As mothers, when asked how we’re doing, we often focus on our kids, family, or household, replying with, “We’re good, my kids are good.” While it’s important to care for our children, we often forget to care for ourselves. 💖
Most support for mothers is aimed at helping us manage our kids or families, but it rarely focuses on us, the mother. Today, I’m asking: How are YOU doing? 🤔
Today, in the midst of extreme weather in my area (cyclone alfred is here and we're advised to stay home), when asked how I was doing, I caught myself almost automatically said, “We’re okay, no damage to the house, kids are good, though bored...” 🌧️ But what I really felt was a slight overwhelm (from keeping the kids busy indoors for 3 days) and guilt for admitting it (I should know better how to do this by now, right?). 😣
Moms, when’s the last time you checked in with yourself? Are you feeling stressed, drained, stuck, or just “meh”? These are signs of nervous system dysregulation. ⚡
It’s not about neglecting your responsibilities, but caring for yourself so you can give from a place of calm, energy, and love (a regulated nervous system). 💆♀️💕
Midlife moms, how are YOU doing? Awareness and acknowledgment are the first steps, because YOU matter—not just what you do. 🙌
Why should this matter? Your emotional well-being deeply impacts your body's health. In my practice, I address your body, mind, and heart together, because without it lasting change and healing won’t happen, even with the best advice for your physical health. 💪✨
Are you feeling stuck in a life that’s negatively affecting your health? 🤯
