EVENT REPORT: MOTHERS' WELLBEING
Mother, Baby & Child|April 2023
Last month, we invited mums to join us at the Stella di Mare Hotel, Dubai Marina for our interactive 'wellbeing' themed coffee and breakfast morning, kindly supported by Babyshop, Clevamama and Al Ain Milk
EVENT REPORT: MOTHERS' WELLBEING

The event started with an introduction from Kay Marham, but rather than define ‘wellbeing’ for the audience, she went straight to members of the audience of mums to ask what ‘wellbeing’ meant to them.

WHAT DOES ‘WELLBEING’ MEAN TO MOTHERS? 

Interestingly, the most common comments from mothers was that “wellbeing means taking care of themselves, so they can better look after their families.” This is a great sum-up of a mother’s priorities - ultimately giving their children their best.

During the coffee morning, we invited expert guests to give their perspectives and advice on how to achieve greater wellbeing - and the information that came out may surprise you!

ACHIEVING WELLBEING EVERY DAY 

Aniqha Deen is a co-founder of the Honey Pot womens’ waxing salon, the Skin Candy brand of skincare and the Fusion 14 brand of batik clothing in Sri Lanka. Despite her standing as a womens’ grooming expert, Aniqha’s advice on how mothers can achieve wellness through beauty was a surprising and warmly welcome twist on their expectations!

Smile! 

Aniqha highlighted research into non-verbal communication and body language that says that if you smile at someone, there is a reflexive human instinct to smile back. Therefore, looking in someone’s eyes and smiling at them as often as you can every day means that you will be collecting warm smiles from people all day. These can include smiling at your children, colleagues, neighbours, etc.
