While trying to feel 100% mentally "in-sync" with your child, the most important thing to remember is to focus on yourself. It is impossible to control another person and make them want to be engaged with us, but we have full control over ourselves. It starts with our own mental engagement. Are we able to put our mind 100% into our child and simply "enjoy the moment?" Or are we constantly thinking about all of the other things that we need to get done?
With busy daily schedules, it can be hard to find the time to work on being mentally "in-sync" with your child. Make a goal to find one activity a day to work on your own mental engagement, and surprisingly your child will follow!
A simple way to work on feeling "in-sync" with our child is by doing a relaxing activity. One of our favorites is simply cloud watching. Grab a blanket, spread it out on the lawn, and relax. Depending on your child, you can choose if you will communicate about different cloud shapes that you see, or if you will just lay there holding hands enjoying the time together.
