knowing that external opinions do not define us—our self-belief does.
One of the greatest obstacles to self-love is negative self-talk. The way we speak to ourselves internally shapes our self-image and confidence. When we constantly criticize ourselves—telling ourselves we’re not good enough, not talented enough, or not worthy—we reinforce limiting beliefs that hold us back. Replacing self-criticism with self-compassion is essential. Instead of saying, "I always mess up," reframe it as, "I am learning and growing with every experience." Practicing positive affirmations and self-kindness helps reshape our mindset and fosters a loving relationship with ourselves.
Self-care is an essential practice of self-love. When we prioritize activities that nourish our mind, body, and soul, we reinforce our own worth. This can include activities like meditation, exercise, spending time in nature, engaging in hobbies, or simply taking breaks when needed. Setting boundaries, saying no when necessary, and surrounding ourselves with positive influences are also crucial self-care practices. By making self-care a priority, we affirm to ourselves that we are valuable and deserving of love and care.
If children learn self-love early, they grow up to be balanced, motivated, and assertive individuals. When they are encouraged to embrace who they truly are, they develop a strong foundation for resilience and inner peace. Here’s how we can foster self-love in children:
Give Them the Freedom to Be Themselves
Children need space to express their individuality. Encourage them to explore their interests, dress how they feel comfortable, and make choices that resonate with their hearts rather than social expectations.
Avoid Judging Them by Social Standards
Every child has a unique path. Rather than comparing them to others or pushing them toward conventional success, celebrate their journey. If a child prefers art over academics or sports over music, honor their choices without bias.
Teach That Mistakes Are Growth Opportunities
Rather than scolding children for making mistakes, help them see errors as stepping stones to learning. This shift in mindset fosters confidence and a positive attitude toward challenges.
Value Authenticity Over Approval
Encourage children to be true to themselves rather than seeking validation from others. Teach them that being authentic is more important than fitting in.
Be a Role Model of Self-Love
Children learn by example. Show them what self-love looks like—speak kindly about yourself, set healthy boundaries, and pursue your passions without fear of judgment.
One powerful way to cultivate self-love is through a simple daily practice. Try standing in front of a mirror each morning and saying three positive affirmations about yourself. These could be statements like, "I am worthy of love and success," "I embrace my uniqueness," or "I am enough just as I am." Writing in a self-love journal, where you list things you appreciate about yourself each day, can also help reinforce a positive self-image. The more we practice affirming our worth, the stronger our self-love becomes.
The truth is, we are free the moment we choose to be. We are not bound by societal expectations, past failures, or the opinions of others. True freedom comes from embracing who we are—fully and unapologetically. When we teach children (and remind ourselves) to love who we are, we unlock the power to live with joy, abundance, and authenticity.
The journey of self-love is ongoing, but every step toward embracing ourselves creates a world where we are not just surviving but thriving. When we stand in our truth, we inspire others to do the same. And that is the true power of self-love.
As a teacher, I have followed a unique and unconventional path.
I earned my Ph.D. in sustainable agriculture and pursued postdoctoral research at Nanjing University and UC Davis for three years. After the birth of my second son, I chose to become a stay-at-home mom, dedicating six years to raising my two sons. This period was precious, filled with beautiful memories. During those years, I explored my interests in psychology, parenting, mind science, and personal development, almost forgetting about the necessity of a career. Then, my family returned to China, and I resumed research at Tongji University in Shanghai.
Although I was productive at work, I increasingly felt unfulfilled and even depressed. Two years later, in 2016, I returned to the U.S. and began teaching science for the Panda preschool class. This experience refreshed me and reignited my curiosity. I then became an associate teacher for the Panda class, teaching for two hours a day—those two hours became the happiest part of my day. When I was with the children, I felt transformed—active, imaginative, creative, and playful. At middle age, I made what seemed like a crazy decision: I embraced a low-paid, entry-level teaching job because it simply felt right. (Sigh! When will society truly recognize the importance of preschool years?) I decided to continue as a teacher.
After completing my preservice training for a teaching credential, I became the head teacher for the Dragons kindergarten class. That year was the most unbelievable of my life—my first year as a full-time teacher, transitioning from in-person teaching before March to online teaching for the remainder of the school year due to COVID. To me, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. With the pandemic, many conferences, institutions, and museums opened their resources for free. I attended several online conferences that I wouldn't have known about otherwise. I became a sponge, absorbing all kinds of knowledge and, fortunately, connecting with the "mycorrhizal network" of the teaching field. My kindergarteners were my angels, inspiring me to create interactive and diverse learning experiences during those challenging times.
With Dragons and Owls at Peregrine School, I faced both the most challenging and the most fascinating experiences—designing adaptive and progressive lessons that aligned with students' interests, the natural and cultural environment. Guided by SOAR (Science, Outdoor, Art, Responsibility), our curricula were rich and integrative. Often, we entered a flow state, exploring different ways to solve problems, experimenting, making art, singing, communicating with bugs and worms, cooking, and enjoying stories together.
