  • Chill, Parent! The Pause Button Practice for Calmer Mornings
    Feb 2 2026
    Hey there, friend. I'm Julia Cartwright, and I'm so glad you're here. You know, it's Sunday morning, that weird in-between time where the weekend's winding down and the week's already knocking on the door. If you've got kids, that probably means the house is a little louder than usual, everyone's got opinions about what's for breakfast, and you're wondering how you're going to survive Monday without losing your mind. Sound familiar? Well, you're in exactly the right place.

    Today, we're talking about something I call the Pause Button Practice. Because here's the thing about parenting: the hardest moments aren't usually the big dramatic ones. They're the small ones. Your kid spills juice. Someone's running late. Everyone's talking at once. And suddenly, you feel that little spark of frustration building. That's where this practice comes in.

    So let's start by just getting comfortable. Whether you're sitting, standing, or hiding in the bathroom—hey, no judgment—take a second to feel your feet. Even if you're in socks, feel the ground beneath you. Feel that solid, steady support. That's real. That's here. That's not Monday morning yet.

    Now, here's where we hit pause. I want you to take a breath in through your nose for a count of four. Feel the air moving. Cool and steady. Then out through your mouth for a count of six. Just one. Feel that? That slight pause between the rush of everything else and this moment right now? That pause is your superpower.

    Here's what I want you to do this week: Before you react to chaos, take that breath. In for four. Out for six. Just once. Kids pick up on calm like sponges pick up spills. When they see you pause instead of react, something shifts. They learn that feelings aren't emergencies. Problems aren't disasters. Challenges are just moments that need a breath first.

    Practice this three times today. Pick three small moments. Maybe it's before coffee. Maybe it's before responding to a question. Just pause. Breathe. Then move forward.

    Your kids are watching you more than they're listening to you. When you stay calm, you're teaching them calmness isn't something you're born with. It's something you practice.

  • Calm the Chaos: A Mindful Moment to Regulate and Respond
    Feb 1 2026
    Welcome back, friend. I'm Julia Cartwright, and I'm so glad you're here on this Saturday morning. If you're like me, you might be facing that peculiar Saturday chaos where everyone's home, energy levels are bouncing off the walls, and you're wondering if it's too early for coffee. Or maybe it's the quiet before the storm, and you're trying to hold onto peace. Either way, you've carved out these few minutes for yourself and your family, and that matters more than you know.

    Let's begin by just arriving here, together. Wherever you are right now—whether you're sitting, standing in the kitchen, or stealing a moment in the car—just notice what you're touching. Feel the ground beneath you or the seat supporting you. There's something grounding about that physical reminder that you're held, even when parenting feels like you're juggling in a hurricane.

    Now, let's breathe together. Take a slow breath in through your nose for a count of four. Hold it for a moment. And release through your mouth like you're gently blowing out birthday candles. Do that again. In for four. Hold. Out slowly. You're already shifting your nervous system just by doing this. Your kids are sensing this shift too, even if they don't know why.

    Here's what I want you to try today, and it's something I call the Pause and Name practice. You know those moments when your kid melts down over the wrong cereal, and you feel that familiar heat rising in your chest? That's your cue. Pause. Don't react yet. Just notice what you're feeling without judgment. Are you frustrated? Tired? Maybe underneath it, you're worried they're going to have a bad day. Name it silently. "I'm feeling frustrated right now." That's it. The magic isn't in fixing anything immediately. It's in creating space between what's happening and how you respond. When you do that, your child learns they can do the same thing.

    This practice teaches your kids that feelings are weather patterns, not emergencies. They come, they move through, and they go. And you're the calm anchor in that storm.

    So today, pick one moment when things start to escalate. Maybe it's bedtime or the breakfast table. Just pause, breathe the way we did together, and name what you're feeling. Notice how differently your child responds when you're regulated instead of reactive.

    Thank you so much for joining me on Mindful Parenting: Daily Tips for Raising Calm Kids. If this resonated with you, please subscribe wherever you're listening. You're building something beautiful here—a calmer home, one mindful moment at a time.

  • Pause and Breathe: Cultivating Calm Amidst the Chaos of Parenting
    Jan 30 2026
    Hey there, friend. I'm Julia, and I'm so glad you're here. It's Thursday morning, and if you're anything like the parents I talk to, there's probably a low hum of tension already running through your day. Maybe someone spilled juice, maybe the homework battle's brewing, or maybe you just woke up knowing it's going to be one of those days. Whatever it is, you're here, and that's exactly right.

    Let's take a moment together to actually feel grounded before the day picks up speed.

    Go ahead and find a comfortable seat wherever you are. You don't need to look peaceful or sit perfectly still. Just find a place where your body feels supported. Close your eyes if that feels good, or soften your gaze downward. We're just going to notice our breath for a moment, the way you might notice the smell of fresh bread cooling on a windowsill. Not trying to change it, just acknowledging it's there.

    Breathe in slowly through your nose, and as you do, imagine you're breathing in calm, steady energy. Hold it for just a beat. Now exhale through your mouth with intention, like you're releasing tension with your breath. Do that three more times. In through the nose. Out through the mouth. Each breath getting a little easier.

    Here's what happens when our kids see us frazzled: they absorb that energy like little sponges. So right now, we're not just calming ourselves. We're modeling something profound. We're showing our kids that it's possible to pause, to reset, to choose peace even when chaos is knocking on the door.

    When your child has a meltdown today, or when you feel frustration rising in your chest, try this. Stop for five seconds. Just five. Feel your feet on the ground. Take one intentional breath. That's it. You're not fixing anything yet. You're not even responding. You're just creating a tiny space between the trigger and your reaction. That space is where wisdom lives.

    Your calm is contagious. It's the most powerful parenting tool you have.
