Motherhood is a powerful journey. It can be so heavy at times, but we wouldn’t change it for a single second. Sometimes it feels as if the house has literally flipped upside but we’re sharing some of our favorite ways to support yourself as a mama (hint, always more superfoods). You matter above all else.
Life as a working mother during the quarantine era has been challenging. When I start my day and feel flustered, overwhelmed, and not sure what to do, I typically know I'm burnt out. I want to share some tools I’ve been using in my life to help manage this pandemic burnout in the hope it might help you too!
These last couple of weeks I’ve spent cherished solo time with my eldest Kai and it’s given me some time to reflect on my journey into motherhood and how grateful I am to be raising a beautiful, strong boy. While it’s been 10 years since I brought this little man earthside, I still remember every detail of his birth. We were so blessed to have a beautiful, healthy baby, but what was supposed to be a natural birth turned into an emergency C-section and traumatic experience. I’ve decided to share this experience in the hopes to encourage other expectant mamas to take control of their birth story.
For as long as I’ve been active I’ve found creative and fun ways to do so all day long. Any other busy mamas out there know that our time is sacred and here’s the secret - you don’t have to do a long-form workout every day to stay healthy or fit. There are MANY days I don’t do a “real” organized workout and I want to share how I sneak in my workouts at home while balancing my schedule with three littles and multiple businesses.
I’ve been asked by so many of you for tips & tricks for getting your kiddos in the industry, so here’s my attempt! Please, please remember that this is my advice and my experience in LOS ANGELES. You can take it and leave a lot of it too, depending on which city you live in and depending on the needs of you and your family.
Today I'm sending Philosophie love and Mother's Day wishes to the beautiful super mamas who work so hard to give their little ones wellness + joy! My Mother's Day gift to all of you is a collection of some of the most important lessons I've learned being a mother to Kai and Leo.
I'm often asked what yoga books I use with my own childre,n so I wanted to share my favorites!