I love kindergarteners! They are playful, curious, imaginative, flexible, and deeply connected. However, I observed that even at this young age, children had already formed mindsets—belief systems and attitudes about themselves, others, learning, and the world. Unfortunately, while we focus on managing behaviors, we often overlook these invisible mindsets. Many of these beliefs persist into adulthood, and limiting beliefs such as "I am not good enough," "I am not good at math," or "I must fit in to be liked and accepted" disempower students and hinder their full potential.
Since junior high, I have been fascinated by how humans learn and change. My studies in yoga and my experiences with students have led me to realize that science alone cannot answer my deepest questions. I have expanded my exploration beyond science and educational theories. Over the past few years, I have pursued extensive learning, including:
Social and Emotional Learning Foundations Course – UC Berkeley School of Social Welfare & University Extension, August-December 2024
Cultivating Connection: Mindfulness, Gratitude, and Awe – Greater Good Science Center, UC Berkeley, September-December 2024
The Awakened Schools Institute – Collaborative for Spirituality in Education, Teachers College, Columbia University, August-December 2023
Growing Whole Children in the Garden – UC Davis Continuing and Professional Education, 2021
Teacher Credentialing Preservice Program (Multiple Subject) – Rex and Margaret Fortune School of Education, 2019
Teaching Character and Creating Positive Classrooms – Relay Graduate School of Education, 2014
Hatha Yoga (Upa Yoga, Angamardana, Surya Kriya, Yogasanas, and Bhuta Shuddhi), Inner Engineering (Shambhavi Mahamudra Kriya), Bhava Spandana program, Shoonya meditation and Shakti Chalana Kriya – Isha Foundation (2017-2024)
Rise Summit – Tony Robbins, 2024
Rewire Your Brain – Dr. Joe Dispenza, 2023
Limitless – Jim Kwik, 2023
Channeled Teachings from Higher Dimensional Beings – Bashar (Darryl Anka), Hathors and Arcturians (Tom Kenyon), Ryokah (Tyler Ellison), Pleiadians (Wendy Kennedy), 2023-present
Paradigm Shift – Proctor Gallagher Institute, 2017
Through these experiences, I have undergone profound transformation and increased consciousness. I believe that humans are limitless and possess incredible superpowers—if we are willing to shift our mindset and update our beliefs about what is possible. By doing so, we can create not only a fulfilling life for ourselves but also a harmonious, joyful, and abundant society on this beautiful Earth.
The journey is the destination—true for both life and education!
Have you ever come across conflicting parenting theories?
With so many theories—some even contradicting each other—parents often feel lost, struggling to find the right balance. Yet childhood is irreversible; once a moment is missed or a mistake is made, there is no way to rewind time.
In reality, no single parenting theory, perspective, or advice applies universally. Once applied in different families, each takes on a unique flavor and effect. Every person perceives and implements ideas through their own lens, leading to vastly different results from the same piece of advice.
Take reading to children as an example. Some parents consistently read aloud every day, creating a joyful and immersive atmosphere. Their children naturally become drawn to books. Even if a child occasionally loses interest, the parents continue reading for their own enjoyment, making books a part of daily life. In this relaxed environment, the child is more likely to develop a love for reading. On the other hand, some parents treat reading as a rigid task, forcing their children to listen or focusing solely on literacy rather than the joy of storytelling. If a child resists, they may be scolded, turning reading into an obligation rather than a pleasure. As a result, the child may develop an aversion to books instead of a love for them.
Even if two families follow the exact same reading routine, outcomes can vary greatly—one child may become an avid reader at three, while another remains uninterested. Take Bailey Whitfield Diffie, the inventor of public-key cryptography, as an example. As a child, he refused to read on his own until the age of ten, insisting that his parents read to him. Imagine if his parents had panicked, scolded, or punished him for not reading independently—it might have caused lasting emotional distress. Instead, they patiently read to him until, at ten years old, he finally took the initiative to read on his own.
Every child is unique, and so are parents. All parenting theories and experiences come from others, but in the end, it’s up to parents to find what truly works for their child. This is both the challenge and beauty of parenting. There is no perfect education—only the education that best suits your child. When parents love unconditionally and provide a supportive environment, the genius within every child will naturally bloom.
As John Demartini once said:
“I am a genius, and I apply my wisdom.”
I don’t know how other teachers feel about AI, but let me tell you—I jigged and whistled when ChatGPT translated an article in seconds that would have taken me two or three hours! Then, it crafted a story from my prompt instantly.
Wow. How powerful is this?!
And suddenly—I felt powerful too. Not threatened. Empowered.
The possibilities are limitless!
And naturally, a question arose in my mind:
💡 What and how do we learn to make sense of this new AI age?
Karen Brennan, director of the Creative Computing Lab at Harvard Graduate School of Education, put it perfectly in an interview:
“In K–12 and in higher education, some of the anxiety around generative AI and potential misuse has been around a realization that maybe we are asking learners to engage in work that isn’t actually particularly powerful or meaningful. If a machine could do it, what does it mean to be asking students of all ages to be doing it?”
Exactly! If AI can do it, why do we need to?
