I hope you all had a lovely Valentine’s Day! Although Valentine’s Day may have become a very commercial affair I think it is a beautiful opportunity to check in with ourselves and see how much love we are showing ourselves. It can sometimes feel easier to show love to those around us so what would it be like if you were to show yourself that same love? Is there something you could do for yourself today that you would encourage your kids to do to each other? Just something to think about before we dive into all things mindfulness!
If you have any questions for Katie, we would love to hear from you. Please leave your questions in the comments and we will do our best to answer them.

Earlier this month we had the privilege of interviewing Lindsay Kellar-Madsen, author of The Lovely Haze of Baby Daysand to participate in her virtual book tour. We loved The Lovely Haze of Baby Daysbecause it felt like an honest take on early motherhood. It was such a treat to get to speak with Lindsay to learn more about the process for her.
It is winter outside and we are still in the mists of lockdown #3 in the UK. With so many people stuck inside with their little ones, we've decided to start this series of craft and cooking ideas to keep you and the kiddos entertained.
