Screen Time vs.Face Time

I have been off the grid since Wednesday night, but not completely, in my line of work I am on call and available, although it was nice to be with family, my mind was ready for support and action.

The following article really struck a chord about our world today, and how at family gatherings everyone could easily be on all the different electronic devices instead of bonding and hanging out together.

I am so happy that my kids know the concept of turning everything off, we do it every Friday night to Saturday night.  We did it even longer because of the Jewish New Year, we have not had any TV, Computer, Car, or Music and we survived.  The article above talks about how when people have too much screen time, they are not able to function as well in Face to Face time, they cannot read people as good, I find this very powerful.

My good friend who has battled anorexia and bulimia and has risen above with many support programs, calls me a normie.  I do not understand addiction, feeling helpless, feeling lost, all I know how to do is deal and problem solve.  Even as a mother, I have had some extreme situations with my kids, all I can do is get into a zone where I focus on the situation and deal with it, I have to digest it later, but ultimately I have to deal head on.

I feel energy, and I feel vibes, but unless someone tells me exactly how they feel or what they need, my brain automatically focuses on how I can best attend to the situation at hand.  My goal in everything that I do as Coach Yulia is to empower and support my clients, so that they go through an experience full on, conscious, and feel good about all the choices that they made.

The only way for me to stay sane and balanced is to stay in my happy space.  Everything I do comes from a genuine feeling of wanting people to consciously choose what is right for them.  In my Yoga classes my ongoing message is to connect the mind and body, tune into what you need in the moment, every day is different, every experience is different, think of nothing, feel everything.

It is amazing to become a parent,
You really get into a space of I am just going to do my best,
I feel this is the healthiest frame of mind to be,
