Mantras fix everything, even school holidays.
After two decades of living a mantra-less life, I have suddenly and dramatically embraced them.

If you have no idea what a mantra is…they are quotes or sayings to help you get through tough situations. Like motherhood. Or parenting during school holidays.
I will have six kids at my house most days during these school holidays so I plan to spend most of that time keeping them entertained and the rest of the time I plan to embroider pillows all around my house with the following mantras.
You may like to write them on Post-It notes and stick them around your home or you could even type them into your phone and program them to flash up randomly throughout the day.
Because let’s be truthful: you’ll need them.
