      Finding and Maintaining Your Zen While Surviving Life

      with Young Children

      My daughter recently asked me, Mommy, what is it like to be a Mom?

      I thought about it for a minute.

      "Honey, it’s like going to the best party ever, except when it’s over, you don’t get to leave with your friends. You have to stay to clean up—alone."

      And so it is with being a parent.

      My best friend has one kid. She can travel around the world. Literally. I have three, and I successfully travel around town. On a daily basis I need to remind myself that one day, I will, in fact, miss the constant state of chaos.

      Maybe? Probably!

      So, who am I? And what makes me think I’m qualified to write a book on becoming a zen parent?

      I am you. I’m your girlfriend, your sister, your next-door neighbor. We are all the same. We have all made the decision (consciously or subconsciously) to teach a child the guidelines for this crazy thing we call life. We are all zen at the core of our being. I am hoping this guide will help you find the perfect balance to reclaim it.

      Today, I am a mom. I am a Nutritionist, Reiki
