 This past weekend we celebrated a special day dedicated to those who are essential and significant contributors to the future of our society: MOTHERS. They are often unsung heroes: selfless, dedicated, kind and compassionate. I truly believe that in order to show up in their best, most energetic and productive way-Moms need reinforcement. Just like a car doesn’t run on empty-Moms can’t give away what they don’t have. Why not use this day as a fresh start, and give birth to our new ,confident selves? We need to be gentle, loving and kind to ourselves.; nourish our bodies with nutritious, whole foods, and choose positive and uplifting thoughts. Let’s commit to saying no to what depletes us or no longer serves us. We all have the right to say no in order to take care of ourselves. Let’s ask for support- support is a survival mechanism. Don’t deny your needs. LOVE YOUR LIFE, LOVE YOUR BODY. I recently listened to a number of health , wellness, and parenting summits; and one theme that kept coming up was the importance of and magic of self-love and self care; and how profoundly it contributes to healing and stress relief. Another theme was that of the importance of community. It’s well known that the core human need for connection is right up there behind the need for air, food and water. Families are the building blocks of community. Involving your family in your self care and/or pain relief empowers them to give back. Giving to others releases endorphins-oxytocin and other feel good chemicals. It’s a win-win. So I’m advocating for Mother’s Day being everyday. WHEN MOM IS HAPPY AND HEALTHY, THE WHOLE FAMILY THRIVES! ANOTHER IDEA; ASK FOR COACHING AS A MOTHER’S DAY GIFT-THE GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING A Coach will be your cheerleader, advocate, and best friend. I hold my clients accountable and provide the tools for transformation., so they commit to self care ,and gain energy and confidence to parent with joy and purpose.
