You deserve to have the tools to allow you to be at your best. Motherhood isn't easy and it can be helpful to put effort into replenishing your own energy in order to be the best mum you can be! Most of us internalise lots of messages around how to be a good mother, friend, daughter and other roles, but rarely are we shown how to be a great version of ourselves, in touch with how we feel. Succeeding in your roles is fulfilling but doesn't always equate to feeling connected to yourself, and many people, mums included, can't help wondering if there's something missing from their experience of life.
HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
There are many ways we tend to measure our lives and achievements by - education, finances, job titles, a happy marriage, our circle of friends etc. These can come from our internal beliefs or societal standards and expectations. It's totally normal to be influenced by these factors! However, as you mature and grow into motherhood, many women start to look a little deeper into themselves and begin to feel the urge to seek out something beyond these ideas, in order to live more intentionally. Most of us agree that we can only give what we've got within us, and so, nourishing and connecting to yourself is not a selfish pursuit, but actually allows you to give more to your relationships and your role as a mum, because you have more of what you need in life and are under less stress or strain.
