Arriving at our appointment can often summon the words of?

 "Can you please just rub out all my aches and pains and stop it all feeling so heavy and hurry NOW please?"

We've strayed so far from our sense of wellbeing we've wound up feeling so full and tightly bound in our body. There just isn't enough space to breathe!

I will definitely get to work on releasing the hurt, aches and pains.

What you really need help with is softening, presence and grounding, because when your nervous system finds a safe place to land, your mind, body and soul can begin to unwind.

So here is the thing I've noticed about us Mama's...

We like to push the limits of our bodies, meaning we hang on by a thread, push through and function on very low resources (for long periods of time).

We also don't really plan ahead for some time out and support; either grabbing the appointment when a moments childcare unexpectedly opens up, or we are on the edge and about to crash and burn - which means we need something quick! 

 Am I riiiiight?!

I spent so much of my early years of motherhood hanging onto life by a thread. I desperately needed the support, and constantly felt overwhelmed and tired. I used to tell  myself it will get easier when they are older, but the truth is, there were days and weeks where I just didn't know if I could hang on that long!

I will never under estimate just  how precious and needed that time is for you regardless of whether your babies are really small or you have great big kids that are all grown up and flown the nest. 

Mother to mother, I see you! 

Ultimately I know you ...
You want to bring your best to them. 
Your presence, 
Your time,
and your love.

Trust me, when I say, looking after you, has so many positive impacts on not only just how you feel, but the rest of your family and relationships.
I learn't this the hard way with an epic burnout with baby number 3. I was determined with my last baby to have support and it completely transformed my post partum period, and really marked my journey into rewriting mothering from chaos to calm.  

I firmly believe it is our birth right to live, mum, and adult from a place of overflow, and this is exactly what this treatment is about!

When was the last time you paused and asked yourself

How am I today?

Maybe giving yourself and your body enough time to communicate with you?

I would put money on the fact that some time in your own energy, to find stillness and peace within,

to press pause on it all....

Is exactly what your inner being would say!

When we give so much out, sometimes we just want looking after!

This time, is ALL about YOU.
