Not the dramatic kind — the missed nativity, the birthday cake that bore no resemblance to the picture. Those are the ones we laugh about eventually, usually at someone else’s kitchen table with a glass of wine. I mean the quiet kind. The is-this-enough kind. The one that arrives somewhere between putting the washing on and finally sitting down. We are living through an era of extraordinary information about child...]]></description><link>https://www.thriveandflow.co.uk/post/the-water-why-showing-up-imperfectly-repeatedly-on-the-hard-days-too-is-the-whole-thing</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69cb820be7de3cb00609b92e</guid><pubDate>Tue, 31 Mar 2026 08:15:27 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>myiangou</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Roots - What Anxiety Really Looks Like in Children]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Magic Beanstalk Series - Article 3 Roots are invisible. They grow underground, quietly and without fanfare. Nobody sees them forming. Nobody notices their work. And yet without them — nothing stands. Some of our most anxious children are exactly like this. Invisible. Quiet. Doing all their work entirely underground. But not all of them. We tend to think of childhood anxiety as something we’d recognise immediately. Tears at the school gate. Refusal. The child whose distress fills the room....]]></description><link>https://www.thriveandflow.co.uk/post/the-roots-what-anxiety-really-looks-like-in-children</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69c24c6e69ed8cb882ad04e1</guid><pubDate>Tue, 24 Mar 2026 08:36:15 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>myiangou</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Soil — Growing Up in an Imperfect World]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Magic Beanstalk Series — Small Practices, Big Roots — Article 2   The soil is never perfect. It is messy, sometimes rocky, occasionally waterlogged and frequently full of things we didn't plan for. And yet — remarkable things grow in imperfect soil every single day. Sound familiar? Picture the scene. A Sunday morning café. Coffee in hand, finally — finally — a moment of stillness. Except nearby, a little one is having a very big moment, and their parent is doing their absolute best to...]]></description><link>https://www.thriveandflow.co.uk/post/the-magic-beanstalk-series-1</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69b99d2c3219c844499331aa</guid><pubDate>Tue, 17 Mar 2026 18:29:30 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>myiangou</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Seed — Why a Yoga Class Is Never Just a Yoga Class]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Magic Beanstalk Series — Small Practices, Big Roots — Article 1   There is a moment in almost every children's yoga session that has nothing to do with yoga. It is the moment a child realises they have been seen. Not praised for being the best, not corrected for doing it wrong — simply noticed. Acknowledged. Held in a space where they are enough, exactly as they are. It is a small moment. It passes quickly. But I believe, with everything I have, that it plants something. When I tell...]]></description><link>https://www.thriveandflow.co.uk/post/the-seed-children-s-yoga-bishop-s-stortford</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69b51030c0bc1d0b8ea16873</guid><pubDate>Sat, 14 Mar 2026 07:44:43 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>myiangou</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
