The greatest growth I have ever experienced has come from becoming a mama to my son, Kingston, who is now 19 months old and living his best life! And full disclosure, I’ve been wanting to share these lessons with you because they are defining who I am becoming, BUT also because they play a big role in healing our past traumas, hormones, and ultimately, our bodies.
Self-love is an important part of self-care. Your relationship with yourself is arguably the most important one you’ll have. If you can’t remember the last time you had a moment to yourself or even treated yourself to something that brings you joy, girl, we need to talk.
Recently I was having a conversation with one of my best friends and we were talking about being in our 40s and how young we feel. When I think back to being in my 20s, 40 felt so old and so far away. And when I think about how I was treating my body then… Girl, it makes me cringe. But you know, the more you live the more you learn, and this is a big takeaway I want you to walk away with today: you can always turn back the clock by making small shifts to your habits.
Managing stress is an extremely difficult task, especially during a time of confusion and isolation like we are in today. By understanding how your brain changes due to stress, you can start to shift your mindset and alter your stress response system so that you can find balance and take better care of yourself and your family.
