Wow this year has been a doozy! So much so that I wanted to skip the year in review post all together and just slide into 2021. When i asked parents and friends what they were celebrating from 2020 I got some pretty great responses and they encouraged me to reflect with gratitude on 2020.
“2020 was definitely a year of lessons”
“The connections made this year were amazing and that is what I am celebrating”
“I’m happy more people are supporting small businesses”
“I’m celebrating finding myself again”
“2020 gave me more family time, more patience and gratitude”
“I had time to put everything I wanted into action. It felt like a “what have you got to loose” kind of year" so I tried all of the things.”
“Even in darker times, we should look around us with awe, taking in the beautiful scenes and small wonders that surely abound…We are not supposed to miss this moment…this life. But we do, all frazzled, stressed, an stripped away from the moment.” -Brendon Burchard (Motivation Manifesto)
As I reflect back on 2020, it is not all darkness. 2020 had a lot of newness for me and my family. 2020 had a lot of lessons. 2020 has taught me/ forced me, and many of you, to slow down and take a look at life, to learn ways to manage stress, to enjoy the moments. During our time at home, we were forced to slow down because all non essential activities were cancelled. This afforded me time to read, to spend time with family, to spend time outdoors.
Top book: From The Ashes by Jesse Thistle. I could not put this book down and kept expecting Jesse to be dead when I turned the page. I won’t spoil it for you. It’s a great book about resilience.
Top hike: We hiked a lot of new trails and repeated a lot of our favorites. Lille Ghost Town hike was our kids favorite so we hiked it 5 times this year! We are looking for new hikes closer to Medicine Hat.
Top donut: we moved to Medicine Hat and have explored the local bakeries. Hands down Redcliff Bakery is our favorite place to take friends, and to go for an after school treat that feels “normal”.
Top Stress Buster: Going for a walk.
Best Family Activity: Sunday theme dinners were created during covid. We ordered sushi and this prompted our kids to act out a Samurai fight. Other themes included Greek, British, and Medieval. There was always a fight scene, lol!
2020 brought on a move, which meant a new house, new school, new friends, and a new puppy!
1.Biggest Lessons: We launched a best of Discover Your Sensational Path Podcast featuring the most listened to episodes.
2.It’s ok to not be ok. 2020 threw a whole mix of emotions, anxieties and uncertainties at us. As we discussed in my podcast interview with Kim Barthel, we learned that what ever we are feeling is ok. We talked about how naming those feelings helps us move past them.
3.There’s always a reason for behaviour. In June I was noticing children having big reactions to seemingly small problems. This prompted me to share my online course The Roots of behaviour to help parents learn the reasons for their child’s behaviour and tools to manage behaviour at home.
4.The importance of a comprehensive sensory assessment. Dr Ayres never intended for sensory questionnaires to be stand alone tools. A comprehensive sensory assessment gets to the root of the issue and helps us plan interventions.
5.So many more podcasts to come.
