Vanessa De Jesus Guzman
Introduction
There is a lot that pulls you in a thousand directions as a mom. You're expected to run a seamless household, support your family, spend time with friends, and look good while doing it all. Advice from family and friends doesn't help much, and instead it leaves you more confused. Your older family members suggest parenting with a heavy hand how you were raised, but that doesn't feel good to you, or your kids. You wonder... how is it that other mothers seem to have it all together? You can allow motherhood to take over your well-being, or you can get support from a licensed therapist - who looks like you and totally gets it. Together we will explore: managing unrealistic expectations of motherhood and life, regulating parenting-related stress, customizable parenting strategies, finding the balance between who you were before having kids and the life you lead now, a practical mindfulness approach to help you live and enjoy your family and your life. I firmly believe we cannot pour from an empty cup and moms need just as much space and care as kids need - if not more. If you want to be the best mother you can be, it starts with creating the time to take care of your mental and emotional wellbeing. Your kids deserve a healthier and more positive version of you - and so do you. www.freetobemindful.com
