DAY3: It's Okay to Have Big Feelings

<p><strong>This one is for:</strong> When feelings feel HUGE - sadness,anger, disappointment, frustration, or overwhelm. Lucky reminds little ones that feelings are okay to have, and even really big feelings change and pass.</p><p><strong>Little mental muscle:</strong> Emotional regulation &amp; acceptance.</p><p>_____________________________________________________</p><p><strong>ABOUT LUCKY LOU&#39;S Bite-Sized Affirmations:</strong></p><p><em>Sometimes we need a little courage. Sometimes a little calm. Sometimes we just need to hear, “Hey, you can try again.”</em></p><p><strong>And that&#39;s when an &quot;Ahhh…THAT’S the Lucky we need today.” happens!🐾</strong></p><p>Because that&#39;s exactly how I picture this being used. Not necessarily <em>“It&#39;s Tuesday, therefore we&#39;re on Affirmation#7.”</em> 😂</p><p>A parent notices what&#39;s happening:</p><p><em>We&#39;re having a perfectionist moment.</em> → <strong>Lucky #4.</strong></p><p><em>School worry this morning.</em> → <strong>Lucky #2.</strong></p><p><em>Something went horribly wrong, and we&#39;re DONE.</em> → <strong>Lucky #6.</strong></p><p><em>Little nervous system is running at approximately 900 mph.</em> → <strong>Lucky #8.</strong></p><p>And eventually the <strong>child can choose</strong>:</p><p><strong>“Which Lucky do you think you need today?”</strong></p><p><strong>__________________________________________________</strong></p><p>At Zen 4 Little Ones, everything begins with a simple belief: the little tools we give children today can become incredibly valuable tools they carry into tomorrow.And Jo&#39;s motto is &quot;Live Like a Zen Puppy&quot;If something I&#39;ve created has brought value to a little one in your life, and you&#39;d like to help support the work behind it, you&#39;re very welcome to do so. </p><p>@ <a href="https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/ZenPuppyJo">⁠⁠https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/ZenPuppyJo⁠⁠</a>🙏 Always grateful </p><p><br></p><p></p>
