Micro practices for busy parents

 You are wrapping up work, but your inbox is still full. Your child is tugging at your sleeve, eager for attention. You are exhausted, but there is still so much to do. Sound familiar?

You are not alone. Balancing a demanding job and family life often feels like a race with no finish line. You crave time for yourself - to breathe, to reset - but where does that fit into a schedule packed with meetings, deadlines, and bedtime stories?

Here’s the shift: Presence isn’t about finding extra time. It’s about using small moments differently.

The 30-Second Pause That Changes Everything

Try this: Before switching from work mode to home mode, pause.
1. Feel your feet on the ground.
2. Notice the sounds around you.
3. Exhale and notice the pause before inhalation.

That’s it. Less than 30 seconds.

A micro-practice to help you shift from stress to connection - without adding another task to your day.

Being present doesn’t require extra time; it's just a choice to pause.

Try it today. And if you want more micro-practices that will become a habit, let’s connect.
