Do you often lose your nerves as a mama? Try it with the hairband trick!

In order not to explode so often before the children, a mother from the USA has devised the Haarband method. The simple idea became a hit on the net.


The child's little brother. The child refuses to go. The child is dizzy. The child runs into the street without looking. The child throws with dishes, although it has already been said "a hundred times" that this is forbidden. Etc.
There are countless situations in the family day, which bring us to the rest. Especially if ten of them happen directly behind each other. Then he is simply by some, the mama-patience. And we roar.
You know that.
Actually, however, we would rather stay cool and patiently explain to the child what to do differently. For, basically , we know that children squeal very rarely, and that the reasons for defiance are often completely different .

But how do you get it to stay cool?

Shauna Harvey, a blogger and mother of a four-year-old child from the USA, has devised an interesting method to control herself and her anger: the Haarband method.
In a post on Facebook , she explains what is behind it:
"Every morning after getting up, I take 5 hairballs across my wrist and wear them until I go to sleep.These 5 hairbars stand for the moments when you lose your patience or say something ugly to your child, every time that happens You have 5 positive things to do with your child (dancing together, singing a song, reading a book together, etc.) to get the hairbands back,
Shauna Harvey also explains how she came to this method.
"I've read about studies that you need five positive actions to get a positive relationship after a bad action."

The head hewn with rage on the wall

Shauna wants to go through the Haarband exchange until it becomes a daily routine. And she already has success:
"I've often been so incredibly angry, I've already banged my head against the wall, because I could not understand why my four-year-old is so disrespectful and never listens, I've often cried daily, and today I finished the day with all 5 Hairbands on the original wrist, I'm very proud of myself that I've improved my patience with him. "
To her surprise, Shauna's Haarband method became a hit in the net. Almost 12,000 Likes has their post on Facebook already.

For beautiful tight legs: The 30 day leg challenge!

Let it burn: With this challenge, every day becomes a leg-day! As soon as the temperatures become summery again and the short pants season is up, the legs move back into the field of view. It means being prepared. Plays with our 30 day leg challenge and tightens your legs. Jumping squats for thighs and buttocks Squats, to German squats, are the absolute must-do for tight thighs and a crispy butt. Obviously, such an exercise must not be missed in a leg challenge, so we have picked out a super-effective variant in which the calves are also addressed. Here's how: Just get up, your feet are about shoulder-width apart. In order to spare your back and keep your upper body in good shape, your belly is taut. Lower your buttocks backwards as if you were going to sit down. Then you jump to the top. You can help with the arms and get some momentum (be careful not to bother your head). If this is too strenuous, or who has knee problems, shoul...

Do what you love!

In reference to the article on Facebook, I wrote that this year I have made it my job to read a book every week and you are the beneficiaries of this project because of my reading, of course, many books on the subject of independence. The first comment that followed on my posting was the demand as I create the time because and if I use apps like  Blinkist  .  For all those who do not know Blinkist: This app is an app that summarizes more than 1,500 technical books in short texts.  For the reading of these texts one does not usually need more than 15 minutes.  You can also listen to them. My answer to the question was: No, I'm not using blinkers, but I actually read the books completely.  For this I mainly use the time before bedtime.  One or two hours are left to me every day, depending on how exciting the book is and whether it is difficult for me to put the book out of my hand. But I also cover waiting times, bus or train rides by reading book...
