Intentions vs. Resolutions for Sleep

December 15, 2016 by Rebecca 1 Comment

I’ve noticed a trend over the last few years moving away from New Year’s Resolutions, to New Year’s Intentions. What’s the difference? When you set a resolution, you define a problem and identify the solution. The solution is often a rigid, and far too often, ambitious goal. You either meet the goal, or you don’t. This often leads to individuals abandoning their resolution early on.

An intention, on the other hand, focuses on a way of being. Achieving that result involves more than just one action, allowing you to work towards it in a number of different ways.

If you have ever indulged in one too many cocktails, you may have experienced the sedative effect that alcohol has on your sleep. This has led to the common myth: alcohol makes you sleep better.

Sleep Regression in Older Children

November 15, 2016 by Rebecca Leave a Comment

I’ve been contacted by so many families in the last couple of weeks to chat about sleep regression in older children. Many parents told me that they waited to reach out because they thought it was too late to make improvements to their child’s sleep habits. I can’t stress enough that it’s never too late to make changes to a child’s sleep habits (or yours for that matter)!sleep regression [Read more…]

Setting an Example: Good Sleep Hygiene

August 10, 2016 by Rebecca Leave a Comment

Do you model good sleep hygiene for your children? Is that even possible if your children go to bed before you do?

I was recently invited to sit on an expert panel to discuss how mothers can make health and wellness a priority. The focus was on nutrition, fitness and sleep. The attendees were honest about how these threes pillars are often neglected, how they have overcome some of the obstacles in doing so and what still needs work.

Lego Table

July 31, 2016 by Rebecca Leave a Comment

It’s officially the middle of Summer and the boys have been home with me for most part. Having a dedicated space for them to have some quiet time has been critical for everyone’s sanity.

Kid Friendly Chili Recipe

April 14, 2016 by Rebecca Leave a Comment

With the cooler temperatures we have been experiencing in Ontario lately I’m all over “comfort food” recipes. I never liked chill as a kid (or even in my 20’s and early 30’s if I’m being honest), but I’ve been experimenting over the last couple of years with some variations. I’ve finally assembled the perfect kid friendly chili recipe for our family. It’s got just enough kick to make the adults happy, but mild enough that our kids enjoy it as well.

Are you an expecting or new parent? Sleep tends to be one of the areas that we overlook when preparing for a baby, but you can help your baby to develop healthy sleep habits from the beginning.
