As another season of extracurriculars begins to wind down, let’s do a wellness check. How are you feeling? How’s your daughter feeling? Are you energized by the life you’ve built? If not, it’s probably high time for a family debrief. 

Before signing up for any more activities, analyze the current state of affairs. Develop some collective family perspective by creating a list of mind, body, and spiritual health benchmarks to discuss. Benchmarks like meaningful family time, quality sleep, maintaining a connection with your church community, and prioritizing your marriage are just a few to keep in mind. 

We are at the helm of our commitments. If you’re in a season of disarray, press pause. Take back the wheel and resettle into the pattern of wellness God desires for you and your girl.