Imagine this:
🤖 AI cooks meals, cleans the house, does the chores.
✍️ AI writes papers, generates ideas, organizes data.
🌿 And we? We are free. Free to play, explore nature, relax, create art, and pursue whatever ignites our passion.
This isn’t a time to resist change. It’s a time to redefine learning. AI isn’t replacing us—it’s freeing us to focus on what makes us human:
✨ Imagination – Dreaming beyond the ordinary.
🎨 Creativity – Innovating, designing, and expressing.
🔍 Curiosity – Asking new questions, solving complex problems.
💡 Purpose – Discovering who we are and why we are here.
The future has never been brighter! AI is our creation, and it’s time to explore new, meaningful ways to learn and grow with it.
AI assistant, let’s work together! 🚀
Meanwhile, I’m over here juggling Mount Laundry, orchestrating dinner plans like a five-star chef, chauffeuring my kid to activities, battling weeds in the yard, calling my parents, planning birthday surprises, and figuring out where we’re going for spring break. Oh, and let’s not forget writing that article I swore I’d start last week.
I trapped myself in an endless to-do list, and before I knew it, exhaustion, stress, and "Mom Mode" had become my default settings. Even with my daily yoga practice, I still felt drained—constantly rushing, worrying, and spiraling into frustration, making life feel more like a marathon than a joyful experience.
Then something magical happened.
Yesterday, after dropping my son off at the All-State Ensemble, I returned home to a silent, empty house. For the first time in what felt like forever, I listened to what I wanted.
First? Food. (Obviously.)
Then? YouTube videos I actually enjoy.
Then? A long, laughter-filled conversation with my husband.
And finally? The best night’s sleep I’ve had in years.
Today, still blissfully alone at home, I did FOUR hours of yoga (because why not?), ate my meal in peace (without any sound from an electronic device), tidied up at my own pace, and even put on a face mask in the evening.
And just like that—I felt amazing!
I realized that whenever I’m with my child, I slip into Manager Mode—planning, organizing, worrying, reminding, nagging (oops). And in doing so, I forget myself.
Ironically, this self-neglect drains the joy out of parenting and even makes my home feel heavy and stressful. Meanwhile, my son, fully capable of handling his own life, often tells me "Leave me alone!" So why am I spending so much energy worrying about his messy room?
Why am I not enjoying life like he does?
Why am I not making space for fun, relaxation, and the things I love?
Here’s the truth: The best gift we can give our children isn’t a spotless house or a perfectly planned schedule—it’s our own joy. When we take care of ourselves, we become lighter, happier, more fun, and more present. And that energy? It transforms the entire family atmosphere.
So from now on, self-care is not an afterthought—it’s a priority. Because the happier we are, the more our kids get to experience the best version of us. And really, what could be more important than that?
Take a moment today to do something that’s just for you—whether it’s dancing in the kitchen, binge-watching your favorite show, or taking a long nap (no guilt allowed).
Because the best kind of parent? A happy one. 💛
Imagine a space where children learn to navigate their emotions with confidence, feel unconditionally loved and empowered, explore with wild imagination and creativity, and connect deeply with nature and those around them. Superpower Space is an innovative afterschool program designed to equip elementary-aged children with a super mindset and social-emotional skills through fun, engaging, and transformative experiences.
At Superpower Space, we believe every child has incredible inner strengths—superpowers—that, when nurtured, empower them to thrive in all areas of life. But how can we nurture this inner power? Unlike learning math or eating food, it is often intangible and overlooked in daily life. It lies in intuition, beliefs, attitudes, and mindset, expressing itself through emotions, thoughts, and actions. Through interactive activities, storytelling, art, music, movement, breathing techniques, and hands-on experiences, we explore emotions, behaviors, and choices, helping children develop tools to understand, manage, and cultivate their personal superpower codes.
🦸 Uniqueness – Building self-acceptance and confidence.
🌟 Imagination – Encouraging creativity and innovation.
🌊 Responsibility – Empowering oneself through emotional awareness.
🤝 Connection – Communicating with nature and people with heart and mind.
💖 Gratitude – Cultivating appreciation and understanding emotional impact.
🎯 Focus – Directing, sustaining, and amplifying thoughts and emotions.
🔍 Reflection – Discovering the deeper messages in experiences.
In today’s fast-paced world, children need more than academics to succeed—they need emotional intelligence, resilience, and the ability to navigate life’s challenges with confidence. Our program provides a safe, supportive, and inspiring environment where children can explore their inner strengths and develop lifelong skills.
This class works best when parents resonate with the content and collaborate with teachers to reinforce these lessons at home. Join us in empowering the next generation to discover their Superpowers!
At Mindset Buffet, I believe that mindset is not set—it’s a belief system that you can instantly and always choose and update. Mindset shapes our emotions, thoughts, and ultimately, our actions. By choosing our mindset, we can create profound transformations in our lives, unlocking new levels of awareness, purpose, and fulfillment.
Like a buffet, personal growth is about choice. Here, you’ll find insights and strategies on mindset shifts, emotional mastery, and behavior change.
